Youth Martial Arts Kempo Style
Kempo is a style of martial arts that incorporates hands and feet equally (50/50). Kempo has a number of forms with a unique characteristic of having circular and linear movements.This gives the style the versatility to be considered hard and soft at the same time.
The Main Emphasis of this martial arts program is for the kids, the 'cub tigers', to enjoy and have fun by means of integrating skills and activities that enhance coordination, agility, balance, and have a cardio workout. In addition, the 'cub tigers' will be learning basic self-defense skills, in conjunction with values such as honesty, respect, responsibility, and discipline.
