Why did you begin martial arts training? Why do you continue to train?
I've been training since 2007. I began after watching my son train. It looked fun and so I decided to try.
What is your favorite part about instructing/coaching at Hero?
I love to see others in their personal moments of victory. I just love that moments when someone smiles because they can do something they never dreamed they could.
What is your favorite phrase that you hear Master Butler use? Why?
I love it when Master Butler talks about limitless mind. It is really a phrase that I believe encompasses what martial arts is. It applies to so many situations and facets of martial arts and life.
What are some of your hobbies, sports, or other activities that you enjoy outside of martial arts?
I love to read, sing, and crochet. I dabble (which is a generous description) with guitar and piano. I also plan to take up stained glass and quilting as soon as I can find the time.
What is a life lesson that martial arts has taught you?
You can do so much more than you think you can.
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!
