Black belt. Artist. Woman. Words not often seen in the same sentence, let alone in the same woman. Naomi break boards with her body, trains with a sharp sword and advocates for youth education and community development through the martial arts. As an active educator, Naomi has seen first hand the inequalities in her community, the education systems that impact her students, their families and community on a daily basis. Naomi is on a mission; a mission to utilize her love of the martial arts to connect to her community.
