Scott Palermo (Mr. Scott) started studying Kenpo Karate with Mr. Ronemus in 1999. After sitting in the bleachers for two years watching his two sons study, he and his wife, Angela, decided to leave the bleachers and step onto the mat themselves. As Mr. Scott progressed through the ranks, he discovered that he enjoyed teaching others. By the rank of Advanced Green, Mr. Scott was a regular, assisting the instructors with the Tiny Tigers, Little Dragons and Juniors. Whether Mr. Scott is playing "Tiger Tails" with the Tiny Tigers, or teaching techniques and forms to the Little Dragons and Juniors, he is a regular fixture in the studio.
