Brian | “Coach Lock”
Instructor
Coach Lock was born in Columbus, Ohio and started playing football, joined a track team and boxing at 10 years old. He moved to Sacramento, California in the summer of 1985 just before his 15th birthday, where he played football and ran track in high school.
After graduating high school and a couple attempts at a junior college education, he decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue a music career, which ultimately brought him back to Northern California. Since then he’s become a father that is intensely involved in his sons’ sports lives. That led him to start coaching football and learning what it means to lead a group of young people in a physically competitive sport. He has 12 years of football coaching experience, and in the off-season uses boxing as a tool to help develop hand speed, strength and footwork.
He is USA Football and USA Boxing certified and regularly attends video trainings in his free time to stay on top of the latest safety, training protocols and techniques. He is motivated by what boxing and football did for his confidence, character, and the voice it gave him. Those are things that he believes are important for young people to develop in their lives. Seeing an athlete grow as they continue along in any sporting program is incredible.
