Meet The Staff - Jeff Gerling

I have been practicing traditional karate for over 20 years. I have a black belt in Shudo-kan karate and hold rank in 3 other styles. I have been teaching for the past 7 years and have found through studying the martial arts that character, honesty, and integrity are of the utmost importance. As you progress through the ranks of Shudo-kan karate you will become self-confident and gain more self-esteem.

"We believe that each student has their own strengths and weaknesses, as well as their own unique way of learning. Egos are distracting and are not welcome. We will train you to become effective and to develop the 'I CAN' attitude. Our goal is to provide both traditional and practical karate and self defense."
