Omg the lady I think her name is Mary, she's a powerful instructor here. I saw her almost punch another woman. My kids want to come to training but they see it and they don't want it anymore, I won't let them go

During tournaments Sensi Copeland always demonstrates empathtic leadership . I have witnessed on a number of occasions when he has paused to mentor competitors overwhelmed by nerves/ temporaily shaken from a sparring hit . He quickly brings smiles back to their faces and reignites their sprit with his kind demeanour and humour . We are making a longer than normal drive for their tournament in June because of our respect and support for his consitent example.

I don't usually write on these blogs but came across some negative reviews about sensei and felt the need to share our story. My daughter started attending coplands in March of 18. Since then her growth has been amazing. She is upset if we can't get there at least 1/2 early. She's a yellow belt now and talks about being black belt one day. Her relationship with Sensei has a pleasure to watch. I had a difficult decision in picking where I wanted her to attend karate as I have some personal relationships in the community. I can say without a shadow of a doubt I made the right decision. If you're

Sensei Copeland is so good with the kids. My son loves going to karate every week and he is even better behaved at home. I would recommend to any parent looking for a place for their child to learn karate.
