When did you begin martial arts training?
I started in martial arts when I was 9 years old. My parents wanted me to join a sport and martial arts caught my eye.
Why did you choose to be a part of the Leadership Team at Hero?
I joined because I wanted to learn more about being a role model and an instructor.
What is your favorite phrase that you hear Master Butler use? Why?
“Do you feel the difference?” Because when he says that, it tells me that he is seeing the change in my technique that is what he is looking for.
What are some of your hobbies, sports, or other activities that you enjoy outside of martial arts?
I am in both symphonic band and marching band.
What is a life lesson that martial arts has taught you?
That I don’t need to prove anything to anybody as long as I know. That’s all I need.

Just what the Parents ordered!! My daughter started over a year ago, after a recommendation from family. Within six months she showed great signs of improvement with her self esteem. We also utilize the Academy's after school program. We cannot stress the great benefits Hero has provided to our daughter, she is slowly finding her voice and confidence. My husband and nephew have also joined and they have nothing but great things to say about Master Butler, instructors, coaches, and students.
Work hard, play hard, have a great time, equals success!
