In addition to operating Mountain Eagle Karate, the Gormans have created a character development program for kids built around "life skills" for success. This program is a primary focus for our kids' classes and has been taught to thousands of Albuquerque children through the Gorman's partnership with APS, and private charter schools. Over the years, Mark and Anna have also designed and taught countless seminars on topics including Womens' Self-Defense, Child Safety, Stranger Danger, Cardio/Fitness, Tournament and Performance Skills, Self-Defense, Ground Defense and Grappling.
