I tried several dojos but this is a perfect fit I have tried several dojos and different styles of martial arts but was never fully satisfied until I found Traditional Karate and Aikido. Shehan has a vast knowledge of martial arts and experience that stretch several years. I have finally found my forever dojo, the instruction, the professionalism, and the atmosphere are top notch. I would encourage anyone that has not found the "right" dojo to come and visit, who knows maybe you'll make this your permanent dojo?

Sensei Stan Smith, a living legend! Sensei Stan Smith, you are truly an inspiration to countless people. It was a joy watching you in action as you thought your students. I was simply amazed by your grace and skills Head bowed to you. 🙏

Testimony of a Longtime Aikido Student I am very happy with this dojo; I've been training there since 2005. Not only does this school teach a very accurate curriculum of martial arts, it also teaches values of respect, discipline, and confidence. Shihan Stan Smith is very passionate and enthusiastic towards the arts alongside teaching them. Over the years training with Shihan (and our late Soke), I've seen and felt the results in myself, not only in martial prowess but in my own character as well.

I’d give more than 5 stars if I could! I’ve been training here for almost six years now, and I can confidently say that this is the best martial arts studio I’ve ever been to. Shihan Stan Smith is an excellent teacher who has cultivated a dojo space where students learn life lessons like humility and discipline...not just empty hand and weapons katas. The other students have become like family to me, and I enjoy growing and pushing myself to improve! In addition, this is a fantastic dojo for Christian practitioners who want to learn from a godly source. I may have given it five stars, but I wish I could give more. Check it out - it’ll change your life!

Outstanding I've been with this dojo ever since I was around 11 years old. I am now 20. When I first joined, I was struggling with my self-worth and I was a victim of bullying for several years of my life. I not only wanted to learn how to defend myself, but to learn how to grow as a human being in mind, body, and soul. Soke, Shihan, and all my Senpais were able to show me the way and I could not thank them enough for how much they've done to change the negative aspects in my life. We're a family and you can become a part of it if you join the dojo :)
