I brought my son to this so-called martial arts academy and come to find out when I started to talk to him in detail about how he liked it, he started talking about sexual connotations.  I asked him where did he learn this?  My son told me I learn a lot at Premier Martial Arts Academy.  I was in the car when I heard this and I immediately went back to the business to question Mr. Michael Peterson.  He denied everything.  Then I checked his background.  He has numerous charges to include felony assault, he was involved in a snake ring operation, he and his wife, girlfriend, have an ongoing domestic dispute in another county of Kentucky.  I immediately took my son out of his program.  All I can say to anyone that is going to enlist their child into his program, beware, especially beware of the over night stays.

Lol

AUTHOR: Anonymous - Littleton (U.S.A.)

Local FBI? lol. First off, the closest FBI station is about 90 miles away. Second, FBI doesn't intervene on simple civil suits.

Retort

AUTHOR: Joe - Independence (USA)

So as a responsible parent you did of course notify the local authorities? I am surprised that you did not reference this in your claim or provide any indication of any action that could be substantiated in any way. I think these are pretty serious allegations and your lack of evidence calls into question their validity as well as your motives.

I was a Sensei at Premier Martial Arts and worked with Dr. Peterson daily. I can honestly say that there is no time when anyone is alone with any child in the school. If anyone were to watch the way classes are conducted they would know all of this is false. Parents are right there with their children at all times. Dr. Peterson, nor anyone else for that matter, is ever alone with any child. Never is there any talk of anything remotely sexual in the school. My son and I are both current students of the school and have been for years.

I think it is sad that you are attempting to slam a small business man who is simply trying to make a difference in the lives of kids and adults in the Northern Kentucky area. I would like you challenge you specifically to back up any claims you have. If you felt your child was in danger or was exposed to inappropriate behavior and you did not contact local authorities then you are guilty of endangering every other child there. Unless of course your accusations are false.

To everyone else reading this I want to firmly say the statements by this individual are untrue. Children and adults will learn many things at this school, positive things. They will learn self-respect, discipline, how to work as a team, and how to be strong and believe in themselves. My children attend here as do many of my friends. Our students are from all walks of life. We have Doctors, Lawyers, Business Professionals, Fire and EMT, as well as law enforcement who train in this school. I am sure if there were any truth to your claims they would not be attending today.

I challenge anyone who wants to know the truth to simply stop in the school and see for yourself and you will see these charges are unfounded slander. If you have questions please feel free to call the school and ask for Joe. Sensei Mike will surely get you in touch with me.

Joe

No Rebuttal Only fact to the case

AUTHOR: Jeff - New York (United States of America)

Why would anyone need anymore information.  I did report this information to the authorities and I am afraid for my life with the consequences of Mr. Michael Peter of Premier Martial Arts.

Here is one of many charges against Michael Peterson of Premier Martial Arts:

I left town after all the distraught.

The Truth shall set you free

AUTHOR: Joe - Independence (USA)

Why would we need more information? Simple, you started this will allegations of child molestation and now when challenged your only proof was that Mike possessed some snakes; Seriously? Anyone can see that the first charges you talked about are the result of your own personal vendetta against Mike. If not then surely you have some other evidence to bring to bear.



Again, for anyone who is interested in the truth I am more than happy to help. If any children were ever in danger my own would not train there.

Yes there is a Ph.D. in Martial Arts Philosophy from the University of Asian Martial Arts

Studies.



Where are the facts!?



Sensei Michael is an amazing teacher and is always very appropriate around children. There are always parents there so I'm sure if he was doing or saying anything inappropriate there would be a lot of upset parents especially considering how many children attend.
