About Us
Warriors of Grace is a family-oriented Severn Karate school where students can have fun while learning valuable life skills. Our training is centered around building better people, following principles in Christian faith, and treating everyone with respect. In some sections of our training we use parents to help our students. This provides students a one-of-a-kind experience. Our mission is to help students become better martial artists, athletes, and people!
Karate
Our style is Okinawa Goju Ryu. A system that focuses on all aspects of self defense – from striking, stand-up grappling, to ground work. For our older kids and teens, we also teach competition type sparring. Teens, advanced students and adults, participate in partner training, using focus mitts, shields and other equipment. Partner work is also used to develop self defense competency and confidence in a safe environment.
As Karate school owners and operators, my wife and I still take lessons and participate in seminars to keep up with our continued education in the martial arts. Our teachers are GKC Global directors, Paul Enfield 8th degree (Kyoshi) and Michelle Vanderlinden Enfield, six degree (Renshi). Here is the link for GKC Global.
