Welcome to Dayton Quest Martial Arts
Programs
MIGHTY
NINJA
Ages 4 - 7
In this program students are given a safe place to explore and develop life and martial art skills in an engaging, fun environment.
Children have fun while gaining confidence, body awareness, and basic self-defense skills. Along the way, they develop group interaction skills, discipline, focus, and respect for others.
Classes are designed with the short attention spans of younger students in mind. We keep the energy high and the learning exciting. The classes are safe and non-competitive.
We believe in abundance of praise, encouragement, and positive reinforcement. Our young students are treated with respect, and are taught to give the same respect to others. Mighty Ninjas are taught the Student Creed:
I believe in myself, I am confident, I can accomplish my goals.
I believe in what I study, I am disciplined, I am ready to learn and advance.
I believe in my teachers, I show respect to all who help me progress.

To-Shin Do
Founded by Black Belt Hall of Fame member, Stephen K. Hayes, To-Shin Do offers Japan's oldest martial art, with today's modern teaching methods.
To-Shin Do is based on ancient warrior martial arts disciplines handed down by nine historical Japanese samurai and ninja family lineages. At the same time it is a modern approach to handling threats and confrontations in our culture today. Our art was developed as a way to increase the likelihood of peace, security, and well being not as ways to encourage violence.

Dojo Etiquette
The following suggestions will help you be more at home as a new member of Dayton Quest Martial Arts.
Arrive at the Dojo with a clean uniform, Dayton Quest Martial Arts tee shirt, appropriate footwear, and training gear. Preparation is a key to success. Be responsible for your experience.
Be aware of the significance of your presence in the Dojo every time you enter the training area. You are part of a long historic legacy of warrior protectors.
Use the time before class to warm up, stretch, and focus on the spirit of what is to come.
Address any instructor as "Sensei" (pronounced Sen-say) followed by their family name.
Pay close attention to the teacher's instructions. Concentrate on what you are learning. Train diligently to develop your skills. You are worth it!
Keep effective learning and safety in mind always. The Dojo is a place for practice, refinement, and study, not struggle and rivalry.
Remove all jewelry, and watches during training.

Testimonials
From the moment we first walked into the Quest Center, we could tell it was different. The teachers were extremely engaged and friendly, especially with the younger students. There was a sense of community amoung the staff, students, and family members, and we were impressed by how supportive and encouraging everyone was to each other. At the Quest Center, children are taught to “use their voice” and speak up for themselves, as well as ask questions. DQC has taught my reserved daughter the importance of using her voice and my energetic son the importance of focus. Most importantly, the Quest Center focuses on helping people become their best selves. Our son says, “It is the one place I can truly be myself,” and our daughter says, “It is my place to shine.” We are grateful for the many blessings the Quest Center has given our family. That is why we have stayed so many years.”

What I love most about Quest is that our family can become healthy together, as well as making lasting friendships along the way! Since joining the Quest family, I have lost 35 pounds and I’m still going – I am strengthening my mind and my body. The strength and confidence being taught to me and my children is priceless, and I will forever be thankful for that!”
