I trained with Shihan Cormier for years, during some of the most formative of my life. His impact on me as a person and martial artist cannot be understated. Though I no longer practice Goju Ryu, everywhere I went the skills and lessons I gained from Bu Ke Do Goju Ryu Karate have played a part in both training and life.

My family has known Shihan Cormier for 5+ years as our two sons were in the Junior karate program. He is a wonderful teacher who balances fun and learning. He truly respects the "art" of martial arts. I doubt you could do better in MetroWest than at Cormiers

Our eight year old has been training in karate at Cormier's for two years and loves it. We really value Jim Cormier's extensive knowledge and experience and his dedication to teaching his students. Jim takes a great deal of pride in his art and each student receives individual attention in every class. In addition to the physical karate skills our son is being taught, it is awesome to see he is also learning so many life skills like responsibility, perseverance, respect, and assertiveness to name just a few. We feel very lucky to have found Cormier's Self Defense Academy!
