About Us

Blaze Bio

Blaze Pearson has been a student of martial arts for over 15 years. He has trained in BJJ, Muay Thai and Boxing, but feels like he found a home for his strengths and experiences in Krav Maga. Preferring a mixed combat approach to self defense, Krav Maga provided a freedom to utilize all of his training.

After losing a sister to domestic violence, Blaze switched the focus of his training from himself to others. He devoted his life to empowering others both physically and emotionally. He has since become a martial arts instructor with multiple certifications such as Krav Maga Universal, Premier Martial Arts and Muay Thai Fitness. He is also a certified personal life coach and group facilitator. 

Blaze and his wife, Carly, have recently started Torch Martial Arts & Fitness in Hiram, Ga to further this mission. Torch Martial Arts & Fitness seeks to Empower, Preserve and Protect our community through martial arts and fitness.
