Get To Know Our World Class Instructors
Master Geiter began his martial arts career over 30 years ago when he enrolled for karate lessons at the Bethlehem YMCA. He was fortunate to have 2 role models who already achieved their black belts, and they guided him in his journey to earn his black belt. Master John Gallagher has been Master Geiter’s Instructor since he was a green belt and Master Jim Horwath still trains and teaches at Master Gallagher’s studio.
Since joining the World Tang Soo Do Association in 1997, Master Geiter has been part of a structured and professional organization and is committed to improving his skills as a martial artist. It is through the relationships he made in the WTSDA that he has continued to expand and enhance his Tang Soo Do training by working in other martial arts such as Shotokan, Hap Ki Do and Judo.
In 2013 Master Geiter founded Saucon Valley Karate Academy in Hellertown, Pennsylvania. SVKA has been helping students develop leadership skills, self-defense and better physical fitness as they work to reach their goal of black belt excellence. In 2018, SVKA was voted Dojang of the Year by Region 8 of the World Tang Soo Do Association.
In 2019 after many years of training and dedication, Master Geiter earned his 5th degree Senior Master rank in Tang Soo Do and was awarded Master of the Year by the WTSDA. His mission is to continue training and guide his students to obtain excellence.
