Karate Classes For Kids Aged 4-6

Karate for kids in Winnipeg Karate is a sport that children as young as four can safely get involved with and benefit from.

Charleswood Karate is a place they can make new friends, learn the basics of Shotokan karate, and be encouraged to focus, be respectful to themselves and others, and participate with spirit.

Our “Young Tigers” program is designed for children aged 4-6, once a week for 10 weeks.  Certificates for achievement are provided for discipline, strength, and karate skills.

To register, or for more information, contact Ron Porath at 204-896-3354 or email ron@charleswoodkarate.com

Parents are welcome to watch, and the club provides a seating area to the side to make it comfortable!

Spring Session Begins In April

The Young Tigers program for the spring session will start in April, right after the spring break, and progress for 10 classes.

Children can progress to the more advanced regular youth program designed for those 6-12 years of age after one or more sessions of Young Tigers.

There are currently two class times & dates to choose from:

* Wednesdays, 6pm  to 6:45pm, starting April 11

Mar 10: Stonewall Tournament

Stonewall Karate Club is hosting its 16th Annual Interlake Karate Competition on  March 10th, in Stonewall, Manitoba.

Costs and registration forms for the various events can be found at the dojo, and the registration deadline is March 1, 2012!

Stonewall Tournament Open To All In Shotokan

Sensei Debbie Hinds, Head Instructor of Stonewall Karate Club, has let us know that this year the tournament will be open to all Shotokan Karate organizations in Manitoba, regardless of club or affiliation.

Unlike the IDSL match events we’ve been hosting at our club which are restricted to brown and black belts who train Shotokan karate, the Stonewall tournament is open to competitors of all ages and ranks, and is an excellent opportunity for anyone who trains at Charleswood to try something a little different from our everyday training.

If you’ve never entered a tournament, join us!  You’ll have a lot of fun!
