Business Owner
Sensei Creech began his training back in the 1960s when there were few schools from which to choose. Tae Kwon Do was his chosen field of study at the time. Sensei Creech is a retired YMCA professional who established schools usually in the cities where he was assigned to work such as Asheville & Greensboro, North Carolina, Atlanta, GA; Philadelphia, PA, and now Seattle, WA.
Sensei Creech currently runs a karate program for a non-profit agency that teaches 200+ elementary school children weekly in the art of Hayashi-Ha Shitoryu-Kai in Bellevue, Renton, and Issaquah, Washington. He currently serves as President of the Advisory Council for the Minakami Karate Dojo in Seatle, Washington. Sensei Creech is extremely grateful to be associated with Minakami Karate Dojo both as a student and as a trusted advisory member
