               The gift received from training Martial Arts is only as great as the dedication of the individual...

I am a student of Shotokan Karate-Do, living in Port Hardy British Columbia,

 and hold the rank of ISKF Nidan.  Among the many benefits of 

martial arts training are better health and quality of life.  Always train hard, and keep an open mind.
