For over 20 years, hundreds of students and adults in Phoenixville and the surrounding communities have benefited from Satori Dojo, not only from the physical activity normally associated with martial arts training, but also from the sense of community we provide for our students, and the tremendous personal growth in such areas as self-control, determination, modesty, and a having a non-defeatest attitude. Beginning with our youngest students (age 5), we teach social skills, such as the importance of being patient, friendly, courteous, and compassionate. We specifically teach how to avoid conflict, and how to verbally de-escalate a potential confrontation, important skills for people of all ages. Our Code of Ethics, modeled by each of our instructors, states that “Cuong Nhu students should strive to improve themselves in order to serve the people, and to spread and develop these beliefs within the younger generation so that they, too, will be morally and physically fit.”
