Our martial arts programs will help channel your child's energy into a positive direction! Our programs are proven to increase confidence, discipline, courtesy, respect, and physical motor skills - while having fun at the same time!

Our Children’s Karate program combines traditional martial arts training with high level character development and state of the art teaching methods. Not only do our children learn self-defense, they also develop very positive feelings about themselves and others. Children learn how to focus and concentrate. They have fun while they workout and take pride in becoming more physically fit. Studying Martial Arts builds mental character, physical strength, and the appreciation for the values of discipline, courtesy, and respect. Karate kids are good kids!

There are many concerns with how our children are growing up in today's world. The pressures on our youth today are very different from previous generations. Children don't only have to worry about getting good grades and behaving, they have the constant battle of avoiding drugs, gangs, violence, bullying and peer pressure.

At Bamboo Village Martial Arts, we realize that in order to give a child a head start in life, they must possess certain skills to cope with today's challenges. Although the need for knowing self defense is both mentally and physically important, we cannot ignore the Life Skills and Mental Benefits that we must teach our children.

Great for the little ones!

This class is geared towards basic skills such as balance, coordination paying attention and listening. 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 they remember!

This class 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.

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.
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.

This additional training program goes over all aspects of weapons training from basic drills to advanced katas. At intermediate ranks, we begin 2-person attack/defense drills and at advanced ranks, we practice kobudo (weapons) sparring.

Weapons trained with include bo, sai, nunchaku, tonfa, eku, jiffa and katana.
