Karate Programs
KinderKicker
(Ages 3-5)
KinderKickers are karate students of three, four and sometime
five years of age. The Kinderkicker program was created by Karate
America in the early nineties to allow younger children the
opportunity to enjoy some of the same benefits as the older children
without requiring as much memorization. The KinderKicker learns to
focus, pay attention, be respectful and become part of a team while
thinking they're just having fun! A separate belt and promotion system for this age
group gives our young karate students the satisfaction of working
toward their own "black belt" just like the older students.
At some point (at the Chief Instructors discretion) the KinderKicker
will roll directly into the regular program.
Kids
While training in karate each student focuses not only on the
physical skills he or she must learn, but also on the important
skills that will help lead to personal success in life Learning
these life skills are just as important as being able to defend
yourself. The program has even more of a positive impact as the
Karate America system partners with parents and teachers to make
sure these life skills are being used at home and school before a
child is able to promote to their next belt.
Teens / Adults
Our program for teens and adults blend
the advantages of karate, leadership training, practical self
defense and fitness in a fun and exciting way.
Family Karate
This program provides the same benefits of our kids and
teen/adult program but allows you the opportunity to take class with
your child. Spend some quality time together while enjoying the
benefits of setting goals together, getting fit together and
learning to defend yourself!
