“Ultimately, it’s the instructors at the Long Beach Studio that keep me going. Z-Ultimate Long Beach really is like one big family!  After seeing your commitment to my son’s martial arts development (he’s been with Z-Ultimate LB for 4 years), I decided to join as a fun way to improve my health and learn some practical self-defense. Z-Ultimate has provided this, and much more. Through your support and encouragement, you have given me a determination to keep chipping away at small goals in both physical conditioning and self-defense.”

Thank you, John Timberlake (Parent and Student)

Testimonial from The Walkers
“My Daughter Kayla is 8 yrs old, outgoing, but sometimes undecided about things, she is 8. Well, we tried a few sports and activities to help encourage a positive influence and get her to exercise and face her fears. As parents we were frustrated, we thought she just got bored easy. Kayla has been in Karate 1 1/2 years. Has been to 3 tournaments and placed 2nd, 3rd, and 1st. We’re proud of her without saying but we’ve met a wonderful person in Sensei Karla and her staff.”

Thank you,
The Walkers

Testimonial from Carrie 
Sensei, In my heart I believe that Martial arts is for everyone – Z-Ultimate has given me the courage to learn and carry on. “

Best Regards,
Carrie Templeman

Testimonial from Jenn:
“Your classes teach self control and meditation. This has brought new meaning to my daughter, because she is able to use what she has learned in the dojo to real life situations at home. With just a simple reminder of self control and meditation to calm down, she is learning to calm herself enough to express her feelings appropriately. What a drastic difference! Thanks again to Karla and her team.”

Sincerely, Jenn

Testimonial from Savinay C.
“I couldn’t love our instructors more. You remember how reticent I was when I first started (aikido anyone?), and I’m here three months later with a yellow belt ready to re-up my membership 100% because of the Z-Ultimate instructors I’ve met, of whom the LB dojo folks are the best (all due respects to the rest).”

Your humble student,
Sav

Testimonial from Mary B.
“I want to thank all of you for your encouragement and unwavering support. I am in awe of your dedication to all your students at the Long Beach dojo. Your commitment and determination in helping us to achieve even the smallest goals is what keeps me there. How blessed and fortunate I am to have all of you as instructors. In addition, all my teammates that continually show support and encouragement is unbelievable. It’s like one big family support system here at the Long Beach dojo.

What an honor it is to be associated with such great and humbled instructors. It doesn’t get any better than this. With much appreciation and respect for all that you do.”

Your humble student, Mary Barela

Testimonial from Kristen K.
“When I first began training at Z-Ultimate Self Defense Studios, I could barely make it through an hour long workout without stopping to catch my breath.  My doctor diagnosed me with exertion-induced asthma.  I immediately wondered how it would affect my ability to successfully train in martial arts.  However, in my time at Z-Ultimate, it has become much easier for me to manage my asthma … Z-Ultimate definitely made it easier for me to breathe.”  Kristen Keebaugh, Black Belt 1st Degree


Testimonial from Mayra
“I want to start this email by say thank you so much for your support!! Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would do anything like enter a tournament. I’m kinda of shy (hard to believe I know) and though I was nervous, and my hands were shaking a bit I didn’t feel like running for the hills. That’s big!! If it weren’t for the confidence you have given me in the last few months I just don’t think Sunday would have been possible! Thank you for your patience and your encouragement. I have fallen in love with Kempo and have set goals for myself that again I never thought possible. I’m going work hard to get ready for June and with your guidance I am sure my nerves will be gone and will instead be replaced with excitement. Again thank you for everything!”

-Mayra


Testimonial from Pat L.
“I want to thank you for making me a more confident person. During the two hour self-defense class that you offered to Team in Training participants last fall, I learned a number of important skills and techniques that together changed the way that I feel about my ability to take care of myself should I need to do so.”

Sincerely, Pat Lynch, Ph.D.


Testimonial from Anna
Now that Eric has attended a few months at the dojo I feel that it is a good time to look back and measure his progress. First of all, I want to share with you how difficult it was for our family to find the right martial arts studio for Eric because of his social impairments. Being on the autism spectrum as well as having ADHD was something not all studios were experienced in or ready for. Visiting other studios was very intimidating for Eric and caused him some anxiety. He was initially timid but not afraid of entering your studio. The free trail lessons were a fantastic way of letting him see what he was going to commit to. He was hooked after one lesson.

As a parent I was worried about all the mental and physical demands martial arts training would place on him. There was a learning curve, but Eric was able to follow along well. Karla and Sergio were firm but kind in their teaching methods which is exactly what Eric needed. A few months ago I would have never guessed that Eric would be so involved and interested in progressing in karate. Now, he has moved up a belt and is excited to learn and train for the next one. He has demonstrated a new level of focus during his lessons and at home when he practices. Improvements can be seen with his ability to plan ahead and organize.

We enjoy watching his growth and progress and know that it is helping him become stronger inside and out.

Thank you. Anna
