"Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee.
Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death.
Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong. That is your oath."
Founder - Sensei/Rev. Vitold Jordan, 7th Dan Black Belt
We follow these rules and principles avoiding any conflicts and violence in our lives. Living by what we believe in and have learned, and growing into perfection, thus building a better world today.
Concerning our Conduct?
"The Way of the Warrior is to Stop Trouble Before it Starts"
Concerning our Faith?
1. Faith alone (sola fides)
2. Grace alone (sola gratia)
3. Christ alone (solus Christus)
- Christ is not valued at all unless He is valued above all !!! Communion with God is, then, a sharing in His very Being; And true knowledge and power is, to be aware off all things in Christ. For by Him, through Him and in Him we have everything !!!
Yeshua is both Savior and Lord !!!
" Love protects always!" - 1 Cor. 13:7

4th Dan and Shidoin title for Sensei Bob Hartley, Maine, USA
Sensei Robert "Bob" Hartley started his martial arts training in 1990, in Shotokan Karate-do. Since then he has sought out learning opportunities under a variety of instructors in several styles. Those have included Full Contact Karate/Kickboxing, Hensan Ryu/Club Naha Karate-do, Tang Soo Do/Moo Duk Kwan, Tae Kwon Do/Kukkiwon, Aikido, and Escrima. He has been teaching since 1996, through formal classes, personal self defense, guest instructing, and training local police officers. He has been a Christian since 1976, and through the years (decades) has served as a Sunday School teacher, Youth Leader, Bible Camp Staff, been on the Board of Trustees, Church Board of Directors (Chair), helper on Church building/maintenance projects, and Parliamentary Advisor for annual business meetings.
After martial arts, the next favorite activity is SCUBA diving. He holds Divemaster ratings under four different international agencies, and has been asked to consider becoming an instructor. He lives with his wife and two kids, one dog, two cats, more than a dozen chickens, four turkeys and a fish in a rural farm community, where he grew up. Their homestead includes vegetable gardens, some apple trees, raspberry bushes (red, with black added this year) and a small pond, home to some pesky beavers and lots of frogs. Other enjoyable activities include biking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, volleyball, and softball.
