Dear Friend,
I’d like for you to join me in battle.
You see, even in today’s “civilized” society...there is still an enemy pursuing you.
But it’s not like the old days, when the bear would come down from the mountain and try to eat you.
Even though civilization has driven away the actual bear...today’s “bear” is just as ferocious...just as hungry...and a lot trickier.
Let me explain. Have you ever found yourself asking:
“I’m successful...why don’t I have the
peace of mind -- the satisfaction -- I thought I would have at this
point in my life?”
“Have I become “soft” -- the victim of
a sedentary “couch potato” lifestyle?
“Have I lost the edge, the fire, the passion I had a few years back?”
Here’s the problem:
The same civilization that has protected us from the actual bear has also created a different type of “bear”...like I said...just as hungry, and a lot trickier. It’s called STRESS...and you may have seen its ugly “tracks” near your home:
For example, have you ever experienced:
a lack of energy...a sense of fatigue that prevents you
from doing the things you enjoy?
boredom, and a feeling that life has lost its excitement?
frustration...a lack of patience...a feeling that time is slipping through your hands?

I am writing to you -- as one professional to another -- with an important message:
It doesn’t have to be that way. The Stress-Free,
Confident Lifestyle is yours for the taking!
And it’s a lot easier than you think.
Imagine the confidence and the peace of mind you would have if you knew:
the principles of stress reduction...your “key” to inner
peace!
the “secret” to smashing self-imposed barriers
the self-defense skills necessary to protect yourself and your family
My name is Keith Hafner. I’m the owner of “Keith Hafner’s Karate” on Main Street in Ann Arbor. I have been teaching Stress Free, Confident Lifestyle Strategies to professionals just like yourself, at the same location, for twenty five years. We currently have 800 students, and have graduated thousands of Black Belts.
You might wonder why I am so confident that these “ancient secrets” will work for you.
Here’s why: I have used them myself to make my school the number #1 Martial Art school in the nation, out of the 1,600 U.S. Martial Art Center Schools.
But...I don’t expect you to rely only on my “say-so”... Read what these “Keith Hafner’s Karate” students have to say:
| The greatest
gift I've received from my time at Keith Hafner's Karate is the ability to
push beyond my comfort zone. Before I started my training in 1997, I was
getting along OK. I had debts, but not huge ones. I had started a
part-time business which brought in a little extra money, but not much. I
didn’t try new things, since I was already mostly content. I was
surviving, but not really living. The teachers at the school started me with little challenges at first to build up my confidence and then bigger ones. The funny thing was, I always felt safe. One day, I was testing for a new belt and I realized that I could try some moves with which I wasn't entirely comfortable. I took the chance and when I walked home with my new belt, I felt like I had gone beyond doing just "OK" and had really excelled. My entire life didn’t changed in that one moment, but I did begin to glimpse the possibilities. As I pushed myself to try new things in my training, that courage began to enter my life outside the school. The change was slow. This past year, though, because I dared to work on more challenging projects, my business earned more than ten times what it did in 1997. I've begun to travel, to experience more of what this world has to offer! Greg Peters, Computer Consultant, Ann Arbor |

Just a brief note of thanks on this the occasion of my promotion to Brown Belt. I knew when I started training with you 2 years ago I would notice changes in my life; I didn’t realize how dramatic those changes would be. Here’s a brief list of how my life has improved since I began studying with you and Master Robert: 1. I have much greater focus in my life 2. I am in much better physical condition 3. I am much more flexible which makes little things like walking around easier—really! 4. I deal with tense situations much more calmly 5. I almost never lose my temper; those who know me well find this to be the greatest benefit I have reaped from “Keith Hafner’s Karate!” Master Hafner, when I joined the school I gave reasons for joining the school; I think one of them was to improve my flexibility. Little did I know! I have done this but I have done so much more! I can’t thank you and Master Robert enough. My experience at “Keith Hafner’s Karate” has been one of the most positive experiences of my life. Glenn Davis, Ann Arbor

I have to confess that I was skeptical about some of the things I had heard about martial arts and “Keith Hafner’s Karate.”. Maybe that’s why I walked past your school for almost 20 years before I stopped in to give it a try. Besides, I’m a lawyer. I’m paid to be skeptical. I thought that studying karate might help me get in better shape, but I questioned whether it could make a significant difference. Since I started training, however, my flexibility and stamina have improved dramatically. In fact, my training at “Keith Hafner’s Karate” helped prepare me mentally and physically to complete 2 marathons, 4 half-marathons, and several other long distance runs. Also, my training has proven to be a great stress reliever, which has helped immeasurably in many facets of my professional and personal life. Of course, people talk a lot about the special skills that KHK offers children, but I want to stress that it offers something very special to adults as well. KHK provides an oasis where everyone is treated with respect, where everyone is encouraged (and expected) to do their best, and where every individual is nurtured and helped to excel. It is a very civilized corner of an often uncivilized world. I think many more adults would try it if they knew what they would find. Thank you, Master Hafner, for all you have done for me, for so many of my friends, and for all of your students. Len Niehoff, Attorney, Ann Arbor |
It’s no wonder that professionals like yourself have turned to me for Stress-Free, Confident Lifestyle Strategies for the last twenty five years...the simple fact is that these little known strategies work.

