What Our Students Say About Our Program
“Fantastic place to learn martial arts which is applicable to any environment. I joined after hearing about it from a friend and after two years I still love it. The black belts are very knowledgeable and great teachers. If you want to learn how to defend yourself Powell’s Way of Kenpo is the place for you.”

You’ll learn self control, confidence, discipline, and the skills needed to defend yourself in almost any situation.”

“Absolutely the BEST place to learn Kenpo karate, Brazillian ju jitsu, reality self defense in one place that I’ve ever experienced. Best instructors, best training for life long skills. I trained there for about 3 yrs when they first moved to Brookfield and learned more than I could ever list in a review, not just techniques but ways of thinking, observation, readiness, REALITY karate.”
