Our involvement with this dojo has significantly changed our family. Our two daughters have gained a tremendous amount of self-confidence over the years as a result of their time at this dojo. Much more than the karate/self-defense skills learned has been the patient, yet firm, guidance that Sensei Craig has provided to them. This guidance comes not only in the dojo, but with respect to their personal lives and school work. I honestly cannot fully describe to you how much Craig has helped us. He is truly one of the finest people that I’ve ever known. Just drive by sometime after school or on a Saturday and talk to the parents that are there watching their children grow.

Our daughter is in her first year of college but Sensei Craig’s dedication to her continues. She emailed him from school asking for some fitness guidance, he was more than happy to assist; she is trying to start a karate club at school. During winter break she’ll be back at the Dojo, taking classes, helping teach the younger children. Her college essay was all about the mental as well as physical challenges of obtaining her black belt, it was VERY well received and contributed in large part, I believe, to the high rate of college acceptances she received. Thank you thank you Sensei Craig!!!

Brilliant instructing. Patient, thoughtful and, downright caring. Sensai Craig is by far the most patient instructor I have ever seen. When working with kids the most important detail is patients and, Sensai Craig has been blessed with an over abundance of patients. I would expect any instructor to be well accomplished technically, he takes things to a personal level with each and, every student as needed. If the student(child or adult) should focus on technique thats’s no problem, if it’s self confidence again, no problem, respect or, self control again… No problem. After searching for the right fit, we are extremely pleased with the level of attention our family receives. Highly recommended.
