Gerry Barone
Gerry has had a very long career of studying the marital arts. He learned basic karate from his father at the age of 5. This sparked his interest for a lifetime. His official training started with Tae Kwon Do during the late 80’s at a Hong Kong Kim school in Newport, KY where he received rank of red belt/black tip. After his great success in Tae Kwon Doe, he decided to broaden his knowledge by pursuing a new style of training. At this time, he met Eldon Clem at the Cincinnati Academy of the Martial arts (later I.M.B. of Cincinnati) from around 1991 to sometime into late 90’s. The curriculum incorporated Jeet Kune Do concepts, kickboxing and trapping, Boxing, Muay Thai, Kali/Escrima, some Shoot Wrestling, while also incorporating Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. While he religiously studied with Eldon, he was afforded some tremendous opportunities to study with some of the great martial artists of our time.
Throughout the course of the 90’s, Gerry supplemented his training by taking seminars with Guro Don Edwards, Cliff Derry (Doce Pares), Dan Inosanto (Jeet Kune Do), and private lessons with Eric Haycraft (Muay Thai), Saksem Kanthawong (Muay Thai Kickboxing), and Carlson Gracie (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu). He was an instructor at Impact Martial Arts where he taught Progressive Fighting Systems as a Phase 1 instructor. While continuing to teach, he also pursued his interests in Handgun Training at the Tactical Training Center (now Tactical Defense Institute). He progressed through the Level I, II, and III courses and graduated in 1997 from this school. He continued his teaching at FITE in submission grappling for several years. Gerry is now a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu after spending the time studying with Bill Peace (Son of Siam), Nick Albin (BJJ Black Belt), and Alex Miller (BJJ Black Belt). We are very honored and lucky to have such a qualified instructor at Fit Philosophie!

Clyde Arnold
“My pledge to you as your self-defense instructor, is to provide the most up to date, efficient and effective means to protecting yourself and the ones you love. You’re not coming to me to go through rituals, wear a uniform, or learn old techniques that might have worked a very long time ago. You want the hard truth and how it applies to the situations of today. Let’s face it, when it comes to unarmed Combatives, no one single style or system holds a patent on the truth and as you learn new skills there should be no doubt in your mind about the effectiveness.”
