Beau Bourdon
"I could not envision a better life than one teaching children and adults kung fu." Recognized for his warm smile and diligent work ethic, Beau Bourdon earned his Black Belt in 2006 and is consideration for his second degree by the Peaceful Mind Way Kung Fu Association. Early on, Beau began assisting with classes, then teaching. He rose through the ranks to become a top student, helping to manage the Tarzana School in California. Through consistent training and hard work, Beau was awarded the position of Chief Instructor at the AKF Louisville location. Beau, along with his fiancee Dana, now live in Lousiville to run the school full-time. Beau is also skilled in the culinary arts. At school functions, his honey bbq ribs are a favorite. Exibiting his humble side, he often serves a delicious hot tea after. |
Dana Reynolds
With no prior experience in martial arts, Dana has found her life’s path in training and teaching Peaceful Mind Way kung fu. She was eager to teach classes early on, and began doing so at the rank of brown belt, 2nd degree. Her hard work and dedication was recognized in 2005 as she was honored as “Teacher of the Year." She notes that it is her desire to help others live better lives through kung fu that motivates her, and she thanks her teacher, Master Steve Pisa, for doing just that for her. Dana’s passion lies not only with martial arts, but with the study of psychology, earning her B.A. in the field at California State University, Northridge. She has also been an active volunteer for the 4-H Club, helping teach various subjects to kids and teens. |