Of course, we will be teaching you the self-defense skills that will make you feel “in command” of any situation. For example, you will learn:
How to Double Your Physical Power: You might be surprised
to find out that a few “easy to learn” principles of body balance will
enable you to execute kicking and punching techniques with devastating power!
Beginning and Advanced Self-Defense Techniques,
including: What to do if suddenly grabbed from behind; how to escape when
your wrists have been grabbed; and two simple skills that empower you to
remain calm when facing danger
Family Protection Strategies -- including “High Risk” situations... What they are, and how to avoid them...also, we will be teaching you how to teach these skills to your family members...virtually “danger-proofing” your spouse and your children!

The “Keith Hafner’s Karate” program is designed to teach simple-to-learn Lifestyle Strategies that will work for the busy professional person.
For example, you will learn:
Self-Empowerment...how to take command of your
health, your career, your lifestyle…your destiny!
How to deal with the paralysis of the “comfort zone” --
and why you MUST learn to step outside of it
How to Smash Thru Previously Imposed Limitations
Why you might be one simple step away from maintaining the peace and satisfaction you have been pursuing!
Just picture this...
Your day begins early; you are focused, relaxed, and alert. The old sense of fatigue is gone, replaced by a sense of energy...a feeling of purpose.
As you begin your workday, you are pleased to notice yourself dealing with others in a confident manner...completely at ease. You also begin to notice the new level of respect with which you are treated by colleagues and co-workers.
You move with the assurance and with the authority that comes from knowing that you can handle any situation. For yourself. And for your family. Finally! You have the stress-free, confident lifestyle you deserve!
The sad truth is that many people
don’t realize just how easy it is to learn these “survival skills.”
In fact, you might find yourself saying:
“I’m too busy -- it must take a lot of time”
or
“I’m not in very good shape -- I don’t know if I could do it”
or
“Doesn’t it take years of study?”
But don’t worry! We have “ironed out the wrinkles.” These “result-getting” strategies provide sure-fire results for busy professionals like yourself...who invest in only 2 forty-five minute training sessions each week. And it doesn’t matter if you are not in good shape to begin with. Within a few short weeks, you will feel like a new man.
You may not realize it yet, but virtually anybody can learn these skills...and it’s a lot easier than you might think.
Now, you may be asking, “How can I know for sure that the ‘Keith Hafner’s Karate’ teaching system will work for me?”
I’ve got some great news for you: It’s never been easier to find out.
First of all, I don’t want you to believe these amazing claims based only on my say-so (although a lot of other’s “say-so,” too: see enclosed “Success Stories”).
No, I’d like to make it possible for you to see, first hand, (and, at my own personal expense), exactly how we make good on all of these stunning claims.
Now, here comes the good part.
I am so sure that you would enjoy and benefit from the ‘Keith Hafner’s Karate’ program that I am offering you, FREE of charge, a One Week Trial Membership. These are Private Lessons…just you and the teacher. I’ll even toss in a free Karate uniform.
See for yourself if, in fact, I can deliver the powerful benefits promised in this letter. We’ve made it incredibly easy.
Imagine how you will feel during Class #1 when:
You begin your Martial Art training with Private Instuction, “one-on-one” with one of our professional teachers. You will be pleasantly surprised when you see how easy it is to learn “The Six Points of Body Balance” ...and “The Weapons of Self-Defense.” You will also learn two simple “safety strategies” that you can share with your family members!
Then, in Class #2:
The Private Instruction continues; Your confidence soars as you learn “How To Move With Speed & Power” techniques (in fact, you will instantly double your power with a simple technique for shifting body weight!) We will also be showing you the simple relaxation technique that has been taught by Martial Art Masters for hundreds of years...enabling you to reduce your stress level and have the refreshed, alert mind-set you need...any time you want!
What comes next? You will be so excited when, after our 2-week “Private Instruction” orientation, you join a high energy, enthusiastic Beginning Group Class. You feel stronger and more confident after learning Master Hafner’s “Skills of Empowment” and how to immediately apply them. You will also learn “The Physiology of Confidence”...the “easy to learn” adjustments to your posture, voice projection, and eye contact that will instantly let people know they are dealing with a person of confidence!
Imagine how you will feel when you see your skills beginning to develop...in a positive, encouraging Martial Art environment! Already, you feel more physically fit and more capable. When you begin to realize that Martial Arts will be the key to developing the Stress-Free, Confident Lifestyle that you’ve always wanted -- you will know that you have made a wise choice!
If you are even a bit curious about what the Martial Arts have to offer...if you have a feeling that this might be one of the most important things you can do for yourself, I urge you to register today.
But Be Warned. Remember, I’m inviting you to check out the most successful Martial Art school in the country! Due to increasing demand, we have limited time slots for Introductory Lessons. Avoid long delays. Call as soon as possible.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Keith Hafner
