The result of true karate is natural, effortless action, and the confidence, humility, openness and peace only possible through perfect unity of mind and body. This is the core teaching of Zen, the basis of Bushido, and our philosophy. Typically this is performance in unison of a technique or a combination of techniques by karateka.

We love Fournier's Karate. They are amazing with the children. My son has been attending classes now for 3 years since he was 4 years old. The confidence and self control he has learned is fantastic.
