Welcome to the home of Gig Harbor Kickboxing in Gig Harbor, Washington.  David A. Bird is the head instructor for Birds' Martial Arts.  His broad training in multiple disciplines has given Master Bird a unique training and fighting ability. Mr. Bird has incorporated Boxing, Muay Thai Kickboxing, Submission Wrestling Techniques, and Grappling Skills into his unique style.   He is considered by many as the premier teacher of (MMA) Mixed Martial Arts in the region.
 
Mr Bird is also a master of Combat Arnis.  Arnis is the Philippine Martial Art of stick fighting.  Arnis is also known as Eskrima, and is one of the most effective and useful of all martial arts.  It incorporates stick, knife, empty hand, and combinations of armed and unarmed techniques.  It is fantastic training for self defense. Many of the techniques have been incorporated by the police and military.

Master Bird has dedicated himself to Martial Arts training for over 30 years.  He has been featured in over 15 major magazine articles.  In addition to his training with Guro Cui Brocka, he has trained with the Presas brothers, Richard Bustillo (a student of Bruce Lee), and the Filipino National Arnis Team.
