Rino's Muay Thai journey began with a simple invitation from a friend. A dedicated kickboxing/mma fighter who invited him to his gym to try a session out. The second he wrapped his hands and hit the pads everything clicked. His dedication quickly led him to Team Goat Locker Boxing and Muay Thai Gym, where he fully immersed himself as a scholar of the game and a fighter.

He began actively competing in Muay Thai events, tournaments, and smokers. In 2013, he stepped into the ring for his final fight before making a move to United States. He shifted his focus to coaching active mma fighters for competition eventually cornering and guiding one of his fighters to a championship belt.

He is also a certified Kru under Biagtan Muay Thai, a world class system renowned for producing ISKA and WBC champions as well as training elite fighters actively competing in One Championship.

Now with his 20 plus years of practicing the Art of Eight Limbs, He is excited to share his knowledge and passion for Muay Thai here in Rapid City. Whether you are stepping onto the mats or looking to sharpen your striking for competition, his goal is to pass down the authentic discipline and mechanics of the sport.
