FITNESS

Sifu Beverly Pratka brings over 15 years of dedicated experience in functional fitness, expertly combining her extensive background as an active combat sports athlete. Having competed in some of the most physically demanding disciplines, including kickboxing and MMA, she has consistently tested her limits and achieved remarkable success as a Kickboxing National Champion, Pan American Silver Medalist, and Team USA Fighter. Drawing on her wealth of experience, Beverly has developed a comprehensive training system centered around kickboxing-style workouts that enhance both strength and agility. Additionally, as a certified Action Strength Coach, she incorporates bodyweight training, kettlebell workouts, and the Gada (Indian Mace) into her programs, ensuring a well-rounded approach to fitness that empowers her clients to reach their full potential.

SELF DEFENSE

Beverly has dedicated the past 15 years to teaching self-defense, distinguished as one of only two individuals ever promoted to "Sifu" in Jeet Kune Do by Sifu Singh. Renowned as an elite competitor in combat sports, Beverly has also taught military, law enforcement, and government agencies across the country. Her unique experiences as the sole female training alongside elite fighters—often larger and stronger than herself—have compelled her to develop innovative adaptations that offer invaluable insights for smaller women, which her male counterparts may overlook. Beverly’s approach extends beyond the physical components of self-defense; she emphasizes the importance of situational awareness, verbal de-escalation, stress management, emotional control, conflict prevention, and post-conflict training, equipping her students with comprehensive skills to navigate and respond to challenging situations effectively.

WELLNESS

Beverly's extensive knowledge of wellness stems from her years of rigorous fight camps in preparation for competition. This demanding journey compelled her to explore every available method to maintain optimal health, balance, and performance. As a result, she sought guidance from leading experts in healing, nutrition, and recovery, as well as holistic and esoteric practices employed by warrior cultures worldwide. Through this comprehensive exploration, Beverly has cultivated a deep understanding of wellness that she now integrates into her training programs, empowering others to achieve their highest potential.
