Young Warriors (Ages 4–12)
Tuesday & Thursdays 5:30pm

In addition to developing physical fitness self-defense and safety skills, our Karate Program will also help your child build confidence, focus, and respect for oneself and others. Studies have shown that children who study Karate often show significant improvement in concentration and self-discipline - both in school and at home. More than any other sport for children, karate and its inherent values counteract the "win at all costs" mentality so common in sports today. It is one of the few sports in which there are no “benchwarmers.” Every child can fully participate at their own pace which can make karate particularly helpful for children who struggle with attention and behavior disorders.
