Karate offers a great whole-body workout comparable to cardio kickboxing. However, it is far superior because students tend
to pursue Karate training for years, while kick aerobics students usually stay only for a few months. Karate engages its
practitioner not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually as well. While reaching fitness goals, students develop
discipline, focus, practical self-defense, flexibility and self-control. Each one hour, fifteen minute class session provides:
Over 20 minutes of low impact cardio exercises
Stretching to increase flexibility
Strengthening exercises
Two short meditation periods
Muscle toning through basic training in stances, kicking and striking
Variety - classes led by several black belts provide a dynamic and varied learning environment.
An investigation of the application of martial techniques.
Mental conditioning - learning how to control and channel your energy
Challenges - Because martial arts are so deep, there is always something more to learn.
Community - studying karate is an interactive process that builds a great sense of community among students,
where peer recognition and support are priceless in helping you stick to your goals and improve your abilities.
Fun, excitement and personal growth.
You'll find that the inherent challenges in perfecting your karate form provide endless opportunities for learning, conditioning and
overall personal well-being.
