On December 20, 1997, at the age of 8, Mr. Laso enrolled at the American Karate Institute. After taking a break for about 3 years, he re-enrolled in the program. He started assisting classes as a red belt and earned his Black Belt at the age of 17.

Through out the years, he has shown dedication and a love for the martial arts. Not only do the kids love his pleasing personality but his martial art skills are superb. We are blessed to have him.
