Guy was born in Queens New York in 1964. Then moved to Tiberon, California in 1966. Guy's family then moved to the Big Island of Hawaii, where Guy was first introduced to the Martial Arts at eight years old. Guy and his family had moved back to Marin County in 1976. Guy's best friends older brother, a Staff Sergeant in the United States Army, brought Guy, at age eleven, to his first instructor, a former Green Beret. Since then Guy has studied Tang-So-Do, Karate, Boxing, American Kick Boxing, Traditional Muay-Thai, Chinese Kenpo, Tae-Kwon-Do, Kosho-Shorie-Ryu Kempo, Shaolin Kempo, Filipeno Stick Fighting and Fighting Arts, and Shorin-Ryu. Guy holds several Black Belts in seven different styles. His highest rank , a fourth dan (degree), second highest is a third degree. Guy received his third degree in 1995. Holding a third degree for 17 years. Guy's coach is wanting to test Guy for his fifth dan (degree) in Shorin-Ryu, in Febuary 2013. Guy also holds additional Black Belts. Guy has studied under four Masters and two Grand Masters, and has been with his Chinese Kenpo Master since 1986. Guy still speaks frequently with all of his instructors. Guy is also a Martial Combat Instructor qualified by all the mixed Martial Arts, and being able to apply it in the field. Guy is considering his eighth Black Belt in the very near future in Aikido or maybe Kajukenbo, but is now working on rebuilding his Kosho foundation and Shorin-Ryu foundation, with his grand master and looking forward to the new changes within the organization. Guy's goals in life are to help all Martial Art schools in peserving the Martial Arts and competition in America. Guy's beliefs are that Black Belts are all brothers and sisters of the Martial Arts in or out of the ring. We must intertwine our arts together to strengthen as a rope for the future knowledge of all of our students. For the history of who we are where we've come from, and where we are going. It's a constant journey, we are all students on the quest of knowledge to better our selves, as brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, husbands, wives, colleagues, as human beings. Our lives unravel when we are not whole and pure in the Martial Arts.
Guy had been excepted on two US Teams. The USNKA Team and Team USA. Guy proudly represented Team USA in Australia and was Team Captain under Coach Lim Sison. Lim's team from California compared to all other state teams on Team USA, Coach Sison brought back more gold medals than any other team. Guy took a Gold Medal in breaking and a fourth in fighting. Over 100 US fighters, Guy is the only one that placed in fighting. Guy was torn by having to eliminate one of his teammates to fight for the gold. Guy was disqualified for the gold by excessive contact on Australia (Australian fighter was a Australian special forces soldier) by a blitz, with an incredibly fast front hand jab. Guy ran him over like a train. Guy then fought for the bronze of fourth. Guy and the Australian fighter and some of Guy's teammates all went out together to Conrad Jupiters in Sydney. Despite the battle in the ring, they all hung out like brothers. Guy was invited to remain on the team and fight in Hungry Budipest. Guy went through his divorce in 1996 and declined. Guy's comment, " I wish I could've put the divorce behind me and not let it take my legs out and stay strong to do my job again. I failed. I wish I went."

Guy began brick breaking in 1987 taught by his Chinese Kenpo Instructor, fifth degree Black Belt, Sensei Cox. Guy has been with since 1986. Guy has always been intrigued by power striking since his studies in Muay-Thai. Sensei Cox has always been impressed by Guy's hard hitting. Sensei Cox had been teaching Guy the art of true Kenpo. Short power striking from internal strength. Not body weight. Guy really enjoyed Breaking Bricks, he feels that he's able to callibrate his strength in striking. Guy breaks with a punch, palm, hammer fist, his devestating elbow, a chop, and with a ridge hand. Guy breaks with or without spacers. He has even broken a river rock. Guy has broken a cinder block with an elbow. From 1990-2013, Guy has competed 102 times and one loss in 1993. By his own human error. Guy has done numerous demonstrations in other countries and all over the US, and competed professonally. Holding two World Titles in Breaking, and a World Record of 109 bricks in 9.01 seconds. Guy has taught a handful of other good breakers. He has coached two NBL Junior World Brick Breaking Champions. Blue Belts that competed in the Black Belt division, and won in the junior division. Guy had also coached a Kajukenbo practicioner, from the Fairfield California area. Dave competed in an adult under belt division. Dave was almost mirror image Guy, when Guy retired. Dave, Dan, and Silas demolished their divisions. Guy had Dan and Silas breaking more bricks as Juniors than an adult can break. Yancy also was a phenomenal breaker and never competed in breaking, but broke on the demo team. These young men broke with no spacers. Someone commented to Guy once, " Bricks don't punch back," Guy replied, " Neither do men who get knocked out and drink their dinner from a straw for three months." They both laughed. A real brick breaker, a true brick breaker, all we need in an defense situation is one hit, one strike. That's the true art of real brick breaking. Guy thanks his Sensei Cox for teaching him the art of breaking and the tree of teaching, Sensei Cox taught Guy and Guy taught so many more by his seminars and competition. By Sensei Cox's teaching to Guy and Guy being a good student on Sensei Cox's tree of accomlishments. There is four world brick breaking titles, one world record. Credit does not go to me it goes to my Sensei and my mom and dad. I was just the pawn. Thank you Sensei, thank you Mom and Dad.
