“I have studied Martial Arts since I was five. I am now a student assistant and enjoy helping new students learn the basics of Martial Arts. I know it has helped me with my self-confidence and respect for others, and I hope to help pass that on to our new students. “I enjoy competing in the Sunflower Games and other tournaments. I have taken four 1st places, one 2nd, and one 3rd place. My goal is to earn my Black Belt this year...I am just one test away.”

- Riley Florence

“He enjoys the interaction with the other class members. His focus has greatly improved. He is a straight A student and really enjoys school. Philyi has participated in 4 tournaments and took first place in every category he entered in the Sunflower Games. Master Moore has a way of working with kids of all ages. I would highly recommend attending his classes.”

- Rochelle Canady

“Mr. Moore teaches us how to protect ourselves if we’re ever in a situation we can’t get out of. I think (the discipline) has helped in other ways, too...I get better grades in school, and have a better relationship at home. I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys exercise.”

- Danielle Locey

- Sanela Hasanovic-Little

He looks forward to going to class every week. I would recommend Master Moore to any parent.”

- Stuart McClelland Sr.

- Kathy Esquibel

“We love Mr. Moore. It’s very important when teaching martial arts that the teacher shows control with emotions and is calm. Mr. Moore teaches self-control, respect for others and how and when to use martial arts. Joe shows respect for his teachers and he’s able to focus well in class. Most of Mr. Moore’s students are straight A kids, because they’ve learned, through karate, how to focus.”

He’s great with kids and he stresses safety, respecting teachers and adults, and ‘when to listen and when to speak.’ Hezekiah has improved in school because the teacher has to approve of his work before he can earn his belt. He’s also in the Black Belt Club for students who have the potential to earn a Black Belt.”

“My 5 year old daughter, KayLynn, has been attending Karate classes for about 2 months. She loves it and looks forward to classes every week. It’s challenging because she is in a class with older kids. It’s great to see the team work as the older kids assist her with her workouts and routines. It’s more than just exercise. There is a different theme each month. This month it’s ‘Focus.’ The kids know that Mr. Moore practices what he preaches and they respect him for that. Because of this, they learn to respect one another. I would recommend it for anyone.”

As a family, we’ve all gotten a lot out of our relationship with Mr. Moore. He’s taught us to be more of a unit.”
