Marta A. Lomeli

Marta A. Lomeli has over 25 years of teaching experience, over 10 years in the martial arts, and years of community involvement: youth mentoring programs, police community relations support, and precinct walking.

Beginning with her college years, she was well-known for her original cartoons, many of which were published in college newspapers. She is a published poet, as well as author of many self defense articles for women and children.

In her forties, she achieved the rank of second degree black belt in Chinese Shao-Lin Kempo, an ancient form of martial arts. She managed to reach this goal even though she was a divorced mom for a few years.

Marta has discovered other wild ways to enjoy life, such as skydiving, public speaking, and painting.
