Little
Dragons ~ Ages 3 1/2 to 6
This is a great starter program for younger kids. Classes are fast
paced and filled with skill building drills and games to make the teaming fun.
Karate basics and self-defense are taught but special emphasis is put on skills
development in the following areas: Focus Teamwork Control Balance Memory
Discipline Fitness Coordination Skills leaned here will prep them for the more
criteria driven Kid Kicks Programs. The Little Dragon's program will help build
their confidence and socialization skills which will help as they progress to
their early school years. The physical portion of this program will also help
the children in sports other than karate.
Family
Karate ~ Ages 7+
This program focuses on many of the same skills as Little Dragons but
as the children age, their coordination and attention span improves so we move
into a more criteria driven program with more emphasis on kicks, punches,
self-defense, kata and sparring. Drills and karate games are used to enhance
skills.
This program picks up the pace with the emphasis on developing strong
martial arts skills as well as teaming our Principles of Black Belt: Modesty,
Courtesy, Integrity, Self Control, Perseverance and Indomitable Spirit.
Teens and Adults
Karate ~ Ages 14+
Here we focus on striking, blocking, kata, stress-relief, personal
fitness and solid self-defense skills. You have the benefit of going at your own
pace but with the support of you classmates. Creating an 'I can do it' attitude
is a big part of this program.
Open
Classes
Promar Karate offers several Open Classes per week. This allows siblings,
parents and children of varying age and skill level to train together.
The
family that kicks together sticks together.
Private
Lessons
There are two types of private lesson systems.
Individual Lessons
Students may take an occasional private lesson to supplement their group
class training or to catch up after an unplanned absence.
Full-time Private Instruction
This is our newest program and great for busy people, shift workers and
people who want to learn quickly. Students learn 4 to 9 times faster with
private lessons. This full-time program gives a student 50 private lessons a
year and includes karate group classes. (Weapons and Judo/jujitsu programs not
included.)
For maximum benefit we recommend that students take one private
lesson per week, however, you can schedule around your busy life. If you go on
vacation for two weeks you don't lose your lessons, you just double up in the
weeks before you go or after you get back.
Benefits of private lessons are:
1)-Faster progress, more detailed progress. Try one private lesson. You'll
see how efficient they are.
2) Flexibility of scheduling. This is great for shift workers and busy people.
Private lessons can be done during the day, evening or weekend.
3) Family plans. Family members can be added to your private lesson program
for a nominal fee.
4) Group karate classes are included free with our full year private lesson
program.
5)Your progress can be accelerated by upgrading to a private lesson program
that goes to 100 lessons per year.
6) Great for conditioning at your own pace. 7-Private classes are wonderful
for shy people who feel self-conscious working in a group. Interested? Try a
lesson and see if private instruction is for you.
