At The Dojo we have a unique system of teaching children Martial Arts, we teach them physical skills like punching, kicking and self-defence but we don`t stop there.

Our classes are fun and we work with parents to help improve your child’s behaviour at home and in school using a unique homework chart.  We also focus on manners, anger management, non-violent conflict resolution, goal setting, public speaking and team building.

We call this approach to balancing education and technique, an `education based curriculum.` This rests on a foundation of education above tradition, technique, or country of origin.
