Sensei H.

Martial arts has been a life passion of Hecti’s since they were six years old. Their goal as a teacher is to create an environment where every student feels welcome and receives instruction that matches each person’s unique learning style. They also wish to honor these art forms by teaching in a culturally aware manner that avoids appropriation and elevates the history of these forms. Hecti views the teacher-student relationship as one of mutual respect, joy, and growth.
