     I was born in Detroit, Michigan in 1957. I have lived in Peoria, Arizona since 1987. I became interested in martial arts four years ago when my son started to take lessons at Yume Dojo under Sensei Lou Klaff. A year latter I started taking lessons too. It started out to just learn some self-defense but quickly grew into much more than that. I have been training for three years and look forward to each training day to learn something new. Martial Arts have been a great experience for me and look forward to many more years of training. I currently train at Yume dojo under Sensei Lou Klaff Sensei Scotty Klaff and Sensei Stacy Klaff.

The martial arts that I train in are as follows:
- Yume-Ha Budo:
- Goshin Budo Jujitsu
- San Jitsu Ryu
- Sanuces Ryu Jujitsu
- Sambo and Torite Ryu

     I have also trained with Professor Eugene Sedeno in Shaolin Kempo, Hanshi Bruce Juchnik in Kosho Ryu Kempo, and in Lua with Olohe Sol Kaihewalu. I look forward to adding to this list of great Martial Artists.
