Master Lance Meltzer
IMPACT instructor, 8th Degree Black Belt
Lance earned his 8th Degree Black Belt in Kenpo, as well as a certified senior instructor in Jeet Kune Do (Progressive Fighting Systems), Haganah (Israeli Martial Arts), Israeli tactical knife fighting & ground survival. Training students from the age of 14 to 80 isn't easy but our Impact system makes it easier to give each student what they need. Lance also has trained law enforcement personnel in weapon disarms and anti-terrorist tactics.
In 1999 they started Napa’s first transported after school karate program. Over the years, Main Street Martial Arts has made a huge difference in many children’s lives to have them be able to pursue martial arts in an after-school program. “We get them to classes, you pick them up after class is over.” Many of the kids have earned their Black Belt in our after school program.
A retired Chiropractor, Lance, and his wife, Darlene are the founders of Nature’s Way Montessori in Napa. He teaches the adult Integrated Fighting Systems/IMPACT. Lance has also been a lead facilitator for the Napa County Office of Education’s ROPES COURSE.
