Uche "Uche" O.'s Profile

I've trained in martial arts since I've been a child.  I've studied Rishin-ryu, Shotokan, Kenkokan, Tae Kwon Do, Aikido, Jujutsu and more.  American Kenpo is by far my favorite.  I studied this style in Dallas for three years, achieving brown belt before moving for work purposes.  I was excited to find another such school nearby now that I live in Colorado.  I've not been disappointed at all, and in fact, I can't recommend Colorado Kenpo Karate highly enough.  The head instructor Mr. Sandy Stapp has a great understanding of the individual needs of each student, and he unfailingly puts students first.  He is personally involved in all the classes, including kids' classes.  It is not the sort of over-commercialized operation that's become too common nowadays.  The school does not push long contracts and extra purchases.  The focus is completely on school spirit and improvement of students.  My fellow students are a wonderful group with diverse personalities and levels of prior martial arts experience.  The atmosphere is always friendly and enjoyable, yet focused on learning, training and fitness.  My eight year old son also joined the school, and it's excellent to watch Mr. Stapp's careful attention to the progress of the kids.  American Kenpo is an excellent martial arts style for the serious practitioner as well those more focused on fitness and practical self-defense, and you'd be hard pressed to find a better representation of American Kenpo than at Colorado Kenpo Karate.

Note: I am not commercially affiliated with Mr. Stapp or his school in any way except as a satisfied student.
