Now, after getting her junior black-belt from US Karate Systems, I'm scared of my daughter. I'm now seeking counseling, and may have to sign up for classes myself"..</I></div> <div> <B>Ehren and Darlene Achee</B></div> <div> <B> - Lena's Mom & Dad</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"US Karate Systems has had a tremendously positive impact on our 10 year-old daughter, Avery. Since her enrollment in the summer of 2005, Avery has participated not only in Karate instruction, but also in after-school care and Summer Camps. </I></div> <div> <I>Dean Goldade and his staff blend traditional Karate instruction with modern martial arts and a great deal of fun. He has helped Avery become a good citizen, student, and young lady through their 2+ years of interaction. The US Karate Systems folks have helped our daughter learn to focus her efforts and energy and have improved her balance, strength, and physical conditioning. </I></div> <div> <I>US Karate Systems is a great place for parents wanting to have a safe, positive, and caring learning environment for their children. We recommend it highly". </I></div> <div> <B>Bob and Lisa Brundrett</B></div> <div> <B> - Avery & Riley's Mom & Dad</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"We highly recommend US Karate to parents. Our son has been a student for almost seven years and our daughter for two. They have participated in many of the programs that Mr. Goldade offers, including:</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>* Martial Arts Curriculum</I><I> - Several different styles, finding what works best for the kids, all while building confidence in themselves and the ability to deal with others. The classes have many kids who serve as mentors. This has given Derek & Faith the opportunity to see and learn great leadership skills.</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>* Martial Arts Seminars - My son trained with a guy who trained with Bruce Lee ... Brazilian Jujitsu; directly from Brazil ... how cool is that!!!!</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>* After School Camps - Safe and respectful environment; quiet area to get homework done, and an opportunity to build lasting friendships with kids from all over the school district.</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>* Summer Camps - Always a scary time for parents... to say it again... safe and respectful with a good dose of Martial Arts, Swimming and Pizza.</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>Dean and his school are an integral part of our life; we trust him with our most precious possessions ... our kids ... who by the way love learning about martial arts and are proud to be a part of U.S. Karate.</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>Many thanks to Dean, his family and staff ... we appreciate what you do for us."</I></div> <div> <B>Jim & Shawn Walton</B></div> <div> <B> - Derek & Faiths Mom & Dad</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"My 17-year old son has been training since age 11. His confidence as a young man has grown as much, if not more, than his karate skills. He has a great respect for his instructors, other students, and the sport itself. More than that, it has taught him self-respect. U.S. Karate has helped him cope with teen issues just by being there. It has provided the physical outlet sometimes needed to work through troublesome periods. I know my son also feels a kinship with his fellow students that gives him the emotional support as well. I feel comfortable sending my son to U.S. Karate, knowing the focus has always been to improve his skills - not just those of the class as a whole." </I></div> <div> <B>Diane Andersen </B></div> <div> <B> - Jared's Mom</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"Every parent wants their child to be more aware of their surroundings and be able to defend / remove themselves from dangerous situations. I have found that Sifu Dean Goldade's classes for children provide that, and so much more. In just a few months of 30-minute training sessions with Sifu Goldade and his talented, patient, and gentle team of instructors, our 5-year-old son has also shown marked improvement in his focus and ability to listen attentively and follow instruction. His self-confidence, balance, and awareness have also improved tremendously.</I></div> <div> <I>Thanks!"</I></div> <div> <B> C. Cavness </B></div> <div> <B> - Arthur's mom</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"Dean Goldade has helped me and my students learn so much about real self-defense fighting. In addition to having him teach seminars here at my school in San Antonio, I have attended many of Sifu Goldade's specialized training courses. These sessions have enlightened even the most seasoned martial artists, and are taught with clarity and universal application. It's my greatest hope that others can appreciate his vast knowledge and experience." </I></div> <div> <B>Steven Kern </B></div> <div> <B> - San Antonio Kenpo Karate, Inc ( Chief Instructor )</B></div> <div> <B> - State certified Police instructor </B></div> <div> <B> - Level 4 bodyguard instructor</B></div> <div> <B>San Antonio Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"Dean's numerous years of training have given him not only a skill set that is beyond most martial artists, but also a wonderful talent to teach and develop the skills of those who participate in his classes. Dean views martial arts training as a way in which we can improve ourselves while having fun. Key factors for Dean's success is his never ending passion and love for what he is doing. In my book, Dean Goldade is a true martial arts professional."