John has had a long association with many aspects of Martial Arts and other sporting arena’s. John's interest in self defence martial arts developed when he joined the Queensland Police Service in 1983. The first event John entered into was a Judo competition held on the Sunshine Coast in 1986 where he won his match on points. John's interest in developing his strength and determination also led him towards the sport of Power-Lifting in which he also pursued throughout the years – culminating in 3rd place in the Queensland Drug Free State Titles.

John continued to dedicate himself towards his Martial Arts training and was able to achieve a Black Belt level in Zen Do Kai Karate, in 1989. Throughout the next few years John entered into various karate events within Brisbane until work commitments forced him to relocate to Kingaroy in 2003 and have a break from competition sports. At this stage John began training at the Kingaroy Boxing Club so as to maintain his fitness and to develop his boxing skills. When John moved to Hervey Bay in 2005 he continued his boxing training at the Hervey Bay PCYC. In 2006 the PCYC hosted a Fight Night which was an exciting opportunity for John to step back into the arena which resulted in him winning the 90 kg bout on points.

Later in 2006 John experienced an unexpected turn of events which left him emotionally drained and unsure of his future direction. John knew he needed to find a new physical outlet, if only to help recover from emotional turmoil. It was around this time that John discovered the Integrated Martial Arts Academy and began training with Michael Green. John feels that this was an opportunity of personal development that came into his life at the perfect time. John's training at the Integrated Academy provided him with motivation, strength, courage and commitment to face the future and continue on life’s journey. John found that his association and training with the Integrated Academy assisted him to regain his self-esteem, confidence and ability to move forward in life. John continued to train with Michael and then in 2008 he also began training with Tony Green. John's skills and abilities were now taken to the next level and in August 2008 he competed at the Gladstone Submission Wrestling Titles where he won the 90kg Masters division.

In October 2010 at the ripe old age of 49, John competed at the Mixed Martial Arts/Muay Thai Mayhem event in Hervey Bay against an opponent who was 14 years his junior and 12kg heavier. John's hard work paid off on the night resulting in him winning the bout by TKO in the 2nd round. In November of 2010 John was selected to be 1 of 3 students tested for their MMA Level 1 Emergence grading (Gryphon) in which he successfully passed all requirements. In 2011 John expanded his experiences by becoming a referee in which he did admirably in the 2nd MMA/Muay Thai event in Hervey Bay. John has now turned 50 and continues to train with both Tony and Michael. John is the longest serving member of the Integrated Martial Arts Academy and is also the most senior member for sure. John may be 50 years of age but he is still enthusiastic and passionate about his self-development which is continually demonstrated through his self-discipline and dedication towards each of his weekly training sessions. John Winter is a true credit to the Integrated Academy and his life serves as an inspiration for us all.

Panuwat "Chep" Krummel

Integrated Academy Team Coach

Chep has studied Martial Arts since 1995 when he initially began training in Tsuji Karate. Chep's Katate training assisted him to create a strong foundation of inner strength, determination and self-discipline. It was five years later when Chep's training experience also branched out into other styles such as Zen Do Kai, Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. This diversity of training was an integral stage of Chep's journey as it assisted him to progress forward and develop a vast awareness of skills in a variety of Martial Arts disciplines.

It was in 2005 that Chep's Martial Arts and life path also converged with the Integrated Martial Arts Academy. Since this time Chep has trained on and off with both Mick and Tony Green as well as simultaneously continuing his coss-training pusuits with Muay Thai (Craig Glover), Boxing (Simon Lemanu) and Jiu Jitsu (Troy Summerfield).

One of Chep's strongest passions has been in helping kids. In 2008 Chep worked as a Youth Pastor for M-City Church and also as a School Chaplain for Scripture Union Qld. Chep has most recently commenced work at the Glendyne Education and Training Center having been employed since the beginning of 2010 as the Youth Support Coordinator. Chep has a natural gift for mentoring, encourageing and helping kids find their potential.

Towards the end of 2010 Chep was 1 of 3 Integrated Academy students selected for the inaugural MMA Emergence Level 1 Grading in which he strongly completed all requirements. In 2010 Chep also experienced his first MMA cage event in which he fought a close battle against an advanced level opponent in the Hexagon MMA event held at the Maryborough showgrounds. And now most recently in March 2011 Chep has successfully completed his Martial Arts Instructor Accreditation course through the Martial Arts Industry Association. Since this time Chep has accepted the opportunity to conduct his own classes based at the Hervey Bay PCYC in which he is not only a valuable team member of the Integrated Academy but also an asset in the lives of all students that his life touches.
