According to many resources, children are exposed more and more everyday to violence from the media
as well as movies and real life. Children spend 80% of their time outside of school. 94% of the U.S. voters think that
it would be better if children and teens are included in after-school activities that allow them to learn and experience new
things. Do you Agree? Email us your thoughts!

S.M.A.R.T. KIDS (Safe Martial Arts Response Training) is
a program written by Al Martin Sensei in 1995 and used by his organization of Martial Art INSTRUCTORS that want to help make
sure ALL children are safe. The people who are part of SMART KIDS are working every day to see to it that every child in every
community and town learns how to protect themselves. There could even be a SMART KIDS program already in your town!! The SMART
KIDS program will be spreading all across America and Canada. You might want to ask your parents to help you find out where the closest one to you
is.
Our Focus Program
Karate Incorporated's Focus program was created after recognizing the need for an alternative way for families
to have their children taught the martial arts and other Safety skills, Life skills, and Stranger Awareness skills not focused
on in most Karate school environments.
Our Instructors go to your child's school, day care or pre-school facility or after-school program to teach our age
appropriate programs in an atmosphere already familiar and comfortable to the child.
Different age groups develop at different levels, so our children's programs are based on age specific curriculums
that emphasize focus, balance, and hand and eye coordination, listening, following directions, life skills, respect and discipline,
along with basic martial arts training.
Children learn and retain information by way of repetition and positive reinforcement, all of which are incorporated
in our programs.
Best of all, there is no need to make special arrangements or
rush your child to a martial arts class after work. We bring the class to your child.
Our S.M.A.R.T
Kids program focuses on peer pressure, bullies, daily stress, Stranger Awareness and all the values needed to deal with potential
problem or situations that children may have to deal with, while still maintaining respect for their selves; and their
decisions.
