Adult Classes Added!!

The numbers are in from the pre-registration for the Withrow Park Clubhouse.

I am very pleased to announce that our programs have been filling up quickly. Our kids class has reached the maximum 25 students, and almost a dozen more on the waiting list. Wow! That's great. I'm so pleased that everyone has been looking forward to coming back to class as much as I have been. And on that note....

I have made arrangements for an Adult class to be added. The Adults program features all the techniques of karate in a more comprehensive manner, beginning with the Self-Defence aspects of the art of Karate-Jutsu. We learning our techniques through drills in which we have the opportunity to experience first hand how karate really works.

These Defensive Tactics courses are offered in 9 week sessions. All the techniques are from karate, with a real world application derived from my day job as a Security Guard and Manager. It is truly fighting without hurting anyone. Our DT program is comprised of 5 courses each with its own specific focus, that I will be introducing one at a time through out the sessions. Each course is a stand alone and separate entity, while working hand in hand with the other parts of the program.

All the classes are aimed at the beginners experience level and is equally adaptable for Teens, Young adults, and Adults alike. Anyone with more experience will also find the simple and effective tactics used challenging without being complicated, allowing for a more athletic workout. While all the techniques do serve a purpose of defence, these classes are for us to experience the art of karate for the love of the thing itself. Yes, you will become more competent at pressured and violent situational response, but more than that, you will experience this unique and wonderful martial art in a fun and realistic manner. The people that love karate, do it for more reasons than learning to fight, and that is what we are focusing on through these self-defence sessions.

We welcome all who wish to get involved, please call to sign up.
