Guro Bob Heinemann
Owner & Head Instructor

I began my training with Sifu Andy Wilson at MKG Seattle in 2000. After a year I was hooked. The blend of Kali, Jun Fan/JKD, Muay Thai, CSW & BJJ was so intriguing and the workout was tremendous! It was exactly what i needed at that point in my life.

In 2001 I went to LA to extend my career as a professional musician when my path in life changed. While training at the Inosanto Academy I became thoroughly inspired! Not only by the high level of martial arts skill and knowledge but by the amount of respect and admiration the students and instructors felt for Guro Inosanto. I’ve been a dedicated student of the martial arts ever since. I still manage to keep a foot in the music scene and play professionally from time to time. To me the martial arts and music share so many qualities that compliment and enhance one another.

I was fortunate to have been offered an assistant position at MKG in early 2002 and I’m proud to have been a part of that school’s development over the years. Being a martial arts instructor has been the most rewarding and humbling experience of my life. It’s the greatest feeling when someone tells you how much they enjoyed your class or what your instruction meant to them or how much their training has helped them in some way.

My hope is to make Seattle Integrated Martial Arts a place for people to make great transformations in their life, and at the very least have a valuable and positive experience.
