The children’s Karate program stresses kicking and punching combinations, escapes and counter techniques, helping children improve speed, precision, agility & self-confidence.
The bully-proofing program teaches children to assertively stand-up to the bully and if the bullying persists, bring the bully to the ground, establish ground control and negotiate peace without hurting or striking the bully.
