Student Home Page

Notice: This Site has moved and is no longer being updated!!!

The New Site is updated daily and is located at www.ohiomartialarts.com























Welcome to the student information site for the Martial Arts Center!


Sempai Blanco and I hope you will visit here often to update yourself on upcoming events, announcements, and even to get information about how to maximize your study of the Martial Arts. 
 
Remember to check the calendar for school closings, important dates etc!!!

Here are a few things to be aware of in this section.

- During bad weather this home page (Student Home Page)  is the place to check for dojo closings.

- All of our dojo rank and testing requirements are now listed in one place. Read about rank and testing and you can click the appropriate link. You will find it much easier to know when you are getting close to testing eligibility in large part due to the number of classes you've attended. Read the section "Rank and Testing" carefully.

- All dojo announcements and a calendar are on this site and updated regularly; just click the link for "Calendar and Announcements" on the side bar; make sure to check BOTH the calendar and announcement section!

- "Lessons in Mindfulness" is now available to you in one easy click. Just click the link "Lessons in Mindfulness". If you don't have a password to view the lessons, see Sensei or Sempai.
 
This site is new, so there are sections that are going to be added to and updated very soon so check back often.

Most of all I want this site to be a useful tool for all of you. I don't want it to be one of those stagnant commercial sites, but want to add to it and improve it frequently. I hope you enjoy it so far!

Welcome everyone, new and old, congratulations, your journey begins here!

Martial Arts Center Events


Here is a video of my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu teacher Professor Dunn. Take a few 
moments not only notice his technique, but also listen to what he says. He's
 highlighting what makes his dojo - and ours - unique.



Below is a video of my Kung Fu teacher Sifu Brown talking about his dojo briefly.
As you know he has had the most profound influence on the culture and teaching
style of our dojo.
