Jeremy is a husband, father, professional, writer, dog person, and continuing student of the Art. Those parts of his life matter in the way he teaches...seriously, personally, and without pretending that a rank replaces curiosity or continued learning.

Married to the same Amazing Woman since 1993.

Two grown sons we're very proud of...

We have had Goldendoodles since 2004...Currently 2...Lori-Loo & Zwei

TEACHING THE ART

“I find absolute fulfillment in helping students realize the benefits of Kenpo. It's especially meaningful when a student and instructor discover something within the Art that neither had previously understood in quite the same way.”

Jeremy's role is to teach the system faithfully, help students understand why it works, and make room for each person to develop capability through their own body and circumstances. Students are not supporting characters in an instructor's story. Their questions and discoveries contribute to the life of the school.

The occasions where we can train with others within our lineage are thrilling. They allow for such a camaraderie and varying perspectives on the Art that really benefit everyone.
