First we look over paperwork we have them fill out letting us know something about their health history and/or their motivation and goals. Then we go over our process for achieving their success and rules of the studio so that we will all be on the same page. Finally, we show them basic postures and techniqes depending on the program in which they are participating. When possible, we will show them an advanced application of those techniques or an example of what will come further down the road.
We have worked with students as young as 4 years of age and as old as in their 70's. We have worked with stay-at-home moms, elementary school students, highschool students, college students, bankers, law enforcement officers, construction workers, clergy, elementary school teachers, college professors, manufacturing plant workers, professional office workers, doctors, lawyers, paralegals, etc. We love working with families. We have also worked with special needs students. This can be challenging, but so very rewarding when you see them light up with delight at a new accomplishment!
Credentials and reviews are a part of the picture and, of course have their place. However, I would recommend that they should either observe, or better yet, try a class/session or two to see if they are comfortable with the instructor and her/his style and methods of teaching.

My 5 year old son had been displaying a low ability to concentrate and focus his attention on many things for some time now. His energy level is through the roof and while he is an awesome kid keeping him still or focused has been a real problem. I have been a friend of Billee's and also a student at LifeForce for about three and a half years and my son has been begging me to teach him karate. Even though I thought he would never be still enough to pay attention, much to my surprise after about 1 month of weekly lessons he has shown a vast improvement in his ability to focus on things and has become increasingly more calm and a nicer person to his other 4 siblings. Most important of all is that as Christian parents we have for the first time seen this child tune in to God and has received a real touch in his heart all because we stuck to the LifeForce program of praying intimately with him after each karate lesson because while we've prayed before, it was directly after a lesson where we witnessed him receive from the Lord. I recommend LifeForce Karate to anyone who has a heart for healthier mind, body, and spirit.
My wife started kickboxing with Lifeforce before I did and at first I was skeptical about what kickboxing was all about. Honestly I thought it was going to be more like aerobics. Was I ever wrong! I was hooked from the first day I started! To this day I'm addicted to kickboxing and look forward to every class. My energy level has been jump-started and I love the casual atmosphere the staff of Lifeforce create. Everyone is always friendly! I highly recommend LifeForce Karate and Self-Defense!
By the time Bob was a year old, we knew we had what psychologists call a 'strong-willed' child, one who would have his way no matter what... When Bob came to us in second grade and told us his school was offering karate lessons, we thought that would be the very last thing Bob needed! However, after meeting with the instructor, we decided to give Bob a chance just to see if this idea of 'karate discipline' really made a difference. Bob is now in sixth grade and you could not ask for a more loving and respectful young man. We owe a great deal to Billee Purvis and the entire LifeForce staff for what they have taught Bob over the last four years. We have watched as Billee not only taught Bob and others like him about self-defense, but he has also taught Bob about the love of God and how that love flows through us all, that each of us is morally obligated for our own actions... ...Billee and the Lifeforce staff have saved us years of fighting and frustration with Bob. They have taught Bob to focus his strong will and determination on things that are important. That is why we whole-heartedly support Billee, Sugarr and [staff], and praise their hard work and dedication.
The best in Professionalism and Discipline to have your kids taught by the best instructors. Instructors and Staff are the best.
They Shape Minds, Character And Body!!!!
Our daughter loves coming to Life Force Karate. She is learning to increase her self control, discipline and life skills. We are impressed with what she has learned in a brief amount of time. Life Force provides a Professional, Supportive and Loving environment for children and families!
The company meeting Self Defense provided at Lifeforce Karate & Self-Defense was so much fun and hands-on informative. I came home and taught what I learned to a friend and hope to keep sharing these new skills to keep them fresh. I would recommend booking them for corporate events or family/friend gatherings. The instructors are very knowledgeable and interactive, and the space was accommodating for our group of 15 (with room to spare).
