Episode 20 - Dharma Your Way. The Personal Path of Harmony

Dharma Shay is a Martial Artist, Personal Trainer, Health Coach, and founder of a fitness movement on the Big Island of Hawaii. He is the creator and owner of Hawaii Urban Training and The Brave Fitness Facility. These organizations provide valuable coaching, equipment and quality training to the community of the big island by breaking away from your traditional gym environment taking fitness to the community.

Dharma grew up with martial arts in his life from the time he was born. His father, a Chinese herbalist and acupuncturist exposed Dharma and his siblings to a diverse collection of Martial Professionals and teachers of both modern and traditional backgrounds. As a teen Dharma competed in karate, mui thai, jin jitsu, and qi gong. Over the years his training included Hung Gar, Ba Ji Quan, and Xing Xi Quan. In 2005 he traveled to china where he studied at the shaolin temple for 4 months.

After returning to Hawaii Dharma wanted to help people reach their full physical potential. In 2013 Dharma began Hawaii Urban Training (HUT). A community based fitness movement completely free to the public ran by certified and experienced personal trainers. The goal of HUT is to build a sense of ownership and direction for health and wellness both on a personal and community level.

In this episode I’ll be speaking with dharma about how his life has been shaped by martial arts, and his path of self discovery. I'll also speak with him about his engaging role in the health community, and what’s next for dharma in the years to come.
