JUNIOR KARATE CLASS:

This style of martial arts is a very balanced style, consisting of equal hands and feet, equal offense and defense.
It Builds confidence & self esteem, Improves focus and concentration.
Unless you are training to be a professional kickboxer,
Karate is generally more of a time commitment than the sport of kickboxing because you are testing for belts.
It's great for all ages.
Martial Arts also teaches you to believe in yourself, and to work hard to achieve goals, while having fun!
Children are taught the importance of good sportsmanship, and that the Martial Arts is to be used as a means for self-defense only.
The satisfaction and confidence achieved by the process of earning belts, has positive benefits that carry over to other aspects of ones life.
White Karate uniforms are required for beginners, and can be purchased at first class (visit "pricing" for more info)
