"THE MIGHTY OAK"

I am sometimes known as “The Mighty Oak”

​

I have been studying GoJu Kenpo under Master Dalhaus for about seven years. I began taking classes because my son was taking classes and I simply thought that it looked like good exercise. It is good exercise, but it is also very enjoyable. I did not expect to enjoy karate nearly as much as I do.

​

Years ago, in College, I was a small part of a couple of successful football teams, but since then I had not found an athletic activity that captured my interest and imagination. GoJu Kenpo does.

​

I enjoy teaching the young students. In addition to watching them progress, I also reinforce basic techniques in myself as I teach. I enjoy the family atmosphere.

​

My philosophy is summed up in 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12, “and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to your own business and work with your hands, just as we commanded you, so that you will behave properly toward outsiders and not be in any need.”
