Imagine how your calm, relaxed self-confident smile and control magnetically draw people to you. You find friends and family want to spend more time with you as they seem to enjoy and respect you more. You notice more people smiling with you, even perfect strangers!
Join us on the pathway between self perfection and self defense? Some take a short journey, for others traditional Okinawan Karate becomes a life journey as we continually explore the depths of this self defense art and ourselves. No matter how crazy things get in your life, you can always return to this stable, welcoming environment to improve and maintain your physical and mental stability as the world's up and downs revolve around you. The natural, easy to learn, body movements of Okinawan Masters quickly results in boosting self defense skills as you begin the self improvement journey. You polish physical techniques in a cooperative, non-confrontational learning environment in our small classes. As you discover how to simultaneously polish your inner self you also surprisingly uncover unrealized self confidence and control to help you make your dreams reality.
Members report reduced stress, weight loss, improved self confidence, better sleep, and a dramatic boost in self control. Members say they discover a camaraderie with this small group of adult professionals seldom found in their lifetimes and they realize they can laugh along with the rest of us at our often crazy life challenges.
You will be amazed to see our big strong macho men's techniques' easily controlled by our smaller women members. Practice determines your skilled performance in Okinawan self defense Karate rather than strength or size. And everyone smiles and laughs while having a good time in our relaxed environment!
If you are ready to take control of your life, or just want to see how we do this, come visit, or join us for a free trial class. You will have no pressure to sign you to a multi year million dollar contract as there are no contracts. Our interest is only in sharing with others in the community who may enjoy this environment and have as much fun together as we have while improving our authentic traditional Okinawan Karate.
Find us in the gym at Christian Center School, 5411 Franconia Rd., Alexandria, VA 22310 on Mondays and Thursdays at 7:00 pm and Saturdays at 9:30 am for one-hour classes. Many students often stay longer to practice, talk or laugh. Visit: www.okinawankaratealexandria.com
If you want to compete, or dominate other students, or do a double tornado flying back kick, keep looking as there are karate schools happy to take your money. We practice self defense karate and most of our natural, easy to learn techniques and targets fall outside those allowed in tournaments.
