Student Testimonial from Meaghan Brennan| Faustini's Institute of Martial Arts and Fitness

What Our Students Say

Meaghan Brennan

I have taken karate at Faustini's Institute for seven years. Over the course of those years, I have matured as a martial artist as well as a person. Of course I now know self-defense moves, waza and kumite techniques, but I have also developed skills that are relevant to my entire life. My experiences at Faustini's Institute have benefited me outside of the dojo and will continue to throughout my entire life. Taking karate has taught me a lot about myself and taught me that I can achieve whatever I put my mind to. It has caused me to push myself to the limit and be determined in all that I do. I come away from this experience with not only the ability to defend myself, but also the confidence and self-respect to find success in every aspect of my life.

I know that next year when I go to college, I will always have karate in the unfortunate event that I may ever need to defend myself. These seven years have paid off because now I have the ability to defend myself, the self-confidence to believe in myself, and the determination to always strive for the best. I also come away with some great friends that I have met here and will always have. I would like to thank Sensei Faustini and the other Senseis for there continued support and encouragement over the years and also thank my parents for never letting me give up and always pushing me to achieve the very best.