</I></div> <div> <B>Professor Brian Yoshii</B></div> <div> <B> - 8th Degree Black Belt Kajukenbo</B></div> <div> <B> - 37 years martial arts training</B></div> <div> <B>San Jose Ca.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"I am glad Dean is finally getting out there. We have trained together and shared information for over a decade. He is one of my senior representatives and is a very talented technician, but also has the ability to pass the information to his students with clear understanding... Damn glad to be on the same team.."</I></div> <div> <B>W.Hock Hochheim</B></div> <div> <B> - Black Belt Hall of Fame</B></div> <div> <B> - International Combatives instructor</B></div> <div> <B> - Founder of the Scientific Fighting Congress</B></div> <div> <B>Keller Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"I've been in the arts 30 yrs at this point and you meet what I call "karate people" for the most part. This is the individual that takes a martial art and stays in the tunnel of that art without ever looking outside the blinders. On a very rare occasion you meet what I call a "Martial Artist", a term I feel is very abused. This is the person who lives the arts and empties his or her cup whenever they have the chance to do so. Sifu Dean is one of these rare people. We've trained together for over 15 years now and he has always been this way. I could show him 10 new grappling moves and he'll make them his own by the next time I see him. I would be lucky if a student remembers one on most occasions with only one exposure. Many times we've stayed up to the wee hours watching some martial art tape or just talking the arts. He is dedicated to training and teaching the arts. He's a good man". </I></div> <div> <B>Professor John Bono</B></div> <div> <B> - 8th Degree black belt Kajukenbo Instructor</B></div> <div> <B> - Certified full instructor Jeet Kune Do</B></div> <div> <B> - Certified Chiropractic Dr.</B></div> <div> <B>San Jose Ca.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>Dean Goldade is a phenomenal martial artist.</I></div> <div> <I>Dean can do it all.

He expects his students to do the same thing, and helps them develope their own unique fighting styles by providing them with the instruction they need in order to accomplish this. Sifu Goldade effectively demonstrates the relative strengths and weaknesses of the techniques he teaches. When you learn from him you will understand the purpose behind your motions, as well as their usefullness."</I></div> <div> <B>Jacob Schrum</B></div> <div> <B> - Black Belt Instructor</B></div> <div> <B>Austin Texas</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"Dean Goldade is one of the instructors within a small circle of martial artists, that I consider selfless in his endeavor to pass on knowledge. Dean has trained with many different martial practitioners to further enhance the knowledge of his students. He keeps his ego in check, but is willing to scrap. All those that are fortunate enough to be trained by, or associated with Sifu Goldade have had new doors opened that will inspire their training for life..."</I></div> <div> <B>Jeff Hill</B></div> <div> <B> - 30 years martial arts training</B></div> <div> <B> - Multiple black belt holder</B></div> <div> <B> - Game Warden for the State of Texas</B></div> <div> <B>Cedar Park Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"From the first day we met I thought - here is a guy with true warrior spirit. Dean gives martial artists a good name. Some of the toughest, smartest and most open minded training I have come across. It has been over 10 years now, and I look forward to many more years of quality training and friendship".</I><I> </I></div> <div> <B>Daniel Lewis</B></div> <div> <I> </I><B>- Full Instructor Jeet Kune Do, Filipino Martial Arts</B></div> <div> <B> - Kajukenbo Black Belt Instructor</B></div> <div> <B>Austin Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"I have known Dean Goldade for 12 years. I trained under him for 6 months. Kajukenbo is a very real world effective martial art in it's own right. Dean Goldade appreciates and teaches that art in it's entirety as well as distilling Kajukenbo and many other knife, stick and hand to hand combative techniques down to the ones that provide the most effective real world application. It's the best training you can get for any price; much less the best bang for the buck !"</I></div> <div> <B>Shawn Macleod</B></div> <div> <B> - Engineer / Martial arts student</B></div> <div> <B>Austin Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I>"I've trained in the martial arts for nearly 15 years, the last 5 with Sifu Dean. His emphasis on training hard, and for the reality of the world outside the Dojo, has broadened my knowledge of the martial arts as a whole.</I></div> <div> <I>His depth of knowledge in several martial arts gives him the ability to instruct students from several levels, from the most basic drills to the more complex techniques of a black belt." </I></div> <div> <B>Mack Stanford</B></div> <div> <B> - Martial Arts Student</B></div> <div> <B>Georgetown Tx.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> I have just spent 2 weeks in Georgetown TX, training with Sigung Dean Goldade</div> <div> and the members of the US Karate Systems School.
