Team
OUR TRAINER
With over 30 years of experience in Martial Arts and Security, I specialize in Thai Boxing, Boxing and Grappling. I operated “Wisdom Doorstaff NZ Ltd,” a leading security company in Downtown Auckland, for 10 years, endorsed by Senior Sergeant John Potts. My team secured 14 nightclubs and numerous bars across Auckland and beyond.
I started my Thai Boxing journey at Marsters Freestyle Gym in 1990, training alongside Roger (Wild) Earp and Mark (Super Samoan) Hunt. Though I had 16 amateur fights, my focus remained on my security business.
From 2007 to 2017, I lived in Rarotonga, Cook Islands, where I founded the Titikaveka Gym. I trained people in resistance training, full-body circuits, and self-defence there. The gym, now the largest in Rarotonga, continues to operate, promoting self-defence through Muay Thai Boxing.
I teach self-defence kickboxing to children, teens, and adults at the Kumeu Gym. My program, Clement Martial Arts, fosters self-esteem, confidence, and discipline, helping students of all ages thrive.
PAST:
Our voyage commenced within the confines of Marsters Freestyle Gym, nestled at the heart of Downtown Auckland on Fort and Gore St back in 1990. This establishment was among the pioneering Muay Thai Kick Boxing Gyms in Auckland, actively engaging in battles throughout New Zealand and influencing the prominent fight nights and events of its era.
A rich amalgamation of diverse martial arts styles cultivated over three decades of practice has shaped our philosophy. While retaining the core tenets of self-defense, our focus transcends the realm of competition. We emphasize empowering ordinary individuals who seek refuge within martial arts for protection, discipline, and personal growth. In the face of potential confrontations, we equip our students to harness their inner strength without resorting to violence.
Clement Martial Arts stands as a beacon of practical self-defense education. Our mission is to instill genuine self-confidence among people from all walks of life—children, teenagers, and adults alike. By fostering a sense of security and nurturing true self-esteem, we go beyond teaching mere techniques.
PRESENT:
Clement Martial Arts stands as a tribute to the memory of Clement Julius Manuel, a life tragically extinguished at the tender age of 28 on 10/08/2020, inspiring our namesake.
The name “Clement,” resonating with the essence of mercy and tranquility before the storm, encapsulates the ethos of our establishment. In honor of Clement Julius Manuel, we persevere in our commitment to imparting knowledge and fostering personal growth through martial arts.
