Little Dragons

Our Little Dragons program is specially designed to engage and inspire 5 to 8 year olds. Using skill based games, obstacle courses and simple movements like rolls and tumbles, kids learn basic karate techniques and develop their movement and coordination. We also teach kids age-appropriate self-defence skills, such as the importance of not wandering off on their own.

But the best part of karate is not any kick, strike or block. The most powerful skills we teach are those of resilience, self-control, positive attitude and respect for self and others. These skills build strong foundations for success at school and beyond.
