Jacob's first experience with karate. We have heard amazing things about what karate can do for a child through consistent discipline. So we decided to see what it could offer for Jacob. Our friends and spiritual mentors the Driscoll family lead us to Karate America from previous experience with there own son. We got in under a great special 6 weeks for $69. Which we were going to use as a great trial for a time for Jacob to discover if this is something he has a passion for.
Our first consultation they greeted us at the door by our names and approached Jacob and shook his hand asked him if he was ready and lead us to a place to fill out paper work and first spoke with me about what I wanted to get out of this for Jacob and then personally addressed Jacob about what there expectations were of him not only there at the gym but when he is at home the proper respect to show his parents, family , and friends.
We were returning the next day for his actual class but he wanted to stay and watch the older class. He kept smiling when they would do something really cool.

The next day he was ready for his turn at it, he was nervous but walked out there like a champ. Was given his spot and was afraid to move from it! They learned some stances, splits, had to run 7 laps, and do 22 push ups. His daddy and I were there watching the whole time and had a good feeling about his future fun there:)
