You've made it this far, keep going! The outside dojo is unprecedented! I called for an initial visit with my three daughters several years ago, and we are still engaged and challenged every night. Red Dragon is a friendly family dojo which maintains a high degree of professionalism. The instruction is traditional and focused on the martial arts, while also adapted to the times. Shidoshi TJ has poured his heart and soul into this school for years and it shows!

Since I am 48 years old, I worry that my physical conditioning will not allow me to protect them if I had to. My personal motivation is to better myself both mentally and physically so I can be a better person and father. Red Dragon pushes me to accomplish this, and Sensei TJ is an effective motivator. I have been a teacher with ASD for over 20 years, so I have been around all types of people young and old. Sensei TJ is as "real" as they come. He says what is on his mind and he will not lie to or coddle his students. He absolutely loves martial arts training and physical fitness. He is a wealth of knowledge about first aid, all types of weapons (including firearms), traditional Chinese forms, boxing, wrestling, and practical applications for self-defense. Sensei loves to tell stories about his past and the lessons he learned growing up in Alaska. He wants to make sure that the young people in his school make good decisions and are accountable for their actions. Red Dragon is not a "black belt factory." It is not a dojo that is motivated by money. Instead, the focus is on training and consistency. Sensei TJ always tells us that life is about choices, and you either choose to dedicate your time and train hard or choose not to. I am a busy person just like everyone else, but I make time to come 2 to 3 times a week. The dojo itself is beautiful! Sensei has spent a lot of time and effort to make both the inside dojo and the outside dojo very functional and visually stunning! We all take pride in helping to maintain it. The inside has mats, tons of equipment, a weight room and dummies. The outside has obstacle courses, climbing wall, ropes, zip line, weight equipment, weapons, dummies, and the ever-popular throwing star target. You cannot find another martial arts dojo like it anywhere else in Anchorage. It is truly one-of-a-kind. My family has been going for about 2 years now and we don't ever plan on quitting. It really is a special place, and I hope it continues to thrive!

She has gotten all of these things in spades and more from Sensei Okamoto and Shane. I cannot praise this facility enough for their commitment to their students and keeping their standards high. Kids with positive adult role models in the home and outside the home generally do better in life. The studies are there. The proof is in the pudding. It's calculable and observable. My kid was a good child before the classes (or at least that's what many have told me) but it doesn't hurt to continue to foster their good traits and positively reward that behavior with a fun activity. Big plus is that she's active physically and learning about health and wellness. She has made awesome friends in class, has an amazing time, and leaves with a huge smile.
