General Info
Karate has many benefits that can be seen in our students such as: fitness, coordination and discipline but it also provides a fantastic platform for building character and unleashing potential whilst learning new skills.
Resilience, resourcefulness and decision-making may not be immediately evident but reinforcing politeness and good manners in a collaborative and safe environment is a daily practice. Building self-confidence and respect for yourself and others is just as important to us as self-defense.
It has been said that there are over 600 muscles in the Human body and all of these can be used in a Karate session burning over a 1000 calories all whilst increasing core strength, posture and flexibility.
Children especially benefit from developing a host of skills that help outside the karate training including listening skills; hand-eye coordination, memory and focus, socialization, goal setting, speed, agility and balance. Our students have gone on to achieve fantastic results academically.
Safety is key to our training we provide a family friendly environment for all to succeed. Training will provide quality time and a shared experience with your children unlike any other should you wish.
