About Karate Classes for Kids

What We’re About

At OSK Academy, karate isn’t just a hobby for your child - it’s a way to grow. I’ve spent decades teaching Okinawa Shorin-Ryu Karate, and I see every class as a chance for kids to build confidence and learn real self-defense. This is proper martial arts, not just playtime.

How Kids Change Here

• Confidence goes up, especially when they tackle new moves or tough drills.
• Discipline and focus become habits - not just in the dojo, but at home and school too.
• We teach practical self-defense, so your child knows what to do if needed.
• Classes are active, fun, and push for better fitness, strength, and flexibility.

Our Style of Training

Curriculum is a mix of tradition and sport. Kids learn kata (classic forms), kumite (safe karate sparring for kids with gear), and agility drills. I keep it strict, but also supportive and lively - shouting “Kiai!” and letting kids feel that rush.

• Belt progression is clear - every kid starts as a white belt, aiming for black. We run proper grading exams so they earn their next level honestly.
• Summer camps get intense, with sessions on karate, weapons, and even some acrobatics.
• Those keen on competition get prepped for inter-school and national events.

Who Can Join

We welcome boys and girls from age 4 up. There are special batches for tiny tots too. Weekday and weekend options make it easy for parents. If you want your kid to experience karate for self-esteem in children or just a solid after-school karate program for kids, this is it.
