(1)

It's now 24 years later and we have continued with this same USP. Our consultants include Paul Garcia with close to 1000 active students on the east coast, Doug Bertrand with 1000 students on the west coast, Craig Haley in Florida, Steve Butts with 4 school locations as well as our President Greg Silva in Mesa Arizona. Our VP Bill Storm is an active BJJ student. We teach systems that are business

proven and martial artist approved. GREG SILVA began his martial arts training in Connecticut in 1966. While attending the University of Connecticut he taught for the Tracy Karate School in Wethersfield under Richard Griffin. Soon after graduating from UCONN's School of Business he opened his own school, Farmington Kenpo Karate, soon to become East West Karate. His schools were incredibly successful in the 70's and 80's with 6 locations and almost Greg Silva, CEO United Professionals2000 active students training. During this time he advanced his own personal martial arts training and earned his 6th degree black belt under the late Ed Parker. Following Ed Parker's passing, Mr. Silva was promoted to 7th degree by the World Wide Kenpo Karate Association under Joe Palanzo and Huk Planas. His schools were featured several times in local television for their community service and progress. HOWEVER, he wasn't satisfied. Mr. Silva soon moved to Florida and opened Coral Springs East West Karate just northwest of Fort Lauderdale. What happened here was totally amazing. Still a student of Ed Parker's, Mr. Silva felt there were certain shortcomings in the martial arts in regards to teaching children. He worked with a child psychologist, studying and learning strategies of children and made some drastic changes in the way martial arts was presented to children. He innovated "Teaching Benefits", "Universal Curriculum" and "Phase Curriculum." Students began learning faster, excelling in the physical progress, and within three years over 1300 students were training in a single facility. SCHOOL owners from all over the country were traveling to Coral Springs to see if the stories they were hearing were true! This soon lead to Mr. Silva taking a change of direction in his career and United Professionals was born. A dedicated husband, and father to two great children, Mr. Silva still actively participates in the Martial Arts as well as working with school owners on a daily basis.

What if one word could transform your entire month of classes?

This month's Black Belt Excellence theme is Purpose.

Purpose is knowing why you do what you do. When students understand why they train, they become more focused, more committed, and more willing to push through challenges. It gives direction to their martial arts journey and helps reinforce the life skills parents want for their children.

That is exactly what the Black Belt Excellence Program is designed to help you teach.

Every month, members receive a complete character development system with ready-to-use class outlines, student newsletters, weekly Mat Chats, coloring sheets, posters, and social media content. Everything is built around one life skill so your entire team is teaching the same message with consistency and confidence.

Instead of spending hours creating lesson plans and character education materials, you can focus on what matters most, teaching great classes and building stronger students.

When your instructors teach with purpose, your students train with purpose. Parents notice the difference, students stay engaged, and your school develops a culture that goes beyond martial arts.

If you are looking for a simple, proven way to strengthen your character education program while saving time each month, the Black Belt Excellence Program is ready to help.

Send us a message to learn more about how Black Belt Excellence can help your school create a lasting impact both on and off the mat.
