The Karate programs at Meibukan Newmarket Karate is based on centuries old training techniques.
All our training is in a family friendly atmosphere and parents can train along side their children. To maximize training for our students, the class is split according to age for physical drill training.
As Master Meitatsu Yagi says, we teach "how not to fight"
Our Youth (5-13) group focus on awareness and reaction time, to avoid potentially dangerous situations.
Basic stances, kicks and blocks develop increased confidence in self defense techniques with the goal of making these "second nature". Ippon Kumite help develop timing and distancing and greatly reduces the "shock factor" with being confronted in the school yard. This confidence and calmness will redirect the bully to look for easier pray. The real secret in Karate is the kata ( a predetermined sequence of techniques, sometime referred to as "forms" in English ).
All this in a fun packed class!!
Our Adult group builds on the fundamentals as described in the youth group above. As one progresses through the belt system there is increased emphasis on one's ability to harness both physical and mental strength to maximize effectiveness while conserving energy. This sounds unbelievable, but is remarkably easy to understand.
