*Students are taught karate basic and advanced techniques found in Shotokan karate. Thes
e consist of blocks, strikes, kicks, stances, and KATA (prearranged sequences of movements) . At the same time, over time, students are introduced techniques, principles, and strategies from other arts. For example, from Boxing, we learn mobility, ducking, weaving, slipping, and conditioning. From Judo, we learn how to fall, how to throw, and how to fight when we are on the ground. *Students also have the option of studying various martial art weapons.
*The initial benefits are physical conditioning and a sense of well-being gained through the hard workouts and the friendships gained in a healthy environment. Additionally, the workouts are an excellent method of stress reduction. As students progress through the curriculum they gain physical and mental skills to handle themselves in so called "self-defense" situations. Our school emphasizes adrenal response conditioning or in other words, "being able to keep command of yourself while in a highly stressful situation".
*You will learn to use your entire body when exercising. You will learn techniques of self-defense from several martial arts that will enable you to utilize your own individual natural abilities to best defend yourself. You will learn more about yourself, your strengths, your weaknesses, and how to further improve yourself at your own pace
