PeeWee Karate

Classes are for 4 - 7 year olds. Our program is designed to provide the
following:

* a slightly less formal program than Kids Karate;

* a fun yet structured environment;

* educational games;

* reflex training;

* balance training;

* hand-eye co-ordination training;

* bag work; and

* introduction to light sparring.

Emphasis is on instilling respect, good manners, developing character and
having fun. There is an informal grading conducted every two months with the
whole PeeWee program designed to run for two years.

Following a grading, students receive a coloured stripe belt i.e. white, yellow,
orange, green, blue, purple, red, 1st brown, 2nd brown and finally black stripe.
Once a student reaches Black Stripe (the highest level in this program), they
can enroll in the 'full' Funakoshi Karate system - Kids Karate.
