Kinder Karate- ages 4 to 6 years old
This class is specially designed for younger children. Through songs, plyometric drills and exercises we help to develop balance, coordination, self discipline, as well as motor skills. The structure of this class will help to develop the attention span, self confidence, and learning to work with each other as well as in a group. We will introduce them to the basics of karate, as well as the Japanese language and culture during this class.
