I have been very busy with training and teaching. Just received my second degree on my Black Belt after weeks of testing. Our school is also undergoing some major upgrades that will greatly increase our activity and student base. It is wonderful to be able to experience the rewards of the last year’s hard work. There is no end to all the necessary details of development and improving and it makes life worthwhile. More to come soon…thank you for your patience.

I’m starting this blog because there are so many people in the SF Bay Area who want to get into martial arts but don’t know where to start. It’s here to support my consulting business which I run in the SF Bay Area. My in-person services are very in depth but this blog is here to answer basic questions and help those who need direction. Training in martial arts has been very rewarding for me for various reasons. It is the combination of physical, mental and spiritual aspects that has kept me coming back. It’s not about beating the pulp out of someone, (well sometimes it is) but more about the confidence that training brings. Whether someone chooses to use it as a recreational outlet or for combat/self defense purposes, the results can be very inspirational. There is a not many other activities where your payoff is as directly proportional to you involvement. Basically, you get out what you put in. Choosing a style and a school is very important. Karate and such require a significant time investment. Nothing is worse than training for months or years only to figure out that a different style/school/instructor would have been better suited to your or your child’s needs. I look forward to helping others find their path to a new beginning in martial arts.
