“I saw someone in a gi, went to the Dojo and never stopped training after that. Martial arts have been a life changing experience for me. I have developed lifelong friends. As an instructor, I have a quality product. I make sure that when you issue a Black Belt to someone, it is to someone that you would want to have on your side in a fight. That it is issued to someone to whom you could trust the welfare of your family. I’ve taught thousands of students and learned from them as well. It is the quality of the person that lingers in your mind and not the rank. ~ George Minshew
