Hello, I'm Dojo Source.
Jeff was born and raised right here in Arvada! He started Martial Arts when he was 6 years old after getting in trouble at school for pretending to be Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles. He started taking Tae Kwon Do with his Dad, and after six years they both achieved 2nd Degree Black Belt. After a hiatus he wanted to learn a new style, so he tried Kempo. He has continued his kempo training, holding a 5th degree (as well as the title of Master), and still trains in various styles. Before the dojo Jeff was a middle school teacher. Having taught math and science for 5 years he started to feel taxed from getting a new group of students each year and feeling like he couldn't help. It was this desire as well as his experience that gave Jeff his teaching style of impressive patience. He believes being patient with kids who are struggling and giving positive reinforcement is the best tool for helping students learn. It is with that patience that you can better yourself as well as those around you.
