I've been studying Goju Ryu Karate and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu here for about two years now. Sensei John Polanco keeps the Goju Ryu "pure" by teaching it the way the masters of old did. You won't find fancy tornado kicks or backflips here, but you will find an ancient combat system that's still relevant today. Goju Ryu has helped get me in shape and has helped alleviate a lot of pain in my body by strengthening my muscles.
The Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is also a great program. Professor Marcelo Kobayashi brings a lot of experience to the table. He's a former MMA fighter from Japan and he's also proficient

I have trained with Sensei John Polanco at KI Salem for nearly 10 years. In that time I have seen the dojo grow from a small group of students in a basement to the fantastic program that stands today. Whether you are looking for a program for your child or you are looking to pursue martial arts for yourself, Sensei Johnny and the entire KI Salem family provide a safe, family-friendly environment. There are separate classes for children and adults, along with different classes in karate, jiu jitsu, and kickboxing. Sensei Johnny has been practicing martial arts for over 25 years; his ability and

I have been training at K I Salem since this past year, and I don't think it can get any better than this. Both Sensei John and Sensei Jordyn teach not only the movements but also the art and strength behind each block, punch, and kick. Don't be fooled when you see punching bags and a boxing ring- they also have Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, MMA, kickboxing, and after-school programs.
Another thing that I really appreciate is the dedication of both senseis to karate- they will use any and all means necessary to ensure discipline and form. They teach Karate not as a martial art, but as an art, which is
