Ethan Barrons

Ethan began karate in 2015. He earned his Junior Black Belt in December 2020, testing with his father and sister who both went to 2nd degree. In 2023, Ethan earned his 2nd degree black belt at the age of 13. His favorite thing about Isshinryu is that you learn how to defend yourself in a real fight. Ethan has competed in many tournaments including FSDC, KIAI and the IHOF where he has earned multiple 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards in Kata, Weapons, and Kumite. He has also volunteered with the dojo in community events such as Light up the Night and the Memorial Day parade.

Outside of karate, Ethan is involved with his church, volunteering with various community projects. He also plays soccer and enjoys drawing; playing the saxophone; playing video games; biking; watching YouTube; and reading.
