Thoughts of an Instructor: I have been an instructor for seven years and have taught at the St. Clair dojo for the last five years, you get to see people develop and grow up. Having taught many kids and adults I have gained confidence and hopefully and easy going style that helps students to become better karate-ka practitioners. One of the good things about being an instructor for GKR is having your students grade to the next level, especially when they grade to a high level you have a good feeling that you have helpedthem get there. For me GRK hasbecome a way of life, I look forward to the training and the level of fitness it brings, the strong style of karate develops a sense of humility that crosses many aspects of life and gives me confidence in all the things I do.

Words of Wisdom: Try something different when you spar do not become predictable. Do not become complacent there is always room for improvement.
