The LV Fitness Academy first noticed Fitzsimmons when they were recruiting self-defense experts for an upcoming tour for the Department of Defense’s (DOD) Armed Forces Entertainment (AFE). Vu personally hand picked her team to teach reality based self-defense techniques to the women serving overseas in the military. The Linda Vu Women’s Self Defense Tour was a great compliment to the SAPRO training that the military is already providing to offset the increased sexual harassment issues the women the military currently face.
“Shawn was a great addition to our tour, said Linda Vu. “His background in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu really helped to round out the techniques we use to teach women reality-based ground defensive techniques. It was both educational and empowering to see so many women turn up for the seminars.” The tour itself went to military bases in England, Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands.
In fact, the tour was so popular Linda was asked to put together a DVD for home training. Fitzsimmons is also featured in the newly released Linda Vu Women’s Self Defense DVD available at www.LVFitnessAcademy.com as well as on Amazon.
When Shawn isn’t training, he is a personal trainer based in Las Vegas, NV working with other fighters, actors, models and even famous comedians getting them in the best shape of their life. In a recent interview, Fitzsimmons said, “I’m thrilled to have so many great sponsors backing me”.
The World Fighting Federation 15 title fight between Shawn “Fitzy” Fitzsimmons and Raymond Pina will take place August 23rd at Casino Del Sol Resort/Conference Center in Tucson, AZ.
