Kokoro

The KOKORO symbol translates into heart. It can also have the meaning of mindset. For our purposes, on the mats, think of it as the mindset that allows you to properly focus and trigger yourself to achieve optimal results. Being pumped up, psyched up and ready to go, is a quality that BLACK BELTS can develop. KOKORO goes beyond this short-term hyperactive state of mind. It is the ability to bring yourself to Peak State on a consistent basis. To do this, you must learn to calm yourself, block out distractions and get rid of any negative thoughts that can sometimes clutter your mind. KOKORO
allows you to better focus yourself while aiming your ....

Habits You Train are Habits You Train

Good habits are difficult to develop, but easy to live with. Bad habits are easy to develop, but difficult to live with.

It Starts with GRATITUDE.

If you’re a parent, most likely you have said the phrase, “I just want my child to be happy”. That sounds great and noble, and it’s better than saying, “I wish my child a miserable life”. However, I’m going to challenge us all to work towards wanting a joyful life.
Although happiness and joy are similar, happiness is often tied to a specific situation or circumstance in order to experience it, where joy requires an adjustment in your perspective for it to bubble up inside. Gratitude is the key to unlocking the joy in your life.

When we have an entitled mindset and feel that we are "owed" something, many negative emotions can arise. At that ....

Victory vs. Defeat

As modern-day warriors in the martial arts, we must always fill our minds with thoughts of Victory and Success verses Defeat and Failure. Positive and proper thinking motivates us to take the actions needed to create the success and achievement we desire. Keeping ourselves thinking about victory and success will propel us to succeed. Fill your mind with fear, doubt and worry and you’ll lead yourself to failure. Bad thoughts can cause us to make bad choices, and bad things are soon to follow. Mental doom and gloom can create a black cloud over everything we do. Focus on the negatives and they will manifest and grow- leading us into a downward spiral of ....

Self-control is an essential behavior in order to achieve goals and to avoid impulses and emotions that could prove to be negative.

I showed up with all my kids, doubting any place could do what I needed. Slowly, they eroded my doubt and built up belief in its place.
The instructors are gifted, the other families have seen it, and they all want to help give you what this place gives them.
Leave your bad day at the door and it'll be gone at the end of class. It's amazing.

Jennifer Granbois

Going there for years - great instructors,! Kids are learning a number of life skills - goal setting, discipline, respect, perseverance, fitness, performing in front of a group, how to protect themselves, the list goes on. It's also very family focused. Planned activities throughout the year beyond the dojo classes.

Mary Ann Calzada

Not all martial arts programs are alike. While some may teach the martial arts creeds, this dojo lives by them. There is a sense of family, community, a unique support system and a place where everyone helps build each other up. Our daughter has been with Impact for over four years and her growth both personally, academically and skill-wise has been incredible to watch. Still now, everyday, she cannot wait to get to class. If you are looking for more than just martial arts training, this is the place! It's a family you will be proud to be a part of.

John Mason
