Beginners to more advanced students will all work and learn at their own pace. Masters of Movement isn’t about being elite it is about being the best you can be and reaching your personal potential.
“There is no magic in any particular tool, system or method. True magic is found in daily consistent and dedicated practice. Dedicate yourself to mastery. Find your passion and spend the rest of your life becoming the best you can be. Remember that mastery is not a destination. Always slightly out of reach, we seek it and it changes us. We move closer only to see how far we are. We transform because we persevere and continue our journey despite its hardships, this is what Masters of Movement is about. “Shawn Mozen

Heather’s experience in the ocean started at a very early age. As a third generation to be born and raised on the Big Island of Hawaii, her Mother taught her how to body surf at age four. By age eight, boogie boarding was a natural progression and she received her first boogie board on her 8th birthday. By age 15, she got her driver’s license and couldn’t wait to drive herself to the other side of the island that was more ideal for surfing.
The rugged, south side of the island Heather grew up surfing on, meant also dealing with shallow reefs and big trade wind swells. This conditioning at an early age allowed her to travel and surf anywhere her adventurous spirit led her. As a result, Heather has become an international surfer traveling to locations in Australia, Mexico, Costa Rica, Italy, England and beyond.
Heather has taught others the joy of “soul surfing” for over eighteen years at surf camps and surfing schools on both coasts and in other countries. Her client list has grown to put her highly in demand and become one of the best in the field.

Henry Akins began training in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu in 1995 at the Rickson Gracie Acadamy on Pico blvd in West LA. Shortly after he started he became the secretary at the acadamy and was spending 70 hours a week there watching and participating in all of the classes. In 1997 the school moved to the Pacific Palisades where Henry trained and assisted main Instructor Luis Heredia and also participated and trained in all of the classes taught by Rickson. During these years Henry had the opportunity to train with Rickson and help him prepare for his fights in Japan. In 2000 the acadamy moved again to Wilshire blvd in West LA. By this time Henry had begun teaching many of the classes at the school.
In Feb of 2004, because of his persistence and dedication to the fundamentals and philosophies of Jiu-Jitsu, Rickson Gracie presented Henry with a blackbelt, being only the third American at the time to receive that honor. Henry then took over the school and became the main instructor there until 2008 when he was forced to stop due to a back injury. Now Henry is the head Jiu-Jitsu instructor at Dynamix Martial Arts and although Henry is no longer affiliated with Rickson Gracie or his association, he feels blessed to be able to share this art with others and to pass on the knowledge that was taught to him by the greatest Jiu-Jitsu practitioner ever.
