The martial arts bring a vast array of benefits to almost anyone who practices them.  
There are many physical, social and learning deficiencies that can be helped or overcome by
training in the martial arts.  
Young children can benefit from increased motor skills, balance and focus.  
Older children gain increased confidence and self-control.  
While those of us, like myself, who have seen a few birthdays come and go can benefit from the
increased activity, and greater flexibility ( use it or lose it).
I challenge you to make a positive lifestyle choice and join us for some great fellowship and training.
People ask me what makes this a Christian karate school.  I usually reply," We get together punch
and kick each other, give everyone a hug and go home."  It is really much more than that.  I was
interested in martial arts for many years before I started training but I didn't want to be taught with
the influence of the eastern religions.  When I discovered I was on staff at a church with a Christian
black belt I began training with him.  You do not have to be a Christian to join our group but you do
need to respect our beliefs and display Christlike character.  I hope to do more in the future to make
our training distinctly Christian and students who do not display sound moral character will not
advance in rank.  

Our school teaches American Open-Style Karate as our primary style but we are eclectic in our
study and training as we are convinced of the advantage of mixed martial arts training.  As a result
we train in other styles and seek to develop techniques that would be beneficial to our students.
Our Katas are primarily Chito-Ryu. We are researching additional katas and weapons to include in
our training. In addition we teach self-defense techniques along with our regular curriculum. We
offer age specific classes as well as family classes.  We train students starting at four years old.

For those of you who think you are too busy to study martial arts our Brooksville school offers one
or two day per week classes and our Dade City school is two days per week.   

We are a Florida based school currently operating in Hernando and Pasco Counties.  We have
locations in Brooksville and Zephyrhills and are looking to expand to other areas.  We are also
looking for other Christian Black Belts to join us in our mission.

For those with rank in another style of Martial Arts we recognize your rank and allow you to train at
an accelerated rate until you reach the same rank in our style.
