Growing up a young Vito Brancaccio knew what he was going to do with his life. While watching Chuck Norris in "The Octagon" on TV, he turned to his family and told them that one day he would open a martial arts school.
In May of 1989 he fulfilled that dream when he opened the All Canadian Karate & Kickboxing Academy (later remanded All Canadian Martial Arts). Already a graduate of the George Brown College Fitness Instruction Program, a former strength and conditioning instructor at the Toronto Maple Leafs training camp,a Gold Medalist in Karate for Canada and Silver Medalist in Boxing at the New England Golden Gloves tournament, Shihan Brancaccio quickly established himself as one of the GTAs premier teachers of children, adults and elite athletes. Over the years thousands of students have called ACMA their second home and had their lives improved by Shihan Brancaccio and his highly trained staff. While much has changed over 20 years with the addition of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, yoga and several other disciplines as workshops, the school's commitment to excellence and its friendly welcoming atmosphere never have. |
