Biography
Hello, I’m Patrick Klosowski, a martial artist and visual effects enthusiast, blending the worlds of discipline and creativity.
Martial Arts Journey
My journey in martial arts began not long after my dear friend Valirie Peligrino. We joined the martial arts community together, forging a friendship that has withstood the test of time. I took my first steps into the world of martial arts at the age of 8, and Valirie and I trained side by side, growing not only as martial artists but also as lifelong friends.
Achievements on the Mat
At the age of 11, I proudly achieved my black belt, marking a significant milestone in my martial arts journey. The discipline, focus, and camaraderie of the martial arts community have played a pivotal role in shaping who I am today.
Contributions to EMA
Beyond my personal achievements, I’ve been actively involved in shaping the martial arts curriculum at EMA. I played a key role in creating the grappling curriculum, contributing to the development of skills that go beyond the traditional martial arts spectrum.
Life Outside the Mat
Outside the realm of martial arts, I channel my creativity into the world of visual effects for movies and TV shows. As a visual FX enthusiast, I enjoy bringing imagination to life on the screen, exploring the boundless possibilities of technology and storytelling.
Friendship and Collaboration
My journey with Valirie extends beyond the mat, and our shared experiences have created a bond that goes beyond the martial arts studio. The collaborative spirit we developed during our training has translated into a dynamic friendship that continues to enrich our lives.
Future Aspirations
As I continue to train and create in both martial arts and visual effects, my aspirations include pushing the boundaries of creativity in both fields. I look forward to contributing further to EMA’s curriculum and exploring new opportunities in the visual effects industry.
Thank you for being a part of my journey, whether on the mat or through the magic of visual effects. Let’s continue to grow, create, and inspire.
Best, Patrick Klosowski
