Someone asked me, why I do this and why for FREE? This isn't just a passion, it's a lifestyle. Martial Arts saved has saved my life many times. This isn't work for me, it's a lifestyle for me and those I love. It's a pleasure to share this with the community. I provide a service to those who need it most. The youth, elderly, veterans, neurodiverse and underserved communities. I can go back to my neighborhood in Jersey where I grew up, but honestly there is a martial arts school on every block. New York made me, and on my darkest days it was the Jamaica/Hollis community that was there for me, it's a pleasure to give back. I don't draw a salary and volunteer my time and services, unfortunately expansion will take funding. 500 signatures will get us one step closer.
