Sensei, it is an honor to train under your guidance; you and the spirit of your Dojo have touched our lives in an incredible and positive way.
Respectfully,
Mr. Simon King
Green Belt (6th Kyu)
I just wanted to let all the students know that I have taken some private lessons from Sensei. What a "HUGE" impact it has had on my learning! I feel much more comfortable now and have a lot more confidence! I can honestly say it has "jump started" my martial arts training by at least 3 months ahead!!!
Thank you Sensei,
Mr. Kyle Hook

ommunity Service: To the far left is a photo of some of our students and parents who participated in our latest Kick-A-Thon to help raise research monies for Families With Spinal Muscular Atrophy. To the left and above are photos of ZenBu parents and students, some of the many members of our "Dojo Family, 
who learned to make origami cranes and participated in our "1,000 Get Well Cranes for Delaney." We presented the Cranes to Delaney, age 5, who was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. We also occasionally have "Special Trainings with Sensei" at country retreats as pictured in the photo on the right.
Our students range in age from 4 to 60 and older. The values we teach, although important for everyone, are especially important for younger students. The Martial Arts build young minds and bodies by building confidence through knowledge. Dealing with bullies, mental self-defense, environmental self-defense, nutitional self-defense, self-respect and respect for others and stranger awareness are all cornerstones of our program.
Helping Bulid Better Lives

ONE MERIT BADGES is a simple and effective life skills instruction system for school age children. It is much more than badges. It is an innovative and unique system that effectively teaches important life skills in an age-specific manner. It is appealing and inspiring to all children. Parents, you will immediately see the value in this awesome program. Each and every session students will be given the opportunity to earn a merit badge to proudly display on their uniform.
As important as self-defense is, we teach so much more than self defense. Life lessons and physical skills are an important part of the training, every step of the way.
Becoming a Black Belt isn’t just a goal. It is a journey that becomes a way of life. For all our students we have monthly Successl Word themes such as Self-Discipline and Integrity and for our adult students we supplement our monthly themes with martial arts lessons from Jack Canfield (co-creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books)'s Success Principles. In addition, we also incorporate The Secret teachings.
As soon as you become a student, you are part of our "Dojo Community," working together toward improved physical strength and stamina, better overall health and stronger mental discipline. We respect each other. We encourage and support each other. We celebrate each other’s successes.
Please click on the free coupon in the upper left and give us a visit. We look forward to meeting you!
What we teach here is principle before personality. We believe in our community and we believe in our students. We really care! We challenge and reward all our students with the hopes of helping them come out of our dojo better people---better people who can move forward and provide positive contributions to the world. We truly do "make leaders---one black belt at a time!"
Our martial arts school, located in beautiful Vista, CA, teaches Taekwondo kicking techniques, Japanese karate hand and foot combinations and devastating Okinawan self-defense techniques. We are not an orange belt or brown belt school, but a Black Belt Academy.
Our students are committed to becoming the highest standard Black Belts possible and we are committed to getting them to black belt and beyond.
