RECOMMENDATION EXCERPTS
Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind
It is with great pleasure that we write this letter in support of Mathew
Bayley. His contribution to the students at the Colorado School for the Deaf
and the Blind has been outstanding and unique. Through their contact with
Mathew, the students have experienced obvious self-growth. Over forty students
at our school are benefiting from Mathew's leadership. His "magic touch" has
added a dimension to their lives that cannot be measured.
Gordon L. Kaufman
Superintendent
California State Police - Crime Prevention Program
Mr. Bayley possesses a talent for imparting self-esteem as well as knowledge
and skill to his program participants. As the California State Police Crime
Prevention Coordinator for Southern California, I have taken part in many
assault prevention training's. In my opinion, Mr. Bayley is one of the most
talented and concerned instructors I have had the opportunity to observe. I
would not hesitate to recommend his training.
Joseph C. Carbone
Sergeant
Crime Prevention Coordinator
Carmel Middle School
Mathew Bayley has done extensive work at Carmel Middle School with his
Self-protection and Empowerment programs. Matt established a positive rapport
with students, parents, and staff. He has a unique sense that determines the
best way to work with individuals and groups. I would not hesitate in
recommending Mr. Bayley to work with young people and schools. His program and
training is vital in helping young people gain confidence and improve
self-esteem.

My association with Mathew Bayley as a Women's Self-Defense instructor for the
YMCA has been very positive. He is honest, dependable, and cooperative. In all

recommend Mathew without reservation.

National Exchange Club for the Prevention of Child Abuse
It has been my pleasure to work closely with Mathew Bayley for the past five years.
Mr. Bayley has a very special touch. Mr. Bayley is, by far, the finest instructor of children
with whom I have come in contact. I believe that he would be an asset to any program.
He is talented, innovative, and enthusiastic.
Toni Sarciell Executive Director
Children's World
We at Children's World are enjoying the services of Mathew Bayley.
We take 4 1/2 year olds to 10 year olds to his karate classes every week.
The children really look forward to their classes .
Instead of thinking of the class as hard, they think of it as fun;
the Key to Mathew's success. Mathew also feels that each child's self-image is fragile and
he's careful to teach in a nurturing way, punctuated with lots of humor.
He notices even the smallest accomplishments and is always ready with praise.
Kay Simon Director
Big Kids Little Kids
We have been taking children for karate instructions from Mathew Bayley since April 1987.
The results have been amazing. Children who had a very negative impression of themselves
were astounded by their own accomplishments. We heard "Look what I can do" instead
of "I can't." Mathew knows each child individually and works to help each child feel a
sense of accomplishment over reaching even the smallest goal. When observing the classes
you can feel the positive attitude in Mathew and in the children. As an instructor,
Mathew is consistent in his teaching and in the control techniques. He is firm yet friendly
and warm. The children know what to expect. My only concern is that more parents don't
take advantage of this program.
