Ethan Williams
With 30 years of Martial Arts experience, Ethan has practiced many styles, which include Tai Chi, Shaolin Kung Fu, Wing Chun, and Hung Gar.
For nine years, Ethan oversaw and later became the owner of Discount Health Foods in North Miami Beach, Florida, a beloved local establishment that has served the community for over 40 years. There, he not only offered a wide range of herbs, supplements, and vegetarian groceries but also hosted classes and one-on-one consultations to promote health and wellness.
His teaching experience spans a diverse age range, from children as young as 4 to seniors over 80. Through martial arts, he has mentored at-risk youth (ages 9-16) to foster inner awareness, mental clarity, and discipline, while also working with older clients to enhance balance, coordination, and body awareness.
Ethan holds a certificate in Mindful Mentorship from Cloud Sangha, studying under renowned teachers Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield. His spiritual journey is enriched by influences from Zen, Taoism, Non-Dual philosophy, Christian Mysticism, and Stoic Philosophy. Ethan’s goal is to foster awareness of self and others, enhancing compassion and loving kindness in the world. He envisions offering these modalities in settings such as hospitals, hospice care, senior centers, prisons, and public schools.
