Over 3200 hundred students have improved their self-esteem, coordination and balance at Annarino's Martial Arts School since GrandMaster George Annarino, 9th degree Black Belt, opened the doors to his school in 1985. Grandmaster Annarino's interest in Karate started in the 60's with his instructors Bud Carlson and Don Madden.

Annarino's is the oldest and most comprehensive karate school in Licking County, with approximately 150 students and 10 Black Belt instructors. Grandmaster Annarino lives by the philosophy of: "Be humble. Treat others the way you would want to be treated." What he loves the most about teaching is the way Martial Arts can change peoples lives.
