We have age specific beginner classes so we can work with each beginner group and their own specific needs. Our Tots class introduces martial arts to 4-6 year olds, our Juniors class introduces 7-12 year olds, and our adults class introduces teens and adults to the martial arts.

Children's Karate
Our children's classes focus more on our 3 rules: Self Discipline, Self Control, and Respect for others. This way they can develop the ability to control their bodies and behavior, be responsible and pick up after themselves, as well as be polite and well mannered towards adults and peers alike. Also, by utilizing positive reinforcement techniques, students will be building their self esteem and self confidence so they can resist unhealthy peer pressure and have a positive self image. With their martial arts training we tailor our teaching methods to each group and ability level in order to keep classes exciting, fun, and motivating.

"We have seen such a difference in our son since he started."

Our instructors have not only mastered their Martial arts abilities, but are trained to teach children. Simply being a Black belt does not automatically make someone an excellent instructor, which is why our professional instructors receive weekly training on teaching methods, motivation techniques, and other vital skills so children and adults alike receive the best experience on the path to becoming a Black Belt.
As students progress through the curriculum, they will earn colored belts and awards. Unlike many schools, our program is designed such that children set achievable goals and make regular progress throughout their training.

Adult Karate
Through the adult curriculum which we offer to adults and teenagers, students learn the techniques and forms of the Shaolin Kempo Karate system and how to apply them to real life self defense situations. As you progress you will be developing the muscles in your body while working on improving flexibility, building up your stamina, and relieving stress from home and work.

Leadership Training Program
Throughout the Leadership program, students will receive extra practice on their rank material, be exposed to special training such as sport karate, traditional weapons training, board breaking, and exposure to self defense techniques not covered in our regular classes. Also, we develop our student's character through 6 rotating leadership traits and our 3 rules through the Colors of Character program. Through the leadership program, students receive the opportunity to participate in special events, seminars and training programs such as regional seminars led by our Director in Connecticut, 8th degree Black Belt Master David Shirley, and our Certified Instructor Training program for students who want to share the martial arts experience with others.

"Great class."
