“Fortune favors the brave, and the only way to be remembered is to leave behind a positive legacy of how you made others feel while making them better.” —Salu G.

Salu is a first-generation American, the proud son of a West African mother who worked tirelessly to give her four kids the American dream through hard work, consistency, and treating others with the utmost respect. 
 
Salu has been a multidisciplinary martial artist since childhood, with wrestling, jujitsu, Muay Thai, and boxing all under his belt. He travelled around the world showcasing his talents with some of the greatest fighters in the world. 
 
The transition into a career as a professional mixed martial arts fighter, certified personal trainer, and coach was a smooth one because of the environment in which he grew up. He has had the privilege of training and competing alongside some of the legends of combat sports: Anthony “Rumble” Johnson, Ronda Rousey, Vitor Belfort, Rashad Evans, and others. 
 
While his athletic accomplishments are impressive, so too is Salu’s magic ability to make every person he meets feel confident they can build up their skills and themselves to a high level. Not only is he a Nike LA Master Trainer, he offers private training at an exclusive top-notch private facility, on-demand digital boxing or strength and conditioning lessons at JLT PERFORMANCE.
 
Salu resides in Los Angeles, CA.
