Mr. Boecker resides in Dallas, TX and continues to share his love for martial arts in the business through training and the business side. He still continues to have a very active lifestyle and a positive impact in the lives of others. For 23 years USA Martial Arts Leadership Academy has been living with strength and unity of martial arts. It started off as a dream and began in a tiny 600 square foot room, which has currently manifested into spacious, clean, and modern facilities. Although small in size it did not take long to grow large in talent, skill, and spirit. Now he has over 5 locations across the metroplex representing the USA Martial Arts name.

As he continued to expand, his talents, his skills and titles grew along with his size of his team. In the early 1980s he realized his true passion was teaching and training and decided to retire from active competition and build a new breed of martial arts. He began by teaching multiple styles of martial arts, like Bruce Lee, blending the best strengths of each martial arts while studying and learning the psychology of excellence. The concept led into an entire lifestyle curriculum, and the innovative approach soon brought a lot of attention to our team in the martial arts industry. It gave instant recognition. Students were leaning more than kicking and punching and were becoming Martial Arts Leaders. Excellence and knowledge were what separated them. The program represents mind, body and spirit. Our mixed martial arts schools are 100% committed to teaching what is known as the ABC’s of a martial arts Leadership Academy and includes a dynamic curriculum of not only great martial arts, but also goal setting, leadership, self-discipline, and mutual respect in relationship building. More than 1000 students train daily at USA Martial Arts Leadership Academies across the metroplex and utilize the latest and most modern training methods. Our programs are recognized nationally as the leading edge in the development of peak performance. Our programs continue to receive national awards for the dynamic content.
