OUR SCHOOL:

Sensei Gabrielle (Gabby) began practicing the art of Shorin-Ryu Karate in 1998 at the age of four . Her parents enrolled her in karate so she would have the opportunity to grow mentally, physically and spiritually, with the opportunity to be and act like a child! Gabby's years of experience are easily identifiable when watching her demonstrate many techniques. Her speed, power and skills have grown tremendously as a student and more important as an instructor.

Sensei Stephanie Whitten became involved with the program after actively assisting her daughter with learning drills, kicks, punches and katas. Once a student of the program her passion for the art grew rapidly. She has been training in 1999. Sensei has been teaching the art of Shorin-Ryu karate-do since 2003.

After sitting by passionately watching Sensei Gabby and Stephanie get promoted, Sensei George decided to join the fun. He has been studying in 2000 and assist Sensei Gabby and Stephanie with instructional training. George is also a personal trainer.

Daniel Whitten is a Jr. Black Belt and assist with teaching the younger students. He has been an active student since 2000 and enjoys teaching and demonstrating his abilities. The younger two Isaiah and Kyla are also involved with the program. We have made it a family commitment to learn together and stay in-shape as a family!

We are an enthusiastic family who have a shared interest in the art of Karate-Do and a passion for helping others. We enjoy the opportunity to work together and hope that collectively, we can bring great value and teaching to the program.
 

We encourage everyone to pursue the art of self-discipline, respect, confidence, self-control, self-esteem, and preservation individually or as a family!
