Our school offers unique programs for children,
designed to be fun while at the same time providing physical, mental, emotional
and social development.
Little Dragons (3-4)
This class is for 3 and 4 year olds geared towards
basic skills such as balance, coordination and discipline. The Little
Dragons will learn blocks, punches and kicks all while having fun. They
will also learn basic Japanese terms and Karate history. You'll be
surprised at how much these little guys remember!
Tiny Tigers (5-6)
This
class is for 5 and 6 year olds and is a great introduction to the martial
arts. It's main focus is physical activity while learning the basics of
karate in a safe and fun environment. Students will be working on their
balance and coordination while learning Japanese terms and Karate history.
They will also go over life skills such as respect, discipline,
cleanliness, physical fitness and safety. The obstacle course, a Tiny
Tiger favorite, is a 5-10 minute section of class which consists of
jumping, blocking, kicking, crawling, rolling and punching while having a
blast. This class is a must-see!
Youth Karate (7-12)
This
program begins with basic moves such as kicks, punches, blocks and
two-person drills. The students begin to learn katas or forms of the
Uechi-Ryu system. Intermediate students begin sparring techniques such as
combinations and movements. The advanced students will begin to go over
body conditioning and advanced sparring, along with pressure points,
grappling and martial arts theory. Our
youth students learn through
dedication and perseverance that all worthwhile goals in life are possible.
The development of goal-setting skills in your child begins when they test for
their first belt and continues through each subsequent promotion examination,
which is held on an individual and group basis. Every student's ultimate goal is becoming
a Black Belt. This long-range goal serves as an important tool for building
desire, tenacity, and the importance of follow through in everything they do.
At promotion examinations, we evaluate much more
than mere physical skill. Promotions are based upon degree of improvement
(relative to each student's own potential), amount of effort, and self-control
and discipline, as demonstrated in their daily lives; at home, in school, and in
the Dojo.
Adult (13+) Karate
Training is centered around practicing
techniques that work in realistic self-defense situations. Emphasis is placed on
exercising courtesy, learning traditional values, and becoming a strong person,
both physically and mentally. We teach every aspect of the Martial Arts,
including history, tradition, culture, and philosophy.

over all aspects of weapons training from basic drills to advanced katas.
