A Black Belt is an international sign of personal excellence. At The Self-Defense Institute, a Black Belt is more than something that you wear and more than something that you earn. It is who you become. Achieving a Black Belt at The Self-Defense Institute, you become a person with outstanding martial arts skills AND life skills, i.e.,
self-control, focus, patience, responsibility/compassion,
self-respect, integrity, and enthusiasm for the learning process.
Congratulations again to the new Jr. Black Belt students for their milestone achievement!!
