We made it to ten years!!! For those of you who have been with us over the long haul, you know there were times when things got pretty crazy. Covid definitely tested the strength of the school, and the slow climb back has been challenging at times!

As I look back on all the challenges and amazing things that have happened over the years, there is one constant: our students. Kensho has been incredibly lucky to not only have a remarkable student body and support system, but every single person who walks though our doors exhibits the crucial element that separates those who survive the fires of training and those who quit…commitment. To themselves, to the art, to the process, to their training partners, to their instructors, to the school. And most importantly, to taking the lessons off the mat—they are committed to making the world a better place for everyone.

Whether you have been with us from the beginning or are new to your journey, we can’t thank you enough for choosing us and allowing us to be a part of your lives. You are what make this dojo special—your unique blend of experiences, perspectives, insights, strengths, and weaknesses all help create the sense of community and belonging this world desperately needs. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for your continued support through the thick and thin of it all!

And if you think tis might be your time to join our amazing team, today is the last day to take advantage of the $10 deal! (You’ll have to call/text or message us since we’re closed today. We’ll honor the time stamp on reaching out.)

06-06-2026 We had two ends of the spectrum today! Three of our white belts nailed their first test! Signing up just before the last test meant they had plenty of time to become skilled in their material and prepared for today. And they did a fantastic job representing Kensho! At the other end, we had two brown belts audit for this summer's black felt test. One of the things about being independently owned is that we can pivot when circumstances call for it. Today we had a different kind of audit, and they both did awesome, earning an official invitation to test in August. Congratulations to everyone!!!

The June Free Community Classes are just a couple days away! We’ve taken a few phone calls for questions already, so we thought we’d throw this out there for anyone who had the same:

Do I need to register?
No! Classes are drop-in!

Do I need previous experience?
Absolutely not! Classes are designed for beginners, but even if you’ve had training in the past, you’ll still learn a thing or two.

I have to work-can someone else drop off my kids?
Yes! But minors will need to have a waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian on file to participate! We can email you a copy and you can send it with them.

What should I wear or bring with me?
Any loose fitting clothes that you can move freely in are great! You probably won’t need it, but a water bottle is a good idea, too.

What are these classes about?
While we have a plan (each class is different and will address a common threat each group faces), we take questions from the participants first! If you have had a past experience you’d like to know a better response to or a “what-if”, we want to address those concerns.

Will there be a “work out”?
Nope-these classes are meant to address specific concerns and specific situations. You’ll be learning prevention tactics, basic strikes, and simple defensive moves. We’ll save the push-ups for group classes!

Is there an age limit?
Yes—for kids, it’s ages 7-14.
For women, due to the sensitive nature of some topics, the minimum age is 14. There is no upper limit!

“Know Thyself” is inscribed at the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. It’s a straightforward maxim that seems an easy task. But is it?

It’s one thing to know what your favorite food is or your favorite color. And most people can probably pin down some of their roles in life beyond the basic familial and career aspects. Some people spend enough time in introspection to develop a sense of why they may behave a certain way. Even fewer will question the lenses through which these labels influence our perceptions.
