During this time, he also became involved as an instructor with the Bayonne High School Karate League under Master George Wanko.

Sensei Marsh is currently a Yo-Dan (4th degree black belt) in Isshin Ryu Karate. He serves as the Bayonne High School Karate League Advisor and currently teaches classes at the Bayonne Martial Arts Center." |
