“I love being a youth instructor – kids are so much fun, and I love watching them discover new things and seeing their expressions. It’s neat being able to learn about each of their unique personalities as they grow and develop, and then teaching them accordingly. I love encouraging them and helping them discovery the world around them through the martial arts, including our character development themes. “I have a passion to instruct the youth in our community as well as the teens and adults. I like teaching them because they learn in entirely different ways than my youngest ones, and I can be creative how I bring the material about for a more mature group. I train them to study the martial arts, pace themselves, and go for the details with deeper learning. “We are a Christian-based martial arts school and family focused. I like keeping it structured to maintain the respect and discipline, yet adding loads of excitement to make it fun. “Side note – I’ve been a Century customer for over 30 years!”
