Meet Kru Brendan Kalijundic, a passionate and dedicated instructor at Kalsamrit Martial Arts, where he teaches both the kids' programs and Muay Thai classes. Brendan has an impressive background in martial arts and is a champion in multiple disciplines, including the 145lbs and 155lbs WAMTAC championships, the 135lbs SSFL Spyder Submission Fight League title, and the 145lbs Victory Muay Thai championship. He also holds the record for the fastest knockout in amateur MMA history—an incredible 6-second, one-punch KO over Joey Barnes at Fight Quest 21 in Montreal, Quebec.

Brendan's martial arts journey began at a young age as a Judo fighter, and he's been a certified coach and personal trainer since 2006. After training at the renowned Kaewsamrit Gym in Bangkok, Thailand, Brendan returned home in 2013 as a professional Muay Thai fighter, securing all of his wins in Thailand by TKO. Today, he’s on an impressive 13-fight win streak in both MMA and Muay Thai.

Kru Brendan’s goal is to share his love for martial arts with students of all ages, helping them grow, get fit, and achieve their personal goals in a supportive and fun environment.
