Peterson Branch

Senior Head Instructor Jeremiah Kemnitz has been training in the martial arts for the last twenty-one years under the leadership of Professor Jesse Manegdeg. Instructor Kemnitz has also been a class instructor from the year 2003 to the present at the East Central Branch.

He grew grown up under the instruction of Universal and knows Universal to be as close to family as his own blood. Having grown up with a mild seizure disorder that was the root of many other learning disabilities and having many trials in school, Instructor Kemnitz had many voices speaking into his life but the most prominent were his mother, father and Professor. His father's voice, "Love your family and work hard." His mother's voice, "You can do anything you want, it's your life to live." His Professor, "Practice hard and never give up." Instructor Kemnitz truly believes that their wisdom could enhance anyone's life if they put their mind and heart into it.
