Alex has dedicated over 25 years to martial arts. With over 15 years of experience coaching Muay Thai, he has played a pivotal role in training elite level fighters from across the world in both MMA and Muay Thai. 

Alex started karate at the age of four.  He tried out different traditional martial arts for almost a decade before falling in love with the more modern combat sports at the age of 12.

After developing a passion for Muay Thai, he made his professional debut at 16 (after 15 amateur fights) against an experienced Thai fighter in Thailand.  Thus began his career at the renowned Jockygym in Bangkok. This legendary camp, known for its technical style, produced esteemed fighters like Seanchai Sor Kingstar, Lerdsila Chumpaetour, and Somrak Kamsing. 

Alex counts himself lucky as being one of the few people alive who have been personally trained in the finer aspects of coaching Muay Thai by Ajarn Pipa Jockygym himself. The high intensity, interactive pad work style he teaches is directly inspired by his teacher and adapted for his students to suit their respective fighting arts.
