Bobby Lawrence Karate has taught our children not only karate, but so much more about life. They have learned respect, confidence, discipline and what is truly important in life. They have learned how to set a goal and achieve it. They have made great friends. They have learned how to be taught and how to be leaders. They have learned self defense, stranger danger and encouraged to keep their bodies strong and healthy by avoiding drugs or anything that is harmful to their body and mind. Now that our son is a black belt, he is so glad he made the commitment to join six years ago. Ourdaughter is looking forward to follow in her brother's footsteps.

Our experience with Dallas Lawrence and the Bobby Lawrence Karate system has been phenomenal - some of the finest teaching and team-building we have ever experienced. Our son has learned tremendous skills, practices, and values that extend well beyond karate. He has also made great friends and enjoyed the influence of fine student leaders. We are proud to be part of the Bobby Lawrence Karate family and highly recommend the program to anyone looking to enhance their physical skills, leadership potential and character.

We decided to try Karate because We had heard that they emphasize not only the physical aspects of the sport, but also a very positive competitive spirit. As a mom I was very hesistant to have my son learn "fighting" (or what I thought Karate was about). I met with the head instructor of the A.F. school, and he told me about the mission of the Bobby Lawrence schools. I have never been so impressed with a sports program in all my life.

As an adult martial arts student, I realize the best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The next best time is right now. I am very glad I did not let my age keep me from signing up for karate. Adults seem to gain a certain passion and energy from this type of activity. I also feel like I can relate to my children better and I have an opportunity to be more involved in their lives.
