Awesome staff, good prices. Master Dillow (7th degree black belt) is very passionate about the morals and integrity behind the black belt in addition to the physical skills. Also it’s more about growth and improvement than perfection so any of physical abilities can be involved and be successful. That said he does push people hard to do their best. Failure is not an option, on his wall it says “Impossible today is possible tomorrow”. He also pushes and trains on leadership. And has help many learn to help other to also achieve.

Miss Bolton (3rd degree) is extremely skilled and make learning hard things fun for kids. The junior instructors Miss Ogden and Miss Winn are both state and National champs compete on at worlds. All are heavily trained and respected.

Both Master Dillow, and Bolton have great senses of humor and enjoy laugh, but are also very serious when needed.

They also do 4-8 hour “camps” from time to time that include lunch and are lots of fun and improve skills, some include but not limited to: Jedi (light saber duelling), Ninja (flips, stealth), Sword (even teaches blowing out a candles with a blade), warrior (Nerf gun battles), etc.
