| “Darren is a reliable instructor. He has detailed knowledge of Isshin-ryu karate yet he has never forgotten to always be a student. He is creative and uses innovative ideals that keep the class interesting. He is willing to spend extra time providing remediation on areas I sometimes do not understand. His depth of life experiences seasoned with a little humor makes him one of the best instructors that I have ever had the privilege to be taught by.”

He remains open to change and improvement himself, and shares innovative and effective strategies with those working with him. He is effective with a wide range of age groups, men and women, and adapts his instruction to the level most understandable by those he is leading."

My sons and I have studied under Sensei Darren Gilbert. I highly recommend his dojo to anyone, any age that may be interested in martial arts.
