Colorado Springs Martial Arts Classes at Ward’s Family Karate
Adult Martial Arts – Kid’s Karate – Cardio Kickboxing
Adult Karate Classes
Our Adult Karate classes are perfect for anyone who wants to learn multiple styles in a fun and supportive environment. We primarily train in the traditional art of Shotokan Karate. Shotokan is noted for its extremely deep stances and powerful strikes. However, we also draw from other arts so you can learn the best from many styles.
From Jujitsu you will learn many self defense techniques. In your self defense training you will learn to escape from holds of all kinds, and to throw, subdue and restrain your attacker. From Chinese Kung Fu, you’ll learn to redirect force and to use an attackers force against him. While our base art of Shotokan karate emphasizes low kicks, the high kicks of TaeKwonDo are great exercise. In addition to our Kabuto training in traditional Okinawan weapons you will also train in the art of modern Arnis.
The combination of these arts help produce an extremely fit body. You will have the opportunity to earn rank in this art. If you are diligent, persistent, and possess a strong spirit, then you may even obtain the rank of black belt.
Kid’s Karate Classes
Perhaps the most important things that we teach are not the physical things. Children in our martial arts programs also learn courtesy, self discipline, perseverance, and patience. These are skills your child will use every day of their life, whether in the dojo, at home, or at school.
In addition, we teach kids valuable conflict resolution skills. While learning self-defense certainly is great for a child’s confidence, it’s much more important to Sensei Ward that his younger students learn how to avoid violence and get along with other. Martial arts provides a fantastic environment for kids to learn interpersonal skills and verbal self-defense. Rather than promoting violence, we teach kids how to be at peace with others.
Finally, all our younger students participate in our Academic Achievement Program. Students are rewarded for satisfactory academic achievement and are openly praised for getting good grades. This creates an environment where a positive attitude toward school is the accepted norm. Try us for 30 days and you will see your child’s attitude toward school improve dramatically… we guarantee it!
