DJ Perry
DJ attended Northwestern Elementary where, even at a
young age, his favorite subject was English.
Next DJ went on to Otto Middle School where his favorite
subject was still English. While in middle school, he
expanded his interests to include the sports, Soccer,
Volleyball and Karate.
DJ went on to spend his teen years in Sexton High
School. He soon found a new scholastic interest in
Anthropology/Archaeology but he continued to excell in
English. DJ also participated in Soccer as well as Karate.
His mentor in high school later became his business
partner, Jeff Kennedy. DJ went on to graduate in June of
1988.
Once out of high school, DJ decided to attend Lansing
Community College and later joined the campus of
Michigan State University. There he studied English - go
figure - Theater and Communications. Although he
continued to participate in sports, his game changed to
Hopkido and Judo.
After graduation from MSU in 1993, DJ went on to play
and coach soccer and work as a instructor in martial arts.
Later, he went on to become a founding member and
