About this listen
In this powerful episode of #ImpactMyLife, Jason welcomes one of his oldest friends and longtime training partners, Shihan Craig Haley, owner of Elite Force Martial Arts in Deerfield Beach, FL. Together they revisit their early days on the mats, the rivalry-turned-brotherhood that shaped their lives, and how their shared passion for martial arts became the foundation for two meaningful careers.
Jason and Craig dive deep into how martial arts has evolved over the last 30+ years, why character development matters now more than ever, and how traditional values like discipline, confidence, and respect continue to transform both kids and adults. They discuss smart training philosophies, the importance of safe and sustainable sparring, and the role of community in helping students thrive on and off the mat.
Craig also opens up about overcoming a major challenge this year, a devastating fire at his dojo — and how mindset, support, and resilience carried him through. Whether you're a parent, student, or adult considering your first class, this episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and actionable insights from two lifelong martial artists who live what they teach.
