Children's classes are for students ages 6 - 12. Tenshkinkai Karate is perfect for children for several reasons. First of all, this is a martial art in the true sense of the term. Internal as well as physical strength is developed, and students are taught the principles of respect, discipline an harmony. Secondly, this style does not rely on raw power to be effectively- safety and control is stressed at all times. Your child will be guaranteed instruction that does not promote street fighting and encourage them to grow and learn.
Ages 6-12
Monday and Wednesday: 3:45 p.m. - 4:45 p.m.
