About Sifu Julio Anguita

Sifu Julio Anguita began his martial arts journey at the age of 13, starting with Okinawan Karate before transitioning to Taekwondo a year later. His path took a pivotal turn in 2000 when he met Master Paul Tillman, a dedicated practitioner of Pami-Kol, a Filipino Martial Arts system founded by Kaplag Galo Enriquez from Cebu, Philippines. This teacher-student bond evolved into a lifelong mentorship, and to this day, Sifu Julio honors Master Paul as a father figure and continues to train under his guidance.

Through this profound relationship, Sifu Julio expanded his martial repertoire, exploring new disciplines to refine his combat philosophy. His journey led him to Wing Chun, where he received private instruction from Sifu Ron Lepree, who also introduced him to the fundamentals of Zen Buddhism. Two years later, he found his way to Jeet Kune Do (JKD) under Sifu Carlos Osorio, earning his full instructorship in the art that emphasizes adaptability, directness, and efficiency.
