Description
Shorin-Ryu Karate for Adults
Adult Karate is a two fold class, devoted to introducing Adults to Shorin Ryu Karate as well as providing a teaching and learning environment to our Brown and Black Belts. Study for the adults will start with an introduction to basic karate etiquette, terminology, blocks, punches, kicks, and stances, kicking techniques, stretching and exercise, basic routines and of course an introduction to our Kata/Forms. With 21 Kata Forms, students have a number of years to be introduced to and learn to perform these historical self defense systems over the next few years as they move up in ability and knowledge.
For our instructors, as well as our Brown and Black Belts, we will look in depth at our curriculum and including self-defense, Yakusoto kumite and kumite drills, Kata presentation, interpretation, and application. The advanced nature of these classes allows this time period to be a training opportunity, an opportunity to have teaching time and advance their own understanding and ability in Karate under the direction of our seasoned instructors, currently, 4th, 5th, and 6th degree black belts themselves who too will be advancing their own Karate.
Classes are Monday & Tuesday nights from 6:30PM until 8PM.
