Karate for Kids of All Levels – Join Watford &  Luton’s Shotokan JKA Children’s Program

In our children’s JKA Shotokan karate classes, we teach kids as young as four years old karate in a way that helps to develop focus, discipline, coordination, and other important life skills in a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. We teach in an age-appropriate manner. Hence, every child learns while boosting their confidence and learning to respect others. Our instructors help every child learn the basic karate skills to enable physical and mental growth.

Shotokan JKA is glad to have begun teaching Kid’s shotokan karate classes in Watford & Luton with highly trained black belt instructors. All children, regardless of age or skill level, can be taught in a constructive environment.

In our classes, every child—whether spirited, shy, or a blend of both—will acquire self-control, exercise, healthy interaction including teamwork, and emotional control. Provided your child receives appropriate support, they can begin to appreciate the advantages of traditional Shotokan Karate. So, enrolling them today would be a fantastic first step.
