We want people to leave here after a session knowing they got a good workout, feeling confident and able to defend themselves.

In the first place, their parents probably wouldn't be able to get them to come here. But if they show up here, they'll be figured out pretty fast. Some of the girls here will put the bully in his place real fast.

The expectation are the same whether you're 4 years old or 80 years old.

Parents have been amazed to see their teenagers become black belts but with the ability to sit down and totally focus on their school homework.

With the very young ones, parents want the kids to learn to focus and pay attention. If you can't focus, you can't learn. Parents want these children to discover that learning is fun.

Any suggestion that this is persecution or sour grapes by the prosecution is wrong.
