Family Martial ArtsFamilies who kick together, stick together.
Our family classes bring your loved ones together like never before: positive role models, the fundamentals of self-defence, character development and confidence, side by side.
Not a weekly class. A family tradition.
Family classes are not part of the regular schedule. If you have a child in our class, every once in a while we invite you to join a family class so you can train with your child, and learn how to train with your child effectively at home. Kids and parents love the experience of training together.
The goal is to expose our young students to the example set by all the adults around them. We help everyone have fun taking on new challenges, and we bring you and your loved ones closer together. Family classes suit all experience levels and athletic abilities, with hands-on instruction throughout.
You and your family can enjoy:
- A great source of exercise
- Physical, emotional and mental development
- A way to build confidence in all aspects of life
- An exciting experience for you and your loved ones
★★★★★Confidence, assertiveness, focus, body literacy, self-defence, leadership, and friendly competition and sportsmanship. These are the qualities we wanted to encourage in our two girls, ages 4 and 7. We chose the Powerhouse for the Sensei's extensive teaching experience (25+ years) and his Shotokan karate program designed specifically for children. Eight months after joining, my youngest, once cling-to-my-leg shy, stands proudly in front of her classmates to lead them through the student creed. My eldest has found confidence and an ability to lead that I had always hoped for her. My husband and I joined the dojo a few months after our kids. We have never been in such good shape!
Parents are welcome in the adult class.
The best way to motivate your child is by leading by example, even if it is just one session a week. Many Powerhouse parents join the teen and adult class a few months after their kids start.
