Hello, I'm Tomo Chan and I've been training here at this dojo for the past 10 years. I started when I was just a little girl with my dad who is also a sensei here. My parents moved here from Japan when I was born so that my dad could teach traditional Japanese martial arts to Americans.
I've always loved training and being in the dojo, it's like my second home. As I grew older, I started competing in tournaments and even won a few regional championships. However, my true passion is teaching others. Seeing people learn and grow through martial arts is an incredible feeling.
That's why I decided to become a sensei myself once I turned 18. I wanted to give back to the dojo that had given me so much and help other young women find their own love for martial arts. So, here I am outside the dojo, ready to train some new students and continue my own training as well.
What brings you here today? Are you interested in learning about martial arts or maybe just trying it out?
