KOIFISH PROPHET

INSPIRED EMPOWERED TRANSFORMED

WHY THE KOI FISH?

The koi fish legend narrates the story of koi fish as they swim upstream against the current of the Yellow River. Facing formidable challenges, at the end of the river there was a waterfall, attempting to swim up it they would fall and the noise would attract demons. For their sadistic pleasure these demons would make the waterfall taller and taller. However it is said that when a koi successfully scales the waterfall and leaps over the Golden Gate, lightning strikes it, and it would grow a dragons body Accomplishing its goal, this now all mighty dragon could fly freely to live the life it has always wanted.

This quest embodies the trials and triumphs of our own lives. Just as the koi overcomes the river’s relentless flow, we too conquer obstacles through perseverance and unwavering determination. Central to our narrative is the mythic leap over the Golden Gate. The koi that surmounts this obstacle undergoes a miraculous metamorphosis into a powerful dragon. Similarly, we stand before our own “Golden Gate.” With resilience as our guide, we inspire each other to leap fearlessly, embracing change and emerging stronger than before.

My philosophy celebrates going against the current, embodying the koi’s spirit in our daily pursuits. We sculpt not only our bodies but also our destinies, channeling the koi’s defiance to create our own narratives of strength and resilience. Together, we break free from limitations and evolve into the dragons we are destined to be.

Join me today! Where martial arts and fitness converge with the legend of the koi. Discover your inner dragon, surmount the challenges, and triumph as a testament to your perseverance. In this tale of transformation, we find purpose, and the unshakable power to shape our destinies.

Kru Koi (Matt) has been instrumental in improving my Muay Thai practice. I've been training for awhile but I needed a skilled professional to identify my flaws, break them into fundamentals and correct them one by one. What sets Matt apart is his communication style. He explained all the 'whys' which were important for me to understand. The whys included "why" I wasn't efficient with my movements and "why" I needed to move in a certain ways. But above all, I always have fun being taught by him and have a few good laughs along the way.

Highly recommended!! Matt is a great coach, I always enjoy his classes. They are FUN, challenging and they work your body and your mind. My Muay Thai technique has improved so much and it feels so empowering!! Matt graciously corrects my form and pushes me one step further every time. I always leave his class feeling stronger and more proficient in Muay Thai than when I went in. Oh, did I mention body weight conditioning?? Simple and effective, but damn hard! Thank you, Matt!

He is patient, intuitive, and clever in his teaching style. I am thoroughly looking forward to more private sessions with him! If you want to move forward with your Muay Thai practice, I wholeheartedly recommend hiring Matt as your coach!

Matt Ayuen is a very passionate, talented and knowledgeable martial artist. This clearly translates in his work as a coach. Matt doesn’t just teach you how to throw a kick or a punch. Any instructor can relay any form of information to their students. What makes Matt Ayuen so special as a coach is that along with teaching you how to kick and punch and all that fun stuff, he will also inspire you to kick, punch, be intentional about what you do and to keep implementing your practice in not only your martial arts training but your life and personal development as well over all.
Victoria Bogdan
