Golden State Athletic Club is owned and operated by David Schimmel and Travis Kay Rugen. Both David and Travis have been training martial arts since childhood and have over 50+ years of experience combined. After navigating the unexpected complications of Covid era martial arts training on their own, David and Travis decided to combine forces and open Golden State Athletic Club in San Rafael, CA in July of 2022.
