Bret Gordon blatantly lies about his background. He gets caught in those lies. He denies that he lied and then tells more lies to try and cover up the previous lies he told. He gets caught in his new lies and creates more. When his unexhaustive amount of lying doesn't work he then denies that he made any such claim in the first place.
Gordon isn't concerned with telling the truth...his only goal is to build the perfect lie. He lies, fabricates his evidence and omits facts to build his perfect lie. He has no remorse and will go so low as to defame a 11 year old rape victim. https://theninjerkiller.blogspot.com/2025/08/bret-gordons-misunderstood.html
Last year, Gordon joined National Karate Juijitsu Federation (NKJF) and was abruptly asked to leave this organization by the owner and then president of the NKJF Steven Johnson. The reason given was that Gordon was not able to prove his martial arts background. About two weeks ago Gordon posted on his online blog boasting that he had been "reinstated" in the NKJF, the National Karate Jiujitsu Federation. https://bretgordon.weebly.com/blog/nkjf-reinstatement#/ He posted a letter from the new President off the NKJF proudly asserting his reinstatement.
On the heels of my exposing how he lied about Jack Stern, Yusaki Hatashi, the daitoryu and that he covered up the multiple acts of rape of a convicted pedophile, Gordon approached the NKJF again joined and became the state representative. Gordon wasted no time in using this "reinstatement" as his vindication to proclaim that everything that was written about him were lies.Just a few days ago the current President and the board of ethics committee permanently banned Gordon. The letter, dated the 12th, is very clear on what they found and the grounds of his expulsion.
Mr. Johnson posted the expulsion publicly online. According to his blog on the 14th, Gordon wrote that he "stepped down". Gordon no doubt knew the lifetime expulsion was coming.
A lifetime expulsion or lifetime ban from a martial arts organization is a very serious consequence and is typically reserved for the most serious offenses. These typically include, serious misconduct or criminal behavior. Ethical or moral misconduct such as abuse of students, sexual misconduct, financial exploitation, violence outside the dojo and or criminal activity or behavior. Fraudulent Claims or Rank Misrepresentation such as claiming ranks never earned, self-promoting without recognition, falsifying lineage or selling fake certificates. The NKJF Expulsion letter speaks for itself.
Lastly, an expelled instructor's students’ ranks may no longer be recognized. They could be told their belts don’t “count” anymore, especially if they continue under the banned instructor. Other schools or organizations may not only follow suit with the ban but also question the legitimacy of a student's rank and lineage if it’s tied to an expelled teacher.
