My son and I started taking classes at Eastside Family Karate almost 10 years ago. He is now 16 and we are very close. The EFK leadership and training together has been a major factor in building trust in our relationship, in helping us set and meet goals together, and in us having a lot of fun.
With karate I'm not just a driver or a parent cheering from the sideline- I'm interacting directly with my son to train mentally and physically toward a common goal.Karate has been one of the biggest factors in my son staying accountable, learning how to set goals, and working hard even when he wanted to give up.

Our Tiny Tigers program meets once a week for 45 minutes and is a great choice for giving your child a fun start in the martial arts. This program consists of a combination of karate, safety skills, coordination drills and games that set the foundation that will help in basic developmental and physical skills for your 4-6-year-old.
We are very excited that you have decided to join Eastside Family Karate to study Shudokan Karate. This packet of information should answer some of your questions. It is more fun to train in karate if you do it with a friend, and we always appreciate referrals. For that reason, we have a referral program for our students.

Sensei Jim is fun, loves his work, and handles rambunctious children quite well. There're changing areas, a bathroom, cubbies for shoes, legos to pass the time when you're early, and a very quick way to sign in (easy for the kid to do himself) electronically. There's also a seating area inside and outside of the room so you can watch your kid if you'd like.
Bring socks! It's a little chilly if you take your shoes off when inside the karate room.
