Instructor Cheryl Murphy
Herb Wiles, her instructor for 35 years, taught Cheryl self-respect, discipline, and self-confidence, and self-defense. She learned about the sense of community, family, and the need to always give back- while having fun. Though she has been in a lot of various activities such as dance and music, Cheryl’s dedication to Karate has given her more than she could ever dream. She always wanted to be an Olympian; and in her efforts to do so, was able to travel the world representing USA in national and international competitions. Throughout her journey, Cheryl was exposed to different disciplines that enabled her to build relationships all over the world. She wants to pass her legacy on in gratitude.
