Hailing from Hawaii and San Francisco, Ed has spent his life helping others be their best. He worked as a high-school teacher and soccer coach before taking on his current role at a San Francisco based non-profit addressing the challenges of low income families in California.

Everyone who works and trains with Ed is touched by his warmth, enthusiasm, and positivity. He’s a self-described motivational powerhouse who gets his trainees through tough times and over the goal line.

When he’s not fighting poverty or rallying Kenzai trainees, you can find Ed out on the coastal headlands bird-watching for eagles and hawks, playing soccer with his local club, or perfecting his grilling skills with his 2 kids at home.

Location: San Francisco, California

Training philosophy: “Eat good things, move everyday, and get enough sleep.”
