I went here as a kid seven years ago and loved it. The instructor was super awesome and i learned so much from him. I have carried that momentum for years and it truly did change my life. I can still do lots of the moves that I learned. This place was a huge boost of confidence and I am glad to see that the same instructor is still there after all this time. You could find this somewhere on Facebook, but I did a 180 degree angle with my legs while doing a sidekick. One doesn’t go here and just learn some fancy foot flicks, it’s a place to learn discipline and gain confidence.
I went to Churchill High School in San Antonio with Steve Ashcraft in 74 and 75 and I consider him then a good Friend. I remember back then, when he told me he had just opened his studio. I stopped in one day to say hi, and he showed me around. I am writing this comment in August of 2025, nearly 50 years latter to say how extremely proud I am of Steve for sticking with passion and never ever quitting or giving up on his dream. Thank you Steve Ashcraft for being a good friend and a tremendous roll model for our future leaders of tomorrow. Amazing!!!
