Dennis Alvey
Dennis Alvey has been studying the martial arts since 1984. In the early years of training, his sole purpose of participating in the arts was to become a better individual. Mr. Alvey sought to increase his self-confidence, improve focus and concentration, coupled with a desire to posses elevated self-discipline. He achieved these goals many years ago.
Currently, as an expert level internationally certified instructor, Mr. Alvey has set on a new path in martial arts. His focus has now shifted to providing superior quality instruction to his students with the intent of guiding them to achieve the same benefits that he is so grateful for attaining.
In Chon-ji's classes, the needs and differences of the individual are always taken into consideration. We hope to hear from you soon, please don't hesitate to contact us to receive a free introductory lesson.
