About Our Founder

Master John S. Powell is a 7th-degree black belt in Shotokan Karate and a respected leader in the martial arts community. He opened his dojo in 1997 and has spent more than two decades training youth and adults in discipline, confidence, and combat sports excellence.


Master Powell began his martial arts journey in 1993 under the guidance of the late Shidoshi Anthony E. Dew Jr. After earning his black belt, he dedicated himself to teaching and developing fighters across multiple disciplines including Karate, Boxing, MMA, and Bare-Knuckle competition.

His contributions to martial arts have been recognized with inductions into the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame, the World Martial Arts Hall of Fame, and the Old & New Warrior Hall of Fame.


Master Powell is also the founder of Vicious Promotions LLC, where he promotes and hosts USA Boxing events. His school has produced numerous professional and amateur competitors in MMA, boxing, and combat sports.



At the heart of everything he does is a commitment to giving young people a positive, structured path — whether their goal is competition, self-defense, or simply getting in great shape.
