“I am so impressed with the program your group put on for the self-defense class. I really got a lot out of it and feel privileged to know what I now know. I think it is so wonderful what you offered this for the community. What a fantastic opportunity!“

“To the Team at Poway Martial Arts, Although we hope to never have to beat the crap out of anyone, we are glad we have the skills to do it and the bruises to prove it! Thanks from the ladies of the Campbell family.”

“I attended your free self-defense class with a bunch of friends this past Saturday. Thank you so much for volunteering your time! I really appreciate your efforts for me and all of the other people who you’ve given extra tools to defend themselves! You are all amazing.”

“As a busy professional with a family, I need a gym that provides a great and efficient workout with a friendly staff. Mr. B, with his years of experience, has put together the perfect gym and staff for those who want to get in shape, learn how defend oneself, and have a great time doing it. People of all ages and fitness goals should check this place out.”

“Choosing Poway Kenpo Karate was the best thing we ever did for our 7 year old son. He was only 5 when we started and he has advanced to blue belt with lots of practice and awesome teaching. The facility, the teaching programs, and the level of teaching are spectacular. You can tell the Barkers care about each and every student – we are proud to be a part of the Poway Kenpo Karate family.”

“My daughter Sarah & I attended your free women’s self-defense class this last Saturday and we just really wanted to thank you and your staff for this amazing service you are giving to the women in San Diego! Wow! We really learned a lot and left empowered and invigorated! We’ve let all our closest friends know about these classes you are offering! May God Bless You abundantly as you so thoughtfully share your knowledge!“

“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Your free self-defense class for women, which I attended with my daughter, was beyond my expectations; very hands on & physical & we learned a lot. Wanted to thank you and your staff for volunteering your time to help women for such a good cause.”

“As a teacher of 25 years’ experience I would like to highly recommend Barry Barker as an outstanding teacher. He is very knowledgeable and loves to teach and work with groups and individuals.”
