In honor of the passing of the great Tak Kobuta I had my students run Gosoko Yodan at breathing speed several times and a few times at combat speed and then once at tension speed. (that left them feeling like wet dish towels) RIP to one of the great Martial Arts Masters. It was truly and honor to have met him.

My children are learning katas, discipline, and courtesy and their teachers have mentioned their focus in school. Sensei teaches them so much and they have much more self confidence and control.

My daughter has been attending for a few years now. Sensei is a great teacher and not a "belt mill". The students have to actually work and practice to move onto the next level. My daughter is more confident and is learning to be more self assured and responsible.
