I have known Sensei Paul Keller for nearly 15 years, and have found him to be the best instructor I""ve ever had. I am currently studying qi gong with him, and that has been so healing after a year of dealing with cancer. This is where the Internal Arts such as meditation and qi gong play a huge part in healing. Once again I feel a whole, spiritual person who is always in the moment. One learns mindfulness from all of the martial and internal arts.
My son, daughter and husband all studied Okinawan Karate with Sensei Keller beginning 15 years ago, and they have their black belts repectively: 3rd degree black belt with 2nd degree in weapons; 2nd degree black belt; and first degree black belt. Recently my son's life was threatened on a French train, and he was able to put the attackers on the ground as well as take a knife away from the one who tried to use it. Without his excellent training in karate and fast reflexes, he would have not succeeded in capturing his assailants.
Our family has learned so much from Sensei Keller, not just ""karate lessons"", but also discipline, true compassion for others, and a spirituality which includes
mindfulness. For this we are very grateful.
