Our unique SAFETY KIDS PROGRAM for children 5-7 years of age was started in the mid-1980's. We take the fundamentals of traditional Okinawan Karate and integrate the safety concepts of SAFETY KIDS, INC., a child saffety program endorsed by law enforcement agencies across the country. Our program is designed to develop coordination, balance, strength, self-discipline, self-esteem, responsibility, life protection skills (self-defense) and basic personal safety in a fun filled and energetic environment.
Our regular KARATE PROGRAM is for both Children and Adults. We start our children at 8 years of age and older. Our Adult Program is unique in that is is focused to older adults (Boomers). All of our four Senior Instructors are all in their mid-50's to early 60's. Our moto is one is never too old to learn self-defense. Our Karate classes are divided into both Beginner and Advanced Levels.
