This is what our students both in the Kenpo Karitsu clubs and in the schools thought of us...
Taken from our guest book. NOW YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE TO KEEP THIS GOING, AND KENPO 5.0 IS THE PLACE TO BE RIGHT NOW !

Adelaide, you're very lucky! I was a student of Mr Gartland back in the UK and can say without doubt that you're all in for a treat. The UKs loss is Australia's gain, good luck to all of you on this exciting new adventure.

We can't believe it's all over! A very sad end to a fantastic club. We all, as a family, want to thank you for EVERYTHING you have done (right back to Kenpo days) for Kallum. We wish you luck and success in Oz and hope you'll be as successful over there as you have been here. Keep in touch. Goodbye to a very special couple.

A nice clear website which explains the component arts in an easy to understand way. I practiced Kenpo and Judo myself in the eighties. It is nice to see someone forward thinking in their approach to the arts in an open and friendly manner. Best wishes.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the way you have organised and run the new clubs this year, i cannot even begin to understand how much of your time it must take up including the website. Karitsu has made a bid difference in the short period i have been training, discipline, fitness and confidence have all improved dramtically in 6 months.
Once again thank you and I would happily recommend Karitsu to anybody.
Cheers guys, Leigh
