  • Is Success Martial Arts right for a complete beginner?

    Absolutely. Most of our students start with zero martial arts experience. Your first class is completely free, giving you the opportunity to meet our instructors, experience a class, and ask questions with no pressure and no obligation.

  • What age can my child start?

    We welcome students in our Kids Tae Kwon Do programs starting at a young age. Our classes are designed to help children develop focus, coordination, confidence, and respect in a fun, structured environment. We also offer programs for teens and adults of all ages.

  • Is martial arts good for kids who struggle with focus or confidence?

    Yes. Our structured classes, positive coaching, and clear progression system help students develop better focus, self-discipline, and confidence over time. Many parents tell us they see improvements both at home and at school after their child begins training.

  • What programs are available at Success Martial Arts?

    We offer Kids Tae Kwon Do, Adult Tae Kwon Do, Fitness Classes, Self-Defense Training, and Birthday Parties. Programs are available for students of various ages, experience levels, and goals.

  • Do you offer a free trial?

    Yes. We offer a FREE Trial Class for new students. This gives you the opportunity to meet our instructors, experience our teaching style, tour the facility, and see if our programs are the right fit before making any commitment.

  • What are your class hours?

    Our academy is open Monday through Friday from 12pm-8pm and Saturday from 9am-11am. We are closed on Sundays. Class schedules vary by program, so please contact us for specific class times.

  • Do I have to spar or have physical contact with other students?

    No. Safety and student comfort are always priorities. Students are never forced into activities they are not ready for, and instructors ensure training progresses at an appropriate pace for each individual.

  • Are your instructors certified and experienced?

    Yes. Our academy is led by Grand Master Josh Henkel, a 7th Degree Black Belt with decades of teaching experience, along with Master Nancy Henkel and a highly trained instructional team. All instructors are dedicated to providing a safe, professional, and positive learning environment.

  • Can parents watch classes at Success Martial Arts?

    Absolutely. Parents are welcome to observe their child's classes and see their progress firsthand. We believe martial arts works best when families are involved, and many parents enjoy watching their children build confidence, discipline, and new skills week after week.

Root-cause healing that restores the body through nervous system regulation, detox pathways, and metabolism. Not symptom-chasing. Not another bandaid.

Hi, I'm Dr. Kourtney

Three pillars of real,

lasting results

Energy & Fatigue Recovery

Nervous system and detox support that addresses why your body is stuck in survival mode — not just masking exhaustion with caffeine and supplements.

01

Metabolism & Weight Loss Resistance

If you're eating right and exercising but nothing moves, there's a deeper reason. We find it — and fix it — using functional labs and a personalized protocol.

02

Hormone Balance

Hormone issues are signals of something deeper — drainage, nervous system dysregulation, or metabolic burden. I help you address the root, not just the numbers.

03

MY APPROACH

Why clients get results when nothing else worked

I combine 20+ years as a pharmacist with a root-cause, whole-body approach — bridging conventional medicine with the deeper healing most practitioners never address.

01

Regulate before you detox

Nervous system and drainage are the non-negotiable foundation. Skip this step and nothing else sticks.

02

Healing is low and slow

Real detox doesn't happen overnight. Sustainable results come from doing it right — at the pace your body can actually handle.

03

Symptoms are signals, not diagnoses

Hormone imbalances, weight gain, fatigue — your body is communicating. We listen, then address what they're pointing to.

"I get it, because I've been there — and I know exactly where conventional medicine stops and real healing begins."

Pharmacist-level fluency in your labs, medications, and diagnostics

Functional medicine lens that asks why , not just what

Whole-body protocols — nervous system, detox, and metabolism together

1:1 consultations using the Root Cause Method, not cookie-cutter plans

Internationally accredited certification teaching practitioners the same method
