Certification Matters Three Tips to Choosing a Martial Arts School

Certification Matters Three Tips to Choosing a Martial Arts School Choosing a martial arts school has always been a guessing game for most parents. Unless they have prior experience, to them, any style is coined “karate” so deciding on the best place is purely a guess. Parents generally look for a school that teaches punching and kicking, emphasizes discipline, and builds confidence. And while many schools are successful in delivering those results, many do so in ways that don’t truly tap into the deeper levels of science and psychology in order to make these benefits long-lasting. Therefore, finding martial arts schools that require certifications, so staff are ....

White Tiger Karate has changed our world and not only boosted the confidence of our shy 11 year old, but improved his dependance and respect for others already! Sensei Sharyl and all of the coaches we have met are just truly amazing! Not to mention the amazing children who participate, WOW!!!! We travel far to this location and it's worth every mile!!! Sooo happy we have found WTK!!!!

Beth Crandall

Some of the happiest moments of my life have happened at this dojo. My first time breaking a board, my first time completing a thousand kicks for charity, and the first feelings of confidence that I have the power and the strength to defend myself. I would recommend Sensei Sharyl Geisert's instruction for any child who has trouble fitting in, has anxiety, or just wants a place where they feel like they can be themselves. It's not just for kids, either! Warriors of all ages are treated with respect and a wise hand. Sensei Sharyl knows how to meet individuals of all levels of fitness where they're at. You always leave feeling stronger than when you came.

In summation, I really have seen the difference White Tiger Karate has made in people's lives in the community, and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

As a student of Great Grandmaster Pai, the founder of Pai Lum Kung Fu, I can attest to the White Tiger Karate dedication to Pai Lum traditional quality training methods for development of young Dragons and Tigers. Some students are advance to train as teachers of this diverse martial arts system to pass on this knowledge. Shīfu Ray Carpenter.
