Classes we offer
Martial Arts Pre-School
Getting children involved in martial arts at an early age develops body awareness and fundamental attention skills to prepare them for more structured learning settings.
Learning is presented in a fun and appealing way by skilled instructors, who present classes designed to sustain high interest.
Martial Arts for Kids
Kids especially benefit from being enrolled in our structured program because of its positive environment. When kids come to their martial arts classes they are taught to work hard in order to achieve their goals.
Our instructors model and reinforce discipline and focus. At an early age, kids feel a sense of pride in their accomplishments and will experience an increased self-esteem
“My kids learned important values. The instructors have a knack of correcting and encouraging in an atmosphere of fun! My kids love going to class."- (Lynda Fownes)
“We are able to teach kids important values by encouraging them twice as much as we correct them, and by making every single class tons of fun!” -(Sensei Dean Lirette)
Martial Arts for Teens
Beyond living a healthy lifestyle, Teens gain confidence and inner strength to deal with challenging situations that could arise. Bullying and drugs are realities that make positive role models imperative to help teens make positive choices.
Classes are tailored to keep Teens engaged and Instructors keep in touch with parents in order to have as much impact as possible.
Martial Arts for Adults
Adults are provided guidance in self-mastery. They learn how to push their mind and body outside their comfort zone and over time become very positive and powerful in their work, social, and family lives.
Adults learn how their body and mind work together and practice applying the techniques while attending classes.
Students, both male and female can expect to gain rapid fat loss, lean out their figure, tone their muscles, become more flexible, increase circulation, increase balance, coordination, increase sense of well-being, and increase overall confidence.
