Founder, Headmaster
At Sensei Symone Karate Academy, we believe in shaping confident, respectful, and disciplined individuals through traditional Shotokan karate. Our shared vision is to create a nurturing space for students of all backgrounds to grow physically, emotionally, and mentally. We aim to keep the spirit of karate alive while teaching values of humility, strength, perseverance, and community. By blending ancient martial traditions with modern learning techniques, we guide students to unlock their full potential. Every punch, stance, and kata is a step toward personal excellence, inner peace, and a better world through the values of martial arts.
