I attended Peaceful Warrior Martial Arts & Healing Center in 2011 - six months after my third daughter was born. I am the mom of three daughters, 16, 14, and 9. They loved seeing me come home feel so great from every class I take at this place. Sensei Tiffany establishes the karate: Shorin-Ryu style curriculum where the students can see themselves continuing the karate training, along with the terms of self-defense techniques, Japanese words to speak, the history of Shorin-Ryu with many masters who developed the katas we learn at the dojo. There are excellent Sensei at the dojo who passionately teach the students from age 5 to 99, they make sure the students having good time, too. I will be 55 in February and I feel I OWN my age because I could do those self-defenses and the katas I work so hard to learn. It is WORTH of your lifetime!

The dojo has quite a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Everytime I train here, there are always instructors (even students) who are willing to help you out. Along with numerous instructors with diverse backgrounds in different martial arts styles, I can always leave classes here learning something new.

I've been a student of traditional Japanese martial arts for 46 years and I can tell you that this is the most enjoyable dojo to which I have belonged. And this place has everything. Even through the struggles of the COVID pandemic, students as well as instructors have dedicated themselves to maintaining the highest skill levels - for which Peaceful Warrior has been renowned since 2010. Because of the diverse backgrounds of Sensei Tiffany and her senior instructors, the school is able to offer many different classes - not just in traditional Shorin Ryu karate and Okinawan weapons (kobudo), but other disciplines as well. In addition, senior instructors continue to put out Youtube martial arts content that is viewed by thousands of practitioners around the world. Sensei Tiffany is also starting a brand new, nationwide program (Jan 2020) called Peaceful Warrior Woman (PWW) - which is a holistic resource for those who have been, are being or want to prevent assault or abuse. There are several services within PWW available that can help women in those situations get their lives back. The course is the only one that I know of in the country designed AS WELL AS taught by a woman. Sensei Tiffany offers her fantastic physical skills along with personal insight (learned, unfortunately, through experience as well as massive market research) to this invaluable program. And also as of January 2020, an incredible fitness instructor - Jenna Venatta and her company - Iron Image Fitness, are also now affiliated with Peaceful Warrior as well. Our warehouse has been converted into a large fitness facility where she conducts her classes. Iron Image gives Peaceful Warrior students and their families the opportunity to get in the best shape of their lives - simply by being part of our dojo family. The entire student body of Peaceful Warrior is incredibly welcoming and carries themselves with a humility that is rare - especially nowadays. Camaraderie is fostered through lots and lots of great sweat. I've studied other arts at dojo where everything is about the instructor and there is a negative energy that leads to high student turnover and dissatisfaction. Not here. Peaceful Warrior is a great place to learn and it is obvious that helping the students to grow and strive for personal excellence is the top priority. I highly recommend it.

I have taken women’s self defense classes and the cardio kickboxing classes at Peaceful Warrior. After taking the self defense class I had more self confident and felt empowered. This class gave me the knowledge to insure I will not be a victim. The Cardio kick-box class is a tuff workout. When I would check into class it was a great mental and physical release at the end of the day. At the end of class I felt so refreshed and the weight of the day was gone. The teachers at Peaceful Warrior are very knowledgeable in helping you achieve your goals. I have met many people that share the same goals I have. I am a better person because of Peaceful Warriors. Thank you Tiffany Richards for everything you do. Julie Huey

Absolutely love this place and the people. Started my son training here about 8 years ago, and I’ve trained here for about 4. Everyone here has become part of our family. The instructors are the best—knowledgeable in multiple systems while focusing on the tradition of Okinawan karate (Shorin-Ryu), attentive to the individual needs of the students, and deeply care about each student’s progression.
