What is the minimum age to start martial arts?

We have children in our Junior Kids program that started when they were 3 years old. Our Junior Kids program officially starts at age 5, but children develop at different speeds.

Can I get hurt doing martial arts?

Both children and adults have a much greater chance of getting hurt playing football than martial arts. Many students train for years without ever receiving a single injury. Your safety is always our #1 concern. We use thick padded floor matting, safety gear and follow a strict set of rules and regulations.

How often should students attend class?

Two days a week with a qualified instructor is often enough to ensure a good consistent education. All of our term memberships have a three class per week allotment, which greatly exceeds the industry standard.

What are the benefits of martial arts training?

Martial arts and karate provide a wide range of physical and mental benefits including: great physical exercise, increased coordination, improved balance and flexibility, self-defense skills, weight loss, character development, confidence building, stress reduction, improved focus, and better self-control.
