Identical twins Nick and Matt Coffman have owned their own business since the age of 15.  Operating in the City of Winder, Twin Tigers Karate Academy has made a name in the Barrow County, GA, area that holds respect and honor.  
 
Born in Winston-Salem, NC, and raised in South Florida, Matt and his wife Amy now make their home in Barrow County.  His career  began in South Florida when he began working at age 6 as a model  and actor.  Involved in making movies, television ads, print work up to age 11, this inspired Matt to begin training in the martial arts for self defense.  

At age 14 Matt received their 1st Dan Black Belt in Tang Soo Do and his family then moved to Georgia.  In May 1996, at age 15, the twins  began Twin Tigers classes in a local church and immediately had over 40 students.  While teaching karate, Matt has also worked other jobs such as maintenance in churches, set ups, electrical work, manufacturing, etc.
