    I started at Shaw's about 4 years ago and I have had such a great experience. I have met some of my best friends there and I have had the honor of getting to know both Mr. Powell and Mr. Shaw. I just got my Purple belt yesterday.

    This is not just a place where you punch and kick, this is a family.

    I attend the family karate classes with my kids, and it has been a great martial arts experience. Mr. Powell is an excellent instructor for both kids and adults. Great environment, and all of the advanced students are very supportive as well.
