The martial arts programs at Balanced Life Skills are not just another after school activity. Yes we teach martial arts and self defense. But there is so much more.

We are in the business of being extraordinary human beings, practicing the martial arts in ways that takes what we learn on the mat into the world.
As the Head Instructor I know that I am at my best when I take on the responsibility for the welfare of my community and accept the fact that I and others can do 100 – times what we are currently doing in and for the world.
It is for that reason that our goal is to teach all of our students to find their ‘best’ inside of themselves. We will battle apathy, anger, waste and mediocrity. We will look at environmentalism, peace, non-violence and compassion. We look to solve problems with innovation, creativity and determination.
Using the martial arts, our students will learn new skills affecting their diet, the environment, anger management, respect for others, being kind to others. All of us will work together to engage in community activism and not quit when things are not going as planned.
