Arizona Karate & Kobudo

I first joined Soke Hausel's dojo in Laramie where I still live. In fact I had visited a lot of karate schools over the years bbecause it has always been a dream of mine to learn. It wasn't until I found Soke Hausel teaching in Laramie that I finally found a good fit for my idea of what "real" karate is about.

Almost six years later I look at the benfits, both mental and physical I have gained by practicig karate and I know that I will be still doing kata on the day my maker sends me the pink slip of life.

I am honored to be one of Soke's Sensei and it is priviledge to serve a higher casue than that of myself by freely giving back to others the skills I have gained in my association with Seiyo No Shorin-Ryu.

I have three children and three grand children...none of them live in Laramie any more but I am blessed to have time and financial freedom to travel and spend time with them when their busy schedules allow.

In addition to Karate I own a business and work in the industry of "personal development." I have three quarter horses and love any activity that involves the great outdoors.
