There's Power in Setting and Achieving Personal Goals!
Mental Development
To give a child the courage to say NO in the face of peer pressure! One of the scariest problems facing many parents today is the possibility that their child may become involved with drugs. The number of children taking drugs at a younger age is staggering. K.I.C.K. helps promote anti-drug awareness as well as teach anger management and conflict resolution. The program is designed to promote self-confidence and self-esteem--giving children the strength to resist peer pressure.
To help them succeed in life! K.I.C.K. will teach the child how to set goals and take responsibility for their own actions. These qualities, more than any others, will help the child develop as a leader and not as a follower. This, in turn, will ensure their success in school, college and life!
Increased Physical Aptitude and Fitness
To help children develop physically! The program develops balance, coordination and timing in children. They also increase their speed, stamina and agility, which helps a child in sports and other activities.
High Energy Classes
Fun-filled classes children will truly enjoy! From the children's point of view, the best part about the program is how much fun the classes really are. We focus the child's energy in a positive and productive manner.
Realistic Self-Defense Skills
That could save a child's life! While we all wish it weren't a factor in our society, the fact remains that we live in a world full of undesirable people. Children don't get a false sense of reality by learning how to be victorious in competition. This program teaches children how to protect themselves in real life threatening situations. This invaluable skill could be the difference between life and death!
Personalized Attention
To ensure rapid progress! We focus on quality instruction and personal attention. Our students are treated as individuals. All of our classes are taught by a highly trained instructor committed to excellence and continued learning. You'll feel safe knowing your child is receiving the finest instruction possible!

KARATEINSPIRING CONFINDENCE INKIDS
I just want to start out by saying how incredibly wonderful your Karate class has been. Your patience and good humor with the kids is a trait that I wish more of us could have. My husband and I have been looking for a class and a teacher that would be good for Nicholas, and we are happy to finally have found it. He tried gymnastics, but the kids had to sit and wait so long that they lost focus. Anyway, I am so thankful to have found this class and wanted to tell you about it.

I have been thrilled with the program! Harris has been slow to participate in after-school programs & sports, but he loves karate. The uniform and the belt system have kept his interest high. Instructors are superb. They have the ability to capture and keep every child's attention. They are both very positive and encouraging. I love this opportunity and I hope Harris will continue for many more years. I'm also looking forward to a class for my daughter.

Our camp is for you .... Karate kids or beginners, ages 5 - 11
** Experience not necessary and beginners are welcome!
What's so special about our camp?
Our camp counselors are all Instructors who have been training and working with children for many years. These enthusiastic and skilled counselors understand how to be great role models to your children, and each do an excellent job of helping teach great karate in a fun, memorable summer camp setting.
• Five themed days of karate training and all-out fun!!!
• Each student receives 10 class credits that count directly towards belts and stripes.
Enrolled students may also attend their regular classes each day (if they have
enough energy!)
• We'll play lots of games, and have a special activity each day (i.e. board breaking,
flying side kicks, art projects, tournaments, etc.). At the end of camp, each camper
receives a special award selected by the junior counselors.
How can you get started...
Campers wear their uniform and belt, and bring loose, comfortable clothes and sparring gear each day (campers who don't take karate yet will need to purchase a white uniform beforehand). Camp runs from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. the cost is $150 per session. A $50.00 deposit holds your child's spot with the balance due before the start of camp.
Come join our world-class staff and find out why so many kids come back for more! Hope to see you there. It's great fun, and the best possible way to train intensively and effectively.
Call Today
Since getting Christian involved a couple of years ago, then joining myself, I have on occasion poked my nose into a couple of other schools and spoke to thier owners -- hands down I was not impressed -- only because I was comparing it to yours. The energy and tireless work that you've invested is obvious, and your enthusiasm for what you're doing carries the rest of the day. I'm glad my intro to the lifestyle (not just the sport) was through your leadership and training. It's something I have wanted to try for years.
To help them succeed in life! K.I.C.K. will teach the child how to set goals and take responsibility for their own actions. These qualities, more than any others, will help the child develop as a leader and not as a follower. This, in turn, will ensure their success in school, college and life!
