Criss Moosman
Criss is a lifelong student of Budo and a firm believer in Bruce Lee's philosophy: “Using no way as way, using no limitation as limitation. Absorb what is useful, and reject what is useless for you.”
Criss began training at age ten through Police Athletic League boxing and kickboxing, and by sixteen was competing in amateur boxing and kickboxing. His experience later expanded into professional Muay Thai and MMA competition, giving him a deep foundation in striking, pressure testing, and practical application.
After serving in the U.S. Army's 3/75 Ranger Regiment with multiple deployments, Criss continued building on his real-world training experience. He is also a certified NRA firearms instructor with more than 30 years of firearms experience, teaching safety, fundamentals of marksmanship, drawstroke, stoppage clearing, and common beginner mistakes. His instruction follows the KISS — “Keep It Simple” — approach to help students build confidence and develop realistic skills that hold up under stress.
Criss later returned to Arizona and continued his pursuit of real-world self-defense through Krav Maga, earning full instructor and law enforcement trainer certification under Darrin Levine of Krav Maga Worldwide.
Criss went on to open and operate multiple schools across the Phoenix metro area, coaching Krav Maga and Muay Thai for nearly ten years. During that time, he trained professional and amateur fighters across MMA, Muay Thai, and boxing, while also consulting with the Phoenix Gang Unit on de-escalation, situational awareness, weapon retention, and performance under high-adrenaline conditions.
