He later started coaching at a local fitness club he trained over 20 students. He served as an assistant coach for the Penn State University Boxing Team for the last two years and will continue in that capacity in the coming season.
Along with his impressive martial arts/boxing participant and coaching resume, Os has been involved with the a before and after school child development and family counseling program in area elementary schools.
