Located in the Von's Shopping Plaza, the United Studios of Self Defense offers a variety of classes for all ages and for all levels of training. The Shaolin Kempo School of karate and martial arts is taught here, in private or group classes. Class sizes and schedules vary, with morning, afternoon, after-school and evening sessions. The discipline of learning the martial arts requires respect, dedication and commitment. Students here often compete in local tournaments and are awarded different belts of the karate school. The owner gives a free two-week trial to anyone wishing to test the martial arts waters.
