Testimonials

My practice provides me with a holistic approach —  a solid mind-body connection. I’ve learned to quiet my mind, still my hands, focus on movements, and stay present in the moment.

This journey to self-discovery is not one you make alone. 

How supportive and beautiful our karate family truly is. THANK YOU!!

Bobbi Ann Brady

From my first class in June 2018 to this weekend at the WKC Canada Nationals.

Thank you to everyone at Martial Arts Canada and The Pitt, so many of you have taken the time to work with me, to challenge me and to support me when I have needed it.

Adam Pileski
