Adult Martial Arts Program
Martial Arts training can have a profound effect on improving one’s concentration, discipline, coordination, physical fitness and self confidence. These wide ranging improvements are not just limited to Martial Arts training, but can be easily implemented in daily life, making for a richer, fuller existence. The Adult Karate Program is for people aged 14 and up who are ready to make a serious commitment to Martial Arts training, and the rewards that come with it.

The Focus Martial Arts System
In addition to the curriculum studied in the Adult Karate Program, there will be an additional self defence requirement, which allows students a slow and gradual building upon the basic principles of self protection, bringing new and advanced challenged through each stage of a students development. With each level brings a new and exciting understanding of how students can best implement Martial Arts training in every aspect of their daily lives.
Through the style of karate called Chito-Ryu is taught – which is an old discipline of karate with a strong emphasis on teaching the basic fundamentals of karate, upon which a strong knowledge base is built – these principles will be taught to students. As such, students will have the opportunity to revisit upon learned material every training session, focusing on fun repetitive drills, and building upon knowledge already learned. As the student’s knowledge base continues to grow, focus will gently shift away into new and exciting territory built upon the fundamentals learnt in early lessons, always keeping things new and exciting.
Physical Benefits
As well as the confidence and mental improvements found within the Adult Karate Program, there are a number of physical benefits inherit as well. Firstly, students who participate with a physical activity find they have more energy than those who do not, which can be positively focused into other aspects of their lives; secondly, the physical improvements including improved muscle tone, cardiovascular, reflexes and immune system will make for a more fit, and all around healthier individual; thirdly, and most importantly, a regular fitness routine can lay the groundwork for setting good habits for later on in life.
Our mandatory fitness requirements will help students to improve upon all these areas, while not being as overwhelming as to loose interest. As students progress through each belt level, the fitness requirements increase in small portions, keeping the program within the student’s ability levels, while at the same time encouraging them to push and improve themselves further. Which each step through the curriculum, each student will find new and exciting things about themselves, and through these fun and exciting revelations, improve their confidence so they can move on to tackle whatever challenges life will present them.
