OUR SCHOOL is not big and fancy.  It is well equipped, clean, and we think it shows our pride in our art and in ourselves.  We have a small outside training area, a dressing room, a large bathroom, and a walk in equipment locker.   To us, this is heaven.

We are located at 114 15th Ave South in Nampa, ID, We are in the alley just behind the American Legion Hall located at 1502 2nd St. South, about 50 feet north.  Our building is green metal with red trim, and has a small sign on the door.  The pictures below are of our old school, and will be updated soon!

 

Our instructors:

Below is a picture of our instructors.  They just finished a particularly difficult session, and are looking rumpled and kind of dorky (go figure).  From left to right are Joanne Morgan, Todd Morgan, Dan Deutsche, Brad Huttash and Tony Ober.  Missing from this picture is Brett Huttash and Lashelle Niefhoff.

 

Dan Deutsche
Dan has been training for many years, and has achieved his Second Level Black certification (Advanced Instructor).  His nickname is Captain Hook.  Tall and Lanky, he is very deceptive when he fights, and his trademark is high flying techniques that ACTUALLY WORK!

Joanne Morgan
Joanne is a First Level Black (Full Instructor) . Her nickname is "The Badger," as in "I wouldn't want to hug one..."  Sweet and genteel, she is everything but when she is doing self defense or ground fighting. 

Lashelle Niehoff
Lashelle is currently serving in our nation's armed forces, and is a First Level Brown Apprentice Instructor.  Nicknamed "Mini-me," Lashelle's specialty is everything.  She is a total jock.  She can fight, grapple, do forms, kickbox.  She really makes the rest of us sick. Every once in a while she allows us to bask in her presence.

Brad Huttash
Brad is a First Level Black (Full Instructor).   Brad's specialty, if he has one, would be sparring.  He is slick, smooth, and composed. He kicks like a mule, and will spin your head around with his hands.  His nickname is "Precious," for reasons he alone will have to explain.

Brett Huttash
Brett is a Second Level Brown Apprentice Instructor.  He is extremely  tenacious, and voted the one most likely to chew through your neck if he's caught in a corner.  Hence, his nickname "Tenacious B."  He also wears great socks.

Tony Ober
Tony is not a TAI Kung Fu instructor, but with a couple of other black belts in other arts, he has made an excellent addition to our teaching staff.  He is learning the complete TAI Kung Fu system, and is a true warrior.

Todd Morgan
Todd is a Fourth Level Black Belt, and the head instructor for the school.  Abusive and difficult on the eyes, the only redeeming quality he seems to have is his "April-Fresh" smell and a penchance for silly nicknames.  HIs, by the way, is "Sho-nuff."  We won't explain that one either...too silly.  Below is the best view we could find

As you can see, we don't believe in taking ourselves too seriously.  We don't have to.  We have dedicated a HUGE portion of our lives to developing our skill in personal combat, and in doing so, have learned about people.  The most important thing we learned to do is to laugh at ourselves, and then keep training.
