About 7 years ago I was in terrible shape. I was operated on for a tumor in my head the size of a lemon. I had a high B/Pressure (we're talking stoke level). My kidneys were shutting down. I had high Cholestorol and I was 30lbs. over weight. The doctors had me on all sorts of medications. I had never taken anything more than Asprin before then. Shortly after my surgery Our kids received a pass for a free month of Karate classes, they wanted to check it out so we took them to a small place on West avenue to see what it was all about. There we met Master Talamantez. Wow! He is intense but, something seemed right. We ended up signing the kids up for classes (free) and it was all over from there. The Kids loved it and Master Talamantez suggested that My wife and I join them. With in two weeks we had signed up the whole family for a 36 month program. Yeah it was a little more than we should have spent at the time but you know, Our oldest daughter started doing better in school and our youngest became more confident. She was allways the quite one. My wife and I got in better physical shape and after about 6 months I was able to get off all of my medications, with doctor approval. Man, what ride it's been. I worry like most parents should, about the safety of my Girls, but you know I feel that they can now make right choices and defend themselves if they have to. Thanks to Master T, Mr. A. Talamantez, and Mr. Talamantez Jr. Mr. Perez, and all the other instructors we are all high ranks now and we're a really tight knit family. A family that kicks together stays together you know. Parents you must look at the big picture and to the future of your family. Thank you Talamantez Karate for a life changing experience.
