Not Your Average Martial Arts Studio

We were excited to learn all about Traditional Karate And Aikido and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with Sensei Stan Smith.

Traditional Karate And Aikido has been around for 25 years and is a Christian-based martial arts school. They put a lot of faith in God, but also know that they have to put in the work. They instill good character and discipline into their students as a means of giving them a better life.

“We take out the violence and instill good, strong, moral character. Through discipline, success is inevitable in whatever you want to do. We work on people’s character more than the fight. We train for peace through faith, character, and discipline.”

Sensei Smith told us a bit more about what he believes sets their studio apart:

“Our prayer to Our Father God is what sets us apart. We acknowledge the traditional etiquette of martial arts, but we praise Our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Building Success Through Perseverance

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Traditional Karate And Aikido has managed to. We asked if Sensei Smith could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what he had to say:

“Perseverance! Stay out of the negative mindset because it will control you. It’s a matter of persevering through things. Through faith, you can overcome negative thinking. I started training at five and am now 60, and I know that training and being faithful is key.”


Congratulations to Traditional Karate And Aikido for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Sensei Smith for taking the time to speak with us!
