Roland Lavigne: Roland began training in martial arts in 1979, with various forms of wrestling, particularly Greco Roman. As a former member of ATWA (Adirondack Three Style Wrestling Association), he considers himself blessed to have had the opportunity to study and train with the likes of Joe Demeo, Joe Bena, and Jeff Blatnick. The summer before his junior year of high school, Roland was invited to live and train with Olympian Jim Peckham at his home outside Boston. It was through Mr. Peckham that Roland first came to glimpse the meaning of “Way”.
