Why We’re Different
Our program is built upon principles of Karate-do, focusing on: character development, self-defense and physical fitness.
We do not believe in charging additional fees for belts and testing. A promotion to the next rank is a reflection of the achievements of the student. We sell transformations, not belts.
We are proponents of the concept of “pressure testing” at the appropriate intensity based on rank and skill-level to ensure the self-defense techniques we practice are effective against a resisting opponent.
“Traditional” elements of Karate-do, including kata and weapons training are not required for rank progressions. They are however a great adjunct to our regular training, plus they are a lot of fun!
