Sensei Amber Bogner 5th Dan
I am a mom to three amazing young adults and have a BS in Computer Information Systems, as well as recently earning my 5th degree black belt (2025). My karate journey began during the summer of 2012, a few months after my kids started taking classes. Karate has made me a better person and greatly improved both my self-esteem and confidence. I love not only passing on my karate knowledge to my students but also the life lessons and skills I have learned during my journey.
Sensei Colin Ailstock
I started my martial arts journey at the age of 12. Early in my training I realized how significant martial arts was in my life and I knew that it would be a lifelong compassion of mine. After earning my 2nd degree back belt, I had to step away from martial arts. After four years, I have come back with an even stronger passion and a greater desire to make martial arts a lifelong journey.
