Programs

Kyokushin Adults

(Ages 15 and Up)

Adults can enroll in the Kyokushin Karate program and learn the full syllabus of this Japanese martial art. Practice includes the three elements of traditional karate training: kihon (basic techniques), kata (forms), and kumite (fighting). Specialty classes dedicated to kata, fighting, and self-defense further enhance our Kyokushin Karate program. For those interested in competitive fighting, opportunities are available from light contact formats all the way to bare-knuckle full-contact knockdown fights. Interested students can work towards competing at any level. A path for progression is available for adults that are not interested in full-contact fighting competition.

The physical demands of karate training help develop cardiovascular endurance, strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. Great benefits are found for the mind as well — as karate helps relieve stress, increases focus and awareness, and develops a resilient and unshaken spirit. Classes are available for Adults and Juniors to train together so that family members can spend quality time with each other. Adult-only classes are offered as well.

  • Develop cardiovascular endurance, strength, and flexibility.
  • Relieve stress, clear your mind, and renew your spirit.
  • Classes are available for mixed ages. Train as a family and strengthen bonds.

Kyokushin Juniors

(Ages 8 – 14)

The Kyokushin Juniors curriculum includes all of the concepts in our younger programs, but presented in a manner commensurate with the student age range. Having separate classes for these students allows us to focus on the needs of the children more closely. The curriculum is Kyokushin karate slightly modified to increase safety. The Juniors learn the same sets of basic techniques, combinations, and forms as the adult karate classes. However, fighting and sparring is done in a very controlled manner with younger students only fighting with instructors (and not with each other) until the student is comfortable and ready.

  • A rigorous program that develops self-discipline
  • Stay physically fit and build heathy habits.
  • Gain confidence, sharpen focus, and develop perseverance.
  • Make good friends.

Young Lions

(Ages 4-7)

Our Young Lions program is designed for children ages 4 to 7, blending fun and physical activity with the structure of traditional karate. Classes use age-appropriate exercises, games, and martial arts training to build balance, coordination, focus, and listening skills. These are the same skills that support success in school and beyond.

As children progress, we gradually introduce more complex karate techniques while reinforcing positive character traits such as patience, respect, responsibility, and self-control. Safety lessons are also woven into the curriculum — covering topics like fire drills, 911 emergencies, and awareness of strangers — always taught in a way that empowers children without causing unnecessary fear.

With encouragement, praise, and a strong sense of achievement, Young Lions grow in confidence and develop habits that will benefit them both inside and outside the dojo.

  • Develop healthy habits
  • Learn patience
  • Gain confidence
  • Get strong
  • Have fun!
