Tim’s Karate methods focus on the student and not the art; encompasses the entire child; mind, body, spirit. Tim’s mission is to teach Curated Life Skills disguised as Martial Arts, and, to use his experience growing up and having to navigate being bullied, to relate to other children experiencing the same situations as he did.

Tim is a 6th Degree Black Belt, and State AAU Tae Kwon Do Gold Medalist in Sparring; Earned 6th Degree Black Belt in 2021; Child Development Certification through SKILLZ Worldwide; Opened Kato Karate www.katokaratemn.com and quickly became the highest rated karate school for kids in Mankato MN.
