Learn the very effective and explosive art of RyuTe Kempo Karate in our adult and teen martial arts classes. You will feel more fit, confident and fun every time you step onto the dojo floor.
The classes are divided by skill level, so you will always feel comfortable learning with people who are at the same level you are. All our teen and adult programs are taught by Kyoshi Polander as well as one of our senior Black Belt Instructors. Plus, Kyoshi insists on having an additional instructor on the floor so that he can spend time with students who need his personal help.
We designed our beginners program so that as your skills develop, your body will develop the agility, balance and flexibility you need in order to move to the next belt level. You will find yourself with increased flexibility, strength, balance and endurance. Each class gives you a solid work out and the punches and kicks you will be throwing, will help to reduce your stress level. You’ll also find that learning self-defense techniques will give you confidence you need not only at the dojo but in every aspect of your life. The self-discipline you develop in the dojo will help you succeed at work, at school and in your personal life.
Once your body and your mind are ready, you will begin to explore the ancient self-defense techniques that our style offers you. It is truly a unique traditional system that teaches you how to find your opponent’s weaknesses and teaches you how to control that person by applying pressure to nerves, joints and muscles; what we call Tuite Jitsu.
The striking techniques in RyuTe® are all about precision not strength. When these strikes are used against the vital points of someone’s nervous system, you will disable them no matter how big or how strong they are. These techniques are known as Kyusho Jitsu.
The speed and power of your karate movement will develop as you master the karate forms called “kata”; prearranged patterns of movements also known as “fighting with a shadow”. There is a hidden purpose of each form and by constantly perfecting your kata, you will achieve not only muscle memory but you will also begin to appreciate the hidden techniques behind them.
As your knowledge of RyuTe Kempo techniques develops, we will give you the opportunity to learn how to master a variety of martial arts weapons such as bō, jō, sai, manji sai, nūnti bō, eikū, nūnchakū, tanbō, chizikūnbō, kama and tōnfa. As your skill with weapons develops, you will begin to understand how weapons work hand in hand with our “empty hands techniques”. This combination of weapons skill and karate skill is what binds you to the ancient tradition you will carry with you for the rest of your life.
If you ready for your Martial Arts adventure – there is no better place to start!
