"Their love and care for our son's development"
Full endorsement! Self defense is probably what comes to mind when you think of a karate institution but Purple Dragon Cayman Islands is so much more than that. Their love and care for our son's development is more than we imagined. So, in every way, we fully endorse this family of disciplined, humble and spiritually grounded team led by Shihan Floyd. Our son looks forward to meeting his friends there at every opportunity. His mental strength, physical fitness and especially his immediate response to instructions are some of the things that we are most grateful for. Thank you Purple Dragon Cayman.
