East Coast Karate is amazing for young children. Our classes for students ages 4 to 7 have been specifically designed to meet both the physical & mental needs of growing children.

Imagine a room… filled with happy, highly motivated, energetic children. They’re having fun and learning skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. This is what our four to seven year old children’s martial arts Program can do for your child. Best of all, they do not see this as learning, they see it as play, because every one of our classes is filled with fun and excitement.

Shihan Michael Pinelli incorporates the ethics, moral integrity and martial art techniques he’s acquired from a lifetimes of experience into this unique, age-specific martial art program.

At East Coast Karate, every child participates

In many conventional sports there are always some children who do very well, and others who struggle. We have a slogan, “there are no bench warmers in our school.” Every child excels in this program, developing their confidence in the process, so that they will be able to deal with any situation life presents to them.

Our Belt Reward System improves children’s self-esteem

At East Coast Karate, we do not take belt promotion lightly. We do everything in our power to teach students to be patient, determined, and goal oriented, so when they do earn their belts, they feel a great sense of accomplishment that really boosts their confidence and self esteem.

Our “Tigers” Kenpo Karate Program teaches children discipline

Our amazing, highly trained staff of patient instructors love to work with children. We enforce good rules of behavior in class, and we expect the same kind of behavior at home and in school. This is not your garden-variety program, filled with empty creeds and sayings that the students do not take to heart. Our ultimate goal is to help you raise children that are unstoppable in everything they attempt.

Our children’s program is specifically designed for ages four to seven years old. We have developed methods to capture children’s imaginations while teaching them skills that will change their lives forever.
