About Us

  Cantrelle's Martial arts began as a family-owned Kenpo Karate Studio.  Husband & Wife team of a Military Veteran and a former Silicon Valley Executive. We have been operating since January 2007 teaching Kenpo Karate to our local community. For nearly 11 years, we operated as FKKA#1 San Jose.  Cantrelle's Martial arts was born June 2017 to serve the community we live in with our unique brand of Kenpo Karate and Self Defense. Our talented staff of Black Belt Instructors provide self-defense training to men and women of various ages.

  The studio was founded by Professor Dave Cantrelle (8th Degree Black Belt). He offers more than 50 years of martial arts experience that began in 1970 with his first instructor Robert Wilson (Judo & Kendo), and later with the FKKA & Sifu Roland Gonzalez (Kenpo Karate). These many years of experience allows us to bring a unique and extremely effective perspective in self-defense to our students.

  Mrs. Becky Cantrelle (5th Degree Black Belt) co-founded and supported the dojo from the very beginning. She is a dedicated partner, excellent instructor, and talented martial artist. We pride ourselves in bringing quality martial arts and a sense of community to all of our members. With us, you are not just a student, you are family.

Cantrelle's Martial Arts will continue on being supported and taught by our talented Black Belt Instructors that have offered many years of their time to bond with the community and to continue our martial arts legacy.  

  Cantrelle's Martial Arts provides one free introductory class at no cost or obligation to the general public. The free class is geared toward introducing people to our Academy, and Kenpo Karate.
