Since the inception of OSS Clothing, Ryan Cunningham has always been an avid supporter. Ryan began training in martial arts in 2005 in Roseburg, OR, beginning with Judo. In 2009 Ryan started teaching, a path that would change his life forever. In teaching, Ryan found his calling. In 2013, he earned his USJF-accredited black belt in Judo from 5th-degree black belt, Sensei Roy Kawaji at Portland Judo.

In 2012, Ryan embarked on a new adventure, partnering with his mentor and friend, Ben Baxter, to create Performance Martial Arts Academy in Springfield, Oregon. In 2013 Ryan won his purple belt division at the US Open, capping another successful year as a competitor. In 2014, Performance Martial Arts Academy opened its second location in Roseburg, OR. 

In addition to being an avid competitor and teacher, Ryan prides himself on being a good father and an even better husband.
