Adults focus on aspects of the martial arts from basic karate skills, flexibility, and muscular and cardiovascular development to the study of kata (forms), self-defense, sparring, and weaponry. We strive to keep our martial arts system contemporary and useful to today's unique needs and demands
Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan is the only Karate System in the world that has a full comprehensive weaponry system as an important part of the system as a whole. Ryukyu Kobudo Weaponry has its own separate ranking system and students can get their Black Belt certification directly from Okinawa.
The younger levels of junior students study the Universal System. The Universal System has been specially designed by educators and child psychologists to introduce Shorin-Ryu Karate to younger students. Universal Juniors learn the same basic karate techniques including kata, self-defense, and sparring in a fun way kids really enjoy. Classes also build coordination, discipline, and self-confidence!
Little Dragons are the youngest level of training at AMAI. Martial Arts Skills, Safety Skills, and Life Skills are taught to prepare children for the Junior level classes. This course I refer to as a foundational course. This means we work on very basic kids’ karate drills and socialization skills to prepare them for the next level which is to graduate into the Universal Shorin-Ryu program. This class is taught in 8-week classes with a month break between sessions.
The FSP is an easy and economical way for Juniors and Adults to get started in Karate. You will receive 2 private lessons, a uniform and a class to try.
