"I never doubted the benefits of Martial Arts. I started 1984 ,started in the Martial Arts Business 1991, and owned my own school since 1998. I have seen the various benefits of the training such as, discipline, focus, self-esteem, but I have particularly marveled in the values and have placed them up there with religion.

Honor, Integrity, Perseverance, and Respect are staples of character but unfortunately we see a decline in society. I have also seen repeated situations where Martial Arts training has changed and in some ways, saved lives. With the multitudes of developmental and behavioral disorders theses days we at Kim's Karate have seen hero stories, children who seemed "beyond hope" have improved immensely.

In March 2007 my own son has started karate, we have always known of A.D.H.D. and since he was four years old my wife and I have been dealing with it. Very recently our son was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, this was devastating to us but we knew of the symptoms and where prepared for the news. Remember, I have watched the improvements that Martial Arts have made on other peoples children for years but now I can attest to my own. It is with great pride to tell anyone who will listen that my son is now on honor roll and has more moments of focus than a lot of children that don't even have a disorder. This is a father's testimony."

"Greetings:

My name is Eric Lambert and I just want to take a moment to share my feelings about Ed Ianucci and Kim’s Karate.

It has been about three years since I walked into the Karate school and registered my Godson for the training. I had watched my son struggle with confidence in many areas of his life. I was concerned that the environment would just devour him and prevent him from being the man he was destined to be. I thought long and hard about a solution that would bring a sense of discipline and confidence to Darius.

Then one day I walked in to Kim’s Karate and signed Darius up for Karate classes. The staff was very supportive and I was made to feel that this was the right move. When classes began, I saw just how committed the entire staff was to each child. I saw the care and the structure that Kim’s had in their school and I was convinced that I had made the right decision.

Mr. Ed Ianucci really cares for the children and he strives to teach discipline, honor and respect to the entire student body in the school. In a short period of time I began to see the change in my boy. He was moving with confidence and accepting responsibilities more than before and I was happy to see him grow.

In fact I saw that Darius’ school grades began to improve as well, and I consider that as another benefit of the training that Darius receives. All I can say is this, as a parent you are going to spend money on your child. You should consider the advantages of martial arts training, and consider it at Kim’s Karate."
