Our Story
What does the name Mambi' mean?
Pronounced "Mahm-BEE", the Mambi' were the valiant folks from the Cuban countryside, who took up simple arms (such as their machetes) and defeated well equipped Spanish armies, to help win Cuba's independence from Spain in the late 1800's.
Now a proud citizen of the United States of America, Sensei Diaz shares that Mambi' heritage with us here, as he contributes to the health, training and development of American youth and adults through Judo and Personal Fitness endeavors.
