I remember when I was a child, feeling uncertainty about sports. I wondered if I had what it took to succeed and I wasn’t the most athletic or confident child - quite the opposite. Little did I know that my first karate class would be the beginning of amartial arts journey that would be one of the most profound experiences of my life!
When I opened my school in 2014, I made a commitment to serving and empowering the community by teaching children and adults the confidence, leadership, and fitness skills that can only be achieved through martial arts.
