Our mission is to build our students into BLACK BELT CHAMPIONS. To make our students more successful in life through the practice of their martial arts and to always influence them in a positive manner
To accomplish this, we must instill the champions ATTITUDE. To set goals for self-improvement and to develop the non-quitting spirit that is necessary to overcome obstacles and be successful in life.
Next, we hope to educate and influence students' BEHAVIOR, so that they will develop the habits and lifestyle that will lead toward long term success. To learn and practice self-discipline in everything we do.
Finally, to re-enforce solid CHARACTER development and to live by a set of principles and standards that can be applied to daily living. To encourage the formation of high personal standards and demonstrate respect for all human beings.
In addition to providing an outlet for becoming more physically fit, learning a martial art, and achieving confidence in self-defense, we are committed to helping our students develop high moral standards by which to live their lives.
