Hello, I am David Stacy, owner and boxing/Greco-Roman Wrestling trainer, women's cardio kickboxing instructor, MMA Fitness, and head Personal trainer at Octagon Gym.  I am currently accredited through the American Sports and Fitness Association.  (Private Personal Training by Appointment).  Additionally I  provide members with supplement and nutrition advice as well as developing safe programs that will help competitors make weight at competitions.  I also provide members with FREE memberships to Complete Nutrition (High Point and Greensboro locations).

My martial arts training consists primarily of boxing and wrestling, but I have trained Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai kickboxing as well.  In my classes you'll learn what is known as "dirty boxing", which is a combination of boxing and stand-up grappling.  The difference between traditional boxing and "dirty boxing" is the use of elbows, striking in the clinch, and takedowns are all legal.  I also spend time working on ground-and-pound techniques, which do not really fall under the realm of any particular martial art, but is extremely important for MMA competition and self-defense.  

I look to continue my training in various disciplines and passing on this information to our members.
