The Karate programs offer students an introduction to the sport of Karate.
Karate can be described as a martial art that makes use of hands, feet, elbows, knees, and other body parts as tools of self-defense. A variety of techniques, includes blocks, strikes, evasions, throws, and joint manipulations.
Karate practice is divided into 3 aspects: Kihon (basics), Kata (forms), and Kumite (sparring).
The word “karate” is a combination of two Japanese characters: Kara, meaning empty, and Te,
meaning hand. Thus, karate means “empty hand”.
For children, learning the art of karate has many advantages. Through my teaching experience I have learned that all children are unique and benefit in different ways. Apart from being an excellent form of self-defense, karate improves fitness, strength, flexibility, and general conditioning. Karate requires a high level of mental discipline and may help to improve a child’s focus and concentration.
