I am a credentialed teacher and hold a doctorate in education. I have been going to this studio for several years. I started back in 1997 when I witnessed my students who had been attending improve in their academics and classroom participation. Their self-esteem shot through the roof.

I worked all the way through to my second degree black belt over the years, taking time off to have a daughter and work on my doctorate.

What I observed over the years, and as my own daughter has taken several classes and is moving up the ranks, is a dojo with discipline, ethics, and heart. I have personally observed Master Armen Heroian working with children at many different levels and ages. He has had tremendous success with children with special needs, including with children I have personally referred. I have also witnessed Master Armen living the tenets of the dojo: effort, etiquette, sincerity, character, and self-control. He has done so with his own children, and treats my own daughter like family.

He has extremely high expectations, yet meets everyone where they are. He gives each individual exactly what they need to grow. Sometimes, as we all know, some people do not like to be pushed to seek out their limits. That is an unfortunate mistake on their part. Sometimes, as parents, we

coddle, our children need to know they can stand alone. ..to find success. We stunt their growth when we interrupt the process. Whether they learn it through the dojo, through taking tremendously rigorous courses in college while supporting a family, or whatever life has to throw at them, they need to know that they may be pushed to their limits, BUT THEY WILL NOT BREAK.

That is the GIFT I have been given by Master Armen, and the gift that he gives to my daughter and my current and former students.

Thank you Master Armen and everyone else who has had such a tremendous impact on my life.

This school is awesome. I have been training here since 1991 and I don't regret a single class. Master Heroian is an awesome instructor. He inspires us all as students to strive to be our best in not just the martial arts, but in daily life. He makes the classes not only upbeat and fun, but Master Heroian also stays in touch with what is going on in the area to make our training more practical for the streets. This school is one you definitely want to check out. You won't be disappointed.
