Martial Arts

Mark “ShaH” Evans is a lifelong martial artist, coach, and certified Rapid Assault Tactics (R.A.T.) instructor, dedicated to developing fighters who are as disciplined mentally as they are dangerous physically.

Mark began his martial arts journey in Boxing and MMA, training at Roufusport MMA Academy in 1999 and later trained at Chosen Few Gym before transitioning to Muay Thai under Michael D. Vaughan at The Blast Muay Thai Kickboxing Plus in 2013. His passion for the craft and his relentless work ethic led him to become Head Coach in 2017 and Owner in 2018.

Today, as the owner and head coach of Wolf Pack Combat Academy in Madison, Wisconsin, Mark continues to build a culture rooted in discipline, resilience, and purpose. He provides instruction in Boxing, Muay Thai, and MMA, guiding both beginners and elite fighters toward mastery through structured training and mental toughness.

Mark’s philosophy is simple but demanding: “Seek Death” — a reminder to push past comfort, confront fear, and pursue growth until weakness no longer survives. His approach goes beyond fighting; it’s about shaping character, sharpening focus, and building warriors who live with intention both inside and outside the gym.

In addition to coaching everyday students, Mark has trained and cornered amateur and professional fighters across multiple disciplines, emphasizing strategy, adaptability, and the mindset required to win — in competition and in life.
