Our kids class (Pre-Explosion) duing charts

Our children's Isshinryu Karate class on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 5:30 - 6:30 have really exploded since the Halloween party and is growing weekly. Chiefly instructed by Master McMahan and assisted by our other black belts Brandon McMahan 4th,Anthony Ramano 3rd, Kevin Gentry 2nd, Robert Parsons and Mike Scarbrough 1st degree's.  Focus on exercise and stretching through running our charts and then we work individually and as a class on learning our katas which teach much more than fighting technique, but teach our children discipline and that to learn something and do it well you must keep trying and practicing and Most of all YOU CAN DO IT!  We are all rewarded ask we bask in their self pride when they achieve a new goal each week.

Our children's sparring class on Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30 - 6:30 pm teach our children how to protect themselves when necessary against those who would wish them harm but we also teach them that this is a sport where excessive force is not rewarded, but rather control of that force. The children do learn alot but mostly they just enjoy competing with their peers and the thrills of winning and of course they love all the cheering as well.
