I think Dr. Kenneth Cooper said it best when he said "Fitness is a journey not a destination. It must be continued for the rest of your life". Hi, my name is Julie and I began my journey to fitness 10 months ago this month, when I finally decided to stop driving by Villari's dojo and to go inside. It was the best decision I've ever made in regards to fitness. I feel and look better than I have in fifteen years! And if that's not enough, I feel more confident every week that I can defend myself if put in a harmful situation. Karate is an addiction for me; I crave it and look forward to the two days a week that I go. I no longer dread Mondays because I look forward to the Monday night class. Take the karate two week challenge with master Cheryl Roy, you won't regret it and will undoubtedly be thanking her for the rest of your life! I can't say enough about Master Cheryl Roy and Villari's (because there aren't enough lines on this sheet of paper) Please, I urge you...no I challenge you to challenge yourself and come find out what it feels like to be in your best physical shape possible, to look and feel better than you have in a very long time, to be able to protect and defend yourself and to have a great time doing it! Villari's is a very fun friendly atmosphere! One last piece of motivation; My mother is 55 years old and decided to take the journey to fitness with me. We are now purple belts, soon to be blue belts and are both loving it. Our advice to you "Just do it". Karate is wonderful for the mind, body and soul!!

Karate is my three hours a week of physical and mental release! I am stronger mentally and physically thanks to Master Cheryl. She is a unique person, very capable of making anyone feel more in control of themselves and their lives! I owe my sanity to karate and Master Cheryl.
