I remember when I was child, feeling uncertainty about beginning martial arts. 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 beginning my martial arts journey would be one of the most profound experiences of my life!
When I opened my school in 2018, I made a commitment to serving and empowering the community of St. Joseph by teaching children and adults the confidence, leadership and fitness skills that can only be achieved through martial arts.
