With the arrival of 2008 brought with it the formation of Elite Mixed Martial Arts Center. A new martial arts school that teaches three ranges:
Standing
Clinches
Ground fighting
Within the disciplines of Jujitsu, Ninjitsu, Karate, Aikido, Grappling and Kickboxing.
Even though Elite M.M.A. Center is a mixed martial art, we still maintain the traditional martial arts through our advanced weapons .
Our philosophy of martial arts is to promote the warrior spirit of discipline, self-control, focus, determination, consideration and respect while bringing the values of family to the forefront. Elite Mixed Martial Arts Center is a family based school with over 25 years of martial arts experience, with which to help enrich the minds and hearts of their students.
Martial arts is not just the art of self-defense, but the ability to bring what is inside out. To develop within its students the qualities of a true Martial Artist, then to bring those attributes into everyday lives. We at Elite Mixed Martial Arts Center promise to cultivate these to create a well-rounded individual, who will have the ability to handle the challenges of each new day.
Endurance and Loyalty comes from the heart, Intensity and Technique comes from the mind and Energy comes from the soul.
"You will have the ability to face any obstacle if you put your heart, mind and soul into it!"

2019 WORLD KARATE UNION - HALL OF FAME
Information regarding the World Karate Union Hall of Fame:
The World Karate Union also had a for tournaments during the late 1990's and early 2000's that would rate competitors for any tournaments they competed at, regardless if they were affiliated with the national promotions, which prevented great competitors from competing due to extensive traveling and expenses.
In 2009, when MMA was legalized in Pennsylvania, the WKU partnered with Central Pennsylvania Warriors Challenge and hosted an MMA cage fighting event, which was successful and held twice after.
The World Karate Union believes in giving back to the community and hosts an annual Toys for Tots Karate Tournament every year since 2011 and has raised over $20,000 in that time to give away to the charity.
In 2014, WKU co founder Kathi Tasetano passed away unexpectedly and her son, Trevor, began to operate the organization. The Kathi Tasetano Memorial Scholarship was set up to award two $500 for a boy and girl black belt in the 15-17 year old division at the WKU tournament every year since her passing.
The WKU is only as strong as its members, and continues
to grow.
