Classes
Children Classes
Devoted to developing our children mentally and physically. First they will learn physical fitness exercises, which are followed by basic self-defense and karate techniques. The program is very safe with an emphasis on respect, discipline and controlled practice. Beginners are taught for 50 minutes and advanced children for one hour and a half. Because of the care it takes to give the children proper instruction, there are at least two instructors at each class. The recommend age for children starting karate lessons at the Isshinryu Karate Academy is 7-11 years old.
Tuesdays 6pm - 7:30pm
Saturdays 10am - 11:30pm
Adult Classes
Monday classes are for all levels of students, with the class emphasis on basic techniques, kata and self-defense. The pace is a bit faster during this class. Wednesday is devoted to beginners to help them with basic techniques. More time is taken going over various moves, positions and transitions. The pace is not quite as fast as on Monday's class, with the emphasis on strong techniques.
