The below is an overview of the various types of classes that we offer here at All American Karate in Orange City, Florida. We offer a variety of classes suitable for ages 4 years to adult. We will also have special event classes in addition to our regularly scheduled classes, be sure to follow our Facebook Page to keep up on the latest news from us.
Lil' dragons
Geared towards ages 4 to 6 years old. Your "lil' dragon" will be learning the American Kenpo and Isshinryu styles at an age appropriate pace with plenty of repetition and lots of fun. At the end of each class, your child will play physical games and run obstacle courses to test their balance, strength, agility, and listening skills.
american kenpo
Students will learn how to defend themselves using practical self defense through body manipulation and body mechanics. They will learn basic blocks, stances, strikes, and kicks to help them perform each technique properly. Each belt learns a set of these defense techniques for each belt all the way up to black belt.
isshinryu karate
Students will learn how to use proper body mechanics to perform basics such as blocking, kicking, striking, and learning how to do different stances. Once basics are learned correctly, instructors will train the students to perform different katas (forms) to get their black belt. A set of drills and a form will be learned for each belt.
additional classes:
Sparring Classes:
We will also have sparring classes which will take all the basic movements from Kenpo and Isshinryu and put them all together to teach the students how to fight using light contact and control. Each student will wear pads on their hands, chest, feat and headgear to help protect them while learning to spar.
Weapons Classes:
We will be having weapons classes as well. We have bo (staff), kamas, and sword classes that will teach each student how to do basics that will eventually be put into a form. They will also get the opportunity to learn flashy tricks, spins, and releases. Students will be able to take different weapons classes with the approval of the instructors based on skill, preparedness and belt rank.
Breaking classes:
We will soon be starting a breaking class! More information on this to come.
