FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Depending on the level of instruction requested, the location the client is willing to travel to, and the requirements for instruction, personal tuition may include an additional mat fee or equipment fee. I will do my best to ensure the client is aware of the additional cost before hand.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I train routinely in Motobu ha Shito Ryu Karate, Motobu Ryu Kempo and Udundi, and Mugai Ryu Iaido under Robert Rivers, 7th Dan Renshi, US Honbucho for the International Seishinkai Karate Union, East Coast representative for the Suimokai, and personal student to the headmaster of the Meishi ha branch of Mugai Ryu. I also train in Enshin Karate at KAIZEN MMA in Fairfax and Muay Thai to further develop my understanding and skill set for competition, both full contact and semi.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I fell into my job. My first teacher asked me to run the Dojo and from thereon, I've been involved in Martial Arts training and instruction.
