Typical Class Breakdown

The Junior Advanced class is reserved for the students who have obtained a purple belt or higher. This martial art and self-defense program is a continuation and evolution of the training received in the Junior Beginners program. In this higher level of instruction, martial arts and self-defense fundamentals are reviewed and expanded upon. Our instructors introduce new approaches that combine with your child’s prior lessons to guide them through the next phase of their Karate journey.

Now that students have fundamental skills established, they are encouraged to grow in new ways, such as increasing their speed, power, and fluidity. During this stage of martial art instruction, we take students from structured, choreographed methods of Karate training to a reactionary, improvisational approach that prepares them for the realistic self-defense situations they are most likely to encounter.
