Scott Kertes
"If trophies and awards and the color of your belt are important to you there are a thousand schools out there waiting to take your money. If you are interested in learning the Science of Self Defense you need to stop and realize there is NO WHERE ANYWHERE that teaches it...except here. Chief Grandmaster Willing and Kyoshi Talia have created a system that is based on the FACTS of Physics. The FACTS of human movement and human behavior. It is the real deal. Just about anyone can teach you what to do, and how to do it. No one encourages you to understand why. It's an integral part of American Nihon Jiu-Jitsu and it's a philosophy that you can apply to all areas of your life. There are FACTS that are constant in all things... gravity, momentum, acceleration, timing, shock, balance, centrifugal and centripetal force.... These are the building blocks of TRUE self defense because they are FACTS. They apply to the study of the opponent just as much, if not more, than the study of the defense to be used. Unfortunately Google will only allow me to go as high as 5 stars, but that is not enough. Come on down to the school and check-it out for yourself! These guys teach with passion.... with excitement.... and with integrity!"
