Yuchen Chia

From a young age, Yuchen found himself frequently involved in schoolyard conflicts, often forced to defend himself in the absence of any formal training. Determined to stand up to bullies, he immersed himself in various martial arts, including Boxing, Muay Thai, Wushu, Karate, and Silat. Despite achieving short-term victories, Yuchen soon realized that traditional martial arts alone were insufficient against larger opponents, multiple attackers, or weapon threats.

This realization led him to discover Krav Maga, igniting a lifelong journey into mastering self-defense and combat systems. In 2022, Yuchen became a certified IKMF Instructor, a milestone that marked the beginning of his mission to empower others. His commitment deepened after the tragic loss of a close friend to street violence, fueling his resolve to teach practical self-defense skills that can save lives.

Yuchen’s passion is rooted in a desire to equip individuals with the skills necessary to protect themselves and their loved ones in any dangerous situation. He dedicates his life to ensuring that no one else suffers the same fate as his friend, “so that one may walk in peace”.
