​Master Dara Siassi is a dedicated and experienced martial arts instructor with a Doctorate in Pharmacy and a lifetime of experience in Martial Arts and fitness.  He believes that true health goes beyond medication-  it's about prevention, strength, and balance.  Being both a pharmacist and martial artist, he focuses on four pillars of personal growth: 

 

1. Physical Health (improving strength, flexibility, and endurance)

2. Mental Wellness (reducing stress and building focus though mindfulness, breathing, and meditation)

3. Self Defense skills to protect yourself and your loved ones       

4. Preventive Health for lifelong wellness.

​

That is why he combined his background in healthcare, Taekwondo, Krav Maga, Fitness, and Yoga to create IWMA.  His goal is to empower individuals to take control of their health - physically, mentally, and emotionally - while learning skills that can last a lifetime.
