Instructor Steele Lane

Instructor Steele Lane is a third degree black belt in American Kenpo Karate and teaches classes at PowerKenpo martial arts, self-defense and karate school.

Mr. Lane began his kenpo journey in the late 80’s under Sifu Rick Fowler where he earned the rank of Brown Belt. After several years away from martial arts he resumed his studies under Sifu Jim Dryburgh when Powerkenpo moved to its present location on Old Denton Road.

He has since earned the rank of Third Degree Black Belt. As an instructor he assists with Junior Dragon and Adult classes, Sparring, Escrima, and Systema. His entire family is active at Powerkenpo – His wife is a 3rd class Brown Belt, his daughter is a Green Belt, and his son is a Little Dragon Yellow Belt..

“I believe that Powerkenpo has something for everyone – health and wellness, fitness, strength, flexibility, mental focus, self-confidence, and positive self esteem. The principles we teach are applicable to everything from schoolwork and athletic activities to building positive relationships with people and learning to work in a group. As a parent, I feel secure knowing that my kids have the necessary skills to avoid negative situations, and the tools to protect themselves should the need arise.”
