Welcome to the ABOUT page of our website. I'm Curtis Jordan, and I would like to THANK YOU for taking the time to learn more about us. You are ABSOLUTELY doing the RIGHT THING by going to the internet in order to educate yourself as to who you should choose for your Martial Arts related goals and desires.
Allow me to simplify the process for you if I may.
And before I do, I would like to let you know that it's not always easy or "comfortable"...talking about yourself !
However, one of the MANY benefits associated with Martial Arts related training, is the quiet,controlled confidence you will possess.
With this in mind...let me try to explain myself in the following manner.
I am VERY grateful for the good fortunes I've had in my nearly 30 year career.
I've been fortunate enough to be the recipient of many distinguished awards and honors.
Here are just a few
WORLD Middle Weight Champion
WORLD Martial Arts Hall Of Fame
Competitor Of The Year
INSTRUCTOR Of The year
GOLD MEDALIST
I obviously know a thing or two about Martial Arts.
I'm also a BUSINESSMAN.
I own and operate a few businesses and I KNOW how important it is to RELATE to my clients.
I KNOW what YOU need to know...and what you need to "feel" when making a decision which involves spending your time and your hard earned money.
So...let me get right to the point.
There are MANY places in the area that advertise similar training and programs.
There are some good ones....and there are some bad ones.
I simply ask that you look at my background...and allow my reputation to be the the nucleus of your decision making process.
When making the decision to learn at East Coast Karate Academy, you are making a decision to LEARN at a HUGE facility where the emphasis is on EXCELLENCE and PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT !
I personally select all the instructors who assist me. I choose my instructors not only for their martial arts skill, but also for their ability to effectively communicate their knowledge. Through a special program of advanced training, they are continuously upgrading their skills. It is no surprise that the East Coast Karate Academy's instructors are ranked among the FINEST in the United States.
This should be STRONGLY considered when choosing the PROPER facility !
East Coast Karate Academy was founded on the principles of teaching excellence, personal attention and tradition. We provide you with the most complete and effective methods to help you reach your full potential.
If you've been to "other" martial arts facilities...you will INSTANTLY notice a MAJOR difference in our "approach" and our skill level.
When you compare the East Coast Karate Academy to any other school you will quickly find that we are miles ahead in the field! As professional martial arts instructors, we feel that it is our duty not only to help our students develop self defense skills, but also provide a complete program of personal development to enhance the student's quality of life. At the East Coast Karate Academy, our carefully structured programs go a lot further than just kicking and punching.
It's something you really must experience FIRST HAND !
Although our techniques are based upon centuries old tradition and knowledge, our application of that knowledge sets the East Coast Karate Academy apart from the other schools. We realize that each student possesses different physical abilities. Size and strength varies with each individual. Once you have acquired a strong foundation in the basics, our program will enhance your personal physical capabilities and maximize your self-defense skills. You will understand exactly what it takes, mentally and physically, to defend yourself or loved ones should the need ever arise.
And...I want to make sure that you understand that we ARE...SO MUCH more than just punching and kicking ! Yes....we CAN and WILL TEACH you...regardless of age, strength or gender....how to EFFECTIVELY defend yourself. But there are SO many other programs offered here at East Coast Karate Academy.
Whichever program you choose....feel COMPLETELY CONFIDENT that you will be involved with a facility that is second to none in this area. We are TRIED and PROVEN ! Our students/clients LOVE us ...and refer their friends and family on a DAILY BASIS !With my 30 years of being in this profession, along with the reputation that precedes me...I can assure you that my HEART and SOUL is in this business...and... you have my solemn promise that my staff and me will do EVERYTHING possible to make your experience with us...be one of FULFILLMENT and personal ENRICHMENT !
MY name and reputation is attached to this business...and this is something I don't take lightly.
