🥋 What does it mean to train with integrity and how can martial arts shape the way we show up in the rest of our lives?
In this episode of Rolling Through Negotiations, Matthew sits down with Craig Donaldson, founder and head instructor of Integrity Martial Arts Academy. With a deep lineage under legends like John Will and Raymond Floro, Craig shares how decades of experience across BJJ, Kali, Judo, Muay Thai and close quarters combat have shaped his skills and values.
Key Takeaways:
Integrity is lived: The name of Craig’s academy it’s a reminder that how you train, lead, and show up every day matters more than any rank or title.
Calm is a strategy: In martial arts and life, staying composed under pressure allows for better decision-making.Â
Leadership is shared: True leaders train alongside their team, not above them. Craig’s path reflects a commitment to walk with others, not ahead of them.
From building community on and off the mats to what it really takes to lead a martial arts academy with heart, this is a grounded and generous conversation with someone who lives what he teaches.
