We enrolled him hoping karate would help with his mental focus and overall health. It has done wonders. We've also seen huge benefits in his self-confidence, core strength, and stretching flexibility. What we didn't expect is that Master Randall is such a great mentor for the kids. He often adds short stories in the middle of classes with moral messages; having the kids participate and building their social skills. These classes can help your child develop into a better athlete and a better person.

Respect for parents, teachers, others, and very importantly... yourself. His instruction and specific pointers on how to deal with bullies certainly elevates the students confidence; which helps ward of bullies. My son was three when he started the Knee High Samaria classes. At first he would stay with the class for a couple minutes, then rush over to Mommy and Daddy on the sideline. Kyoshi said to be patient and that he would get it. Within a month and a half he was fully into and enjoying the class. His confidence and self discipline have soared. My hat is off to Kyohshi. He is great with kids. Again, it is not just about learning karate, it's the life lessons and messages that make the National Karate Institute valuable for students and parents. Thank you Kyoshi!
