Paul Sanders started his training in the arts at the Inayan School of Eskrima in Knoxville, TN in 1995 after moving from California to Tennessee. Paul excelled in his training and soon became a cornerstone and leader at the ISE and an inspiration for everyone at the school. 

Mr. Sanders was very involved in bringing up Students in the correct manner within the ISE. Some of these Students are the leaders and pillars of the School now. Paul had an energy that was certainly felt within the School and he is greatly missed today. There are no words for those that knew Paul to describe the impact he had on their lives or the void it created upon his departure.
