Gaddis Brothers
The Gaddis brothers, John and James, both started training in the early 1990’s. John Gaddis serves as the dojo Sensei (main teacher) while James serves as the dojo Sempai (senior instructor).
Starting as young boys, the Gaddis brothers have trained in primarily in Karate and Judo. Throughout their training they have come to agree that no martial art is better than any other. All martial arts relate and usually connect in fundamental ways. The Gaddis Brothers refuse to specialize and believe that being a great martial artist means being a well rounded martial artist, with an open mind and as much experience as possible.
The Gaddis Brothers believe that although martial arts has a lot to do with self defense and combat, it has just as much to do with personal development and character perfection. They try to ingrain and pass on this philosophy to all the members at their school.
