The secrets of karate will reveal themselves to you. The secrets of karate of Master Shimabuku! After dreadful training lasting through the night: I wake up in the morning to witness dawns first light. Across the rays of dunshine he reveals himself to me. I listen for the secrets in kiba da chi. The secrets of karate will reveal themselves to you. The secrets of karate of Master Shima buku!

As someone that comes from a teaching background, I am happily impressed with how Master Hughes pays attention to each individual and give insights I don't think you would get from other instructors.

Master Hughes is really an amazing person and cares greatly about all of his students. There is an authentic environment at this school, both with its respectful community, and it’s age-old teachings designed to be the most effective. There is no better school in Western North Carolina, and I highly recommend attending here.
