Foundation Feedback
V-Town Family Karate is grateful and proud to be the first recipients of the Tang Soo Do Foundation Grant. Our students live in the Black Belt of Alabama with high unemployment, in very rural and isolated conditions. There are no community activities to occupy their energy. Children come from the surrounding communities which makes this the only integrated activity in the area. Karate gives our students a totally wholistic experience.

I am proud of my grandson. He is learning to interact with other children and learning self-defense. He takes pride in what he is learning and is more self-confident.

James M. Sheffield

I work with children who have taken karate through this program and find that they have found empowerment through the discipline of practicing their art. In general, I think karate helps children, with diagnoses like Attention Deficit Disorder, to learn focus, and the physical discipline helps them learn to control themselves. I think an extra side benefit is that children have increased self-esteem through participation and through feeling that they have become better at something tangible.
