Phil moved out to Vegas over a year ago and as his health came back he missed training and teaching so he decided to open AFS The Asylum Fight Team. Phil believes finances should not be the major roadblock to training and doing something you love so 3 times a week he runs free classes for the general public. Phil was a very active professional fighter between the ages of 16 and almost 26 fighting constantly until breaking his neck in a terrible car accident just before his 26th birthday. After being told he would never do anything physical again he rehabbed his body and started the Asylum.While training others to fight he decided to prove the doctors wrong and fight again. In 1998 at the age of 36 he began fighting again before deciding to retire and focus on training others and building up the Asylum Fight Team. After developing some serious health issues he closed the school and moved to Las Vegas. With his health back at the age of 52 he has started competing in No Gi Submission grappling tournaments again.
