about the following programs:
In the children’s martial arts classes at Doshi-Kai, students learn traditional Shotokan Karate, as well as develop the personal benefits of martial arts including self control, discipline, respect and focus. Our children’s classes are tailored specifically not just to their experience with martial arts, but to the respective physical, intellectual, social and emotional stages of development of each age group.
Regular youth karate classes take place on Monday’s – Thursdays, and are broken down by age and belt rank. The breakdown of our classes are as follows:
- Mini Skillz: 1.5 Years – 2 Years with Parent
- Tiny Tigers: Martial Arts for 3-4 Year Olds
- Basic Skillz: 5-6 Year Olds
- Core Skillz: 7-9 Year Olds
- Intermediate Martial Arts / 10 Years+
- Advanced Martial Arts, all ages
Students 7+ are also invited to join on our competition team Team AIKA, which competes primarily in the New England IPPONE League. Additionally, students are invited to participate in various special programs. These programs occur throughout the year and include children’s self-defense, teen self-defense, weapons, family fitness and more.
Classes are taught by instructor team Rich Borges and Katie Jordan, two life-long martial artists who have a combined 40+ years of teaching children’s martial arts, as well as several other programs. Learn more about Sensei Rich and Sensei Katie on our instructors page!
