Ricardo Guerrero, president of PUNOK USA and Shodan Martial Arts Academy, has always been a determined man. It has made him both happy and successful, and he never gives up. “We opened Shodan Academy about 12 years ago, and have worked on teaching students and kids in our community ever since then,” Guerrero says. “It was about seven years ago that I had the idea of creating a brand of karate uniforms and gear, designed to be used in traditional and Olympic-style karate competitions.”
