Calgary J.K.A.Karate is affiliated with Japan Karate Association (JKA), Alberta JKA Karate Association, and Karate Alberta Association.
We offer the following programs:
- Karate for children, teens and adults
- Martial Arts programs for schools
- Self-defence/self-protection for individuals and groups
The word karate is a combination of two Japanese characters: kara, meaning "empty", and te, meaning "hand", thus, karate means "empty hand". Adding the suffix "-do", meaning "way", karate-do implies karate is a total way of life that goes well beyond the self defense applications. In traditional karate-do, we always keep in mind that the true opponent is oneself. Shotokan founder Gichin Funakoshi has said that "mind and technique become one in true
karate."
Karate can be described as a martial art involving a variety of techniques including blocks, strikes, evasions, throws, and joint manipulations. Karate practice is divided into three aspects: kihon (basics), kata (forms), and kumite (sparring).
Airdrie JKA Karate offers quality instruction for people of all ages with training specifically geared to each individual potential. Our aim is to provide our students with a combination of high quality instruction and a friendly atmosphere that any member of the family can enjoy. True karate-do is the trademark of the Airdrie/Calgary KA Karate. We look forward to helping you develop, both mentally and physically, through training in traditional Shotokan Karate.
