Our award presentation was included in tonight's Agoura Hills City Council Meeting on their youtube.com link. We have posted it here though it includes the entire City Council Meeting. The portion of our award presentation and acceptance is at 10:32 through 20:38 of the video. It was also gratifying to have the pleasure this evening of seeing Council members and/or their children that we taught as well years ago.

Such an incredible honor tonight to not just receive an award of recognition from the City of Agoura Hills, but to hear such heartwarming words of support From Mayor Penny Sylvester and Dr. Marc Silverman made it difficult for Johnny and I to speak. We could never thank all of our past and present JGK students, families and supporters enough for their incredible loyalty through the years. June 12, 2025 officially marked our JGK 30th anniversary and we still feel as excited to get on the mat together as we did that first day in 1995. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making what we do for a living not seem like work at all. It truly is and has been our privilege and honor.

Today marks our opening day at Johnny Gyro Karate in Agoura Hills 29 amazing years ago!! We are so honored and proud to have met so many truly wonderful students, families, neighbors and friends over the years that became, and so many still are, such a meaningful part of our JGK studio family today! Working with children comes with huge responsibilities to build them up by instilling lifelong positive core values and this became the extremely rewarding and gratifying part of our career that we treasure the most. Our adult students are incredible to work with, they are dedicated, committed and so enthusiastic about their Martial Arts. If we could have handpicked all those that have entered our doors through the years, we could not have chosen more supportive, positive and appreciative families! Thank you to everyone that is or has been a part of Johnny Gyro Karate for the past 29 years with our sincerest gratitude for making it possible for us to absolutely love what we do for a living every day. It is and has been a privilege and an honor. We are and will be forever grateful to you all!

To all those valiant men and women that are actively serving today and risking everything, you are undoubtedly among the bravest and most selfless individuals in our nation. We are eternally grateful to every member of our military and to our heroic first responders as well for their honorable and dedicated service.
