Carlos Torres- LBHS Soccer Captain and 2021 State Champion
As a mother of an athlete... my son has been playing soccer for 13 years.. travel ball and with school.. the older he got, it seems the more injury’s he was having.
My son for a couple years was having trouble with both of his hamstrings, his knees and especially his ankles.. My son’s last year of high school soccer. He thought his year was over.. He couldn’t run as fast, afraid that he was going to pull his hamstrings again and be in pain and not play the sport he loves, soccer. I prayed for an answer to help my son. The answer was Steve Miller, our chiropractor in town. And of course John..
John worked with my son the whole soccer season. Jon helped him learn about his body. How to stretch properly.. That was the key.. My son, Carlos Torres had a amazing soccer season for his school.. He was able to make 17 goals his senior year and many assists.. Became District Champions and scored 2 goals to win State championship for Long Beach High School..
Sign up your child with John..
I truly recommend John to work with your child.. So your kid can play the sport they love

Two and a half years later in 1983, at the age of 10 and half, Miller-Sensei tested and passed his 1st Dan (black belt) test. As of June 1983, Miller-Sensei, was the youngest person in the world to ever achieve a black belt in the Japan Karate Association through this legendary association. Miller-Sensei tested for his black belt in New Orleans, LA in May of 1983 in front of Chief instructors Master Masatoshi Nakayama 10th Dan and Master Takayuki Mikami 9th Dan. Master Nakayama was a student of Gichin Funakoshi, the creator and founder of Shotokan Karate-do and the Japan Karate Association. Master Masatoshi Nakayama was also a co-founder and Chief Instructor of the Japan Karate Association.
Master Takayuki Mikami is the first person to graduate from the Japan Karate Association's instructor training program instituted by Gichin Funakoshi and Masatoshi Nakayma, he is also the founder and Chief Instructor of the Louisiana Karate Association and All South Karate Federation. Master Mikami, at age 88, is still teaching at his school in New Orleans, where Miller-Sensei still periodically attends classes to continue his training under the internationally recognized Shotokan Master. As a result Miller-Sensei is from the following lineage: Gichin Funakoshi, Masatohi Nakayama, Takayuki Mikami, and Rodney Fisher in the Japan Karate Association and International Shotokan Karate Federation. In 2017 Miller-Sensei joined the Sekai-Day-Kan Martial Arts Federation and the Black Dragon Fighting Society.

Shortly after Miller-Sensei started teaching Shotokan Karate for the Fighting Tigers Martial Arts Academy and the Qatar Boys and Girls Club in Pass Christian. In 2019 Miller-Sensei received his 4th Dan (4th degree black belt) Testing under Grand Master's Clinton Jacobs, Sean Smith, and Arcino Stanley. In 2017 Miller-Sensei started on a spiritual quest to enlighten himself and become the best person he could be. In this new quest he found yoga and became a student of Yogini, Connie Raley. Miller-Sensei studied with Connie for the next three years and in October 2020 finished and became a certified yoga instructor through the Shanti School of Yoga under internationally recognized yogini, Nathalie Croix.
Miller-Sensei has been on a path destined to teach the martial arts since he was 7 years old. This life long journey has finally come to pass. As Miller-Sensei begins the next path of his sacred journey, he would like to invite all of you to come join him here at Full Circle Martial Arts & Yoga.

- Parent Testimony!!!!!
- "The variety of classes, the Sensei’s knowledge, experience and skills are all impressive. The intuitive way that Sensei Miller has created trust and confidence with my teenage girls is even more impressive! Sensei Miller’s integrity is also noteworthy and creates safety in his dojo. The addition of mindfulness and breathing in the classes is also much appreciated and valued. Wonderful energy here." ~Tonia Andersen
- “Him being able to build up his self confidence through the little activities they do... He doesn’t even realize how much he’s blossomed just in the last two weeks,” said parent Jill Cibene.
"Parents:
If your child wants to get better in the sport they love...
I recommend that you sign your child up.. worth the money and time..
I have two teenagers boys that wants to participate in many different sports.
But, they realized that their body needs to stretch..
Kids their ages don’t learn or don’t want to take the time to learn how to stretch their bodies right.. they just run on the field without stretching properly...
believe me, My oldest(17) thought that. Until he strained both hamstrings, knees and ankles.. He thought that his senior year of soccer was over. Until Steve Miller and John Miller got a hold of him. After training with John, my son was able to take his team to win a State championship, making 2 goals for Long Beach in soccer. The Bearcats won 3-1..
My youngest son(16) wants the training and direction from John ,too.
Call John, ask questions and sign up your kid.." Michelle Englett
