The Art of Life Sanctuary is a private martial art school and not a one size fits all place of learning, it is unlike any other. Why, you ask? Each member has their own unique set of strengths and weaknesses. Learn to empower yourself with confidence and control of life by exploring your limits and finding the best of your abilities.
At our sanctuary, the philosophy is to teach the martial arts as a way of living.
Everyday is a day that you can learn how to apply the five elements philosophy; Earth, Water, Fire and Wind.
The techniques that you learn in the classroom, are nothing more than a foundation for you to build upon. You start out understanding the Godai (Five Elements), physical and mental movements, and how to apply your understanding into everyday challenges.
That's our Shinobi way, welcome to the family.
Joel Dentoshi Iverson is the founder of the Art of Life Sanctuary, Way of the Shadow Wind. Mr. Iverson's path to the martial arts began in 1970. With various styles of martial art training under his belt, Jeet Kune Do, Kali, Muay Thai and several animal arts from the Ta-Merrian Institute, Bujinkan and To-Shin Do Ninjutsu organizations, he has over 50 years of experience in martial arts and Ninjutsu.
He also has 35 years of experience working in the Criminal Justice Field, where he applied and fine tuned his Shinobi techniques.
Sensei Iverson wanted to show how a person could utilize Shinobi techniques in their daily activities or professional life, both physically and mentally.
