Hi there! My name is Angel Ayala, and I've been practicing martial arts for 16 years. I have a deep passion for teaching and have experience working with students of all ages, from kids to adults. As a certified instructor, I was the head instructor for 12 years at 360 Defense Norwich, where I had the opportunity to teach and inspire others in the art of self-defense and martial arts.

I find great joy and fulfillment in sharing my love for martial arts with others and helping them achieve their goals. I am dedicated to helping people improve their lives through martial arts by building confidence, discipline, and a positive mindset. I'm looking forward to connecting with you all and sharing the awesome journey of martial arts together! Have a great day!

ANGEL AYALA

Head Instructor

My Name Marc Nee and I’ve been training in the 360 Defense system since 2016 under Charlie McShane and Angel Ayala. I received my 1st degree in the 360 defense system at the age of 54 and earned my 2nd degree at the age of 59. Proving that you're never too old to start Martial Arts and especially the 360 Defense system!

When I’m not teaching or training at the Dojo I spend my time in private practice with my wife as a licensed Psychotherapist specializing in Trauma, addiction, and mens issues or at the gym training where I spent 10 years as a personal trainer, Group exercise instructor and high ropes and team building instructor through Project Adventure.

Safe to say I like people, and helping them become the best versions of themselves in a safe supportive environment is my highest priority! So come on down and build your confidence, get in shape and have some fun in a safe, family friendly, environment. I look forward to meeting you!
