About Founders: Travis & Desiree Castellon

Travis is 31 yrs old, born and raised in South Florida. He started Martial Arts at the age of 6, initially because he was having difficulty in school and with discipline. Since that day it became the best thing that ever happened to him. He became obsessed with the sport and he adapted to it naturally. He learned different forms of Martial Arts and decided to excel in Tae Kwon Do. At the young age of 13, he began assisting head instructors and Masters of large, well known Martial Arts Academy's, guiding and teaching children of all ages, specializing in instructing children with disabilities as well as disciplinary concerns. From there, he began competing in worldwide tournaments in Tae Kwon Do, Extreme Martial Arts, and weapons, becoming a 3 time National Champion in the sport. His earned his Black Belt at the age of 12 and achieved a second degree in Tae Kwon Do. From there, he became the head instructor in multiple large academies from Fort Lauderdale all the way up to Orlando Fl, teaching children, teens, and adults. 

In between Martial Arts instruction, in 2012 Travis began his Professional Boxing career, with fights hosted in Las Vegas, Puerto Rico, Philadelphia, and Dominican Republic. He holds the Latin Champion Title and his record currently stands at 16-3 with 12 KO's. He began his training at the World Famous 5th Street Gym in South Beach, Miami with his father and coach, Luis Perez. He has trained closely with well known fighters such as Miguel Cotto, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Guillermo Rigondeauz, Randel Bailey, Amir Imam, and many more. 

In 2018, his professional boxing career slowed in order to open his own boxing/martial arts academy and raise a family of his own, with his wife and two sons. Travis and his wife Desiree opened their academy now called Champions World Boxing & Fitness in order to share their dreams and love for the sport with the world. It started off with just a funny conversation, and rather quickly was made into a reality. We began in a small 1100 sq foot warehouse with no clients but certainly with a vision. We have evolved from a basic boxing training facility to a full blown adult, teen, and kid fitness academy, after school camp, and community fit and fun zone in a brand new 5000 Sq. ft. facility.
