Junior Classes = Ages 8 – 13 (Taekwondo+)

Beginners (white – blue) Students learn all the basic Taekwondo Karate kicks and punches and learn basic forms/techniques. All our students have lots of fun and learn how to be better in karate and in life. Island Martial Arts holds regular promotion boards where students will show parents what they’ve learned and achieve new belt-tips and advanced belts. The Karate Masters and Instructors also review all the younger kids’ regular school report cards! The students are rewarded for a job well done (and encouraged to do better if needed). Bully awareness and conflict resolution. Learn better focus and discipline. We also like to expose students to some of the other Martial Arts Styles at the Junior Level.
