Isshinryu Karate

Isshinryu Karate 45266

The Isshinryu Karate class is a legacy program that has been with the Dundee Park District since 1976! This program is designed for anyone interested in learning the fundamental principles of karate. Isshinryu is a traditional Okinawan style of karate that emphasizes self-defense, discipline, and respect for oneself and others. Our experienced instructors, John Shaw and Rick Fryer, guide students through various kicking, punching, and striking techniques, as well as help them develop focus, balance, coordination, and confidence. The class is designed to be fun and engaging, while also instilling important life skills that can be applied both in and outside the dojo. Contractual Classes are divided by age group (ages 4-9,10-16, & 16-Adult) Parents are always invited to observe the children’s classes. Uniforms may be purchased from the instructor. (Otherwise feel free to wear light, comfortable clothing suitable for martial arts practice.)
