A Great Place to Learn Kenpo - Kenpo Orphans Welcome!

Sacramento Kenpo Karate is a very warm and friendly school teaching the art of self-defense. It's a great place for women to feel safe and for men to smack the heck out of each other, if that's what they want. The men can feel safe too. :)

In the DOJO

            Children class is moving along pretty steady.  We have a great bunch of kids.  I really appreciate their patience and hard work.  I realize they are all trying very hard to get stripes and promoted.  Speaking of stripes, remember, we are allowing only one stripe a week.  I am thinking of adding a stripe for learning how to tie your own belt; no more blaming the parents. 

            Adult class is becoming very colorful.  We miss that.  All colors except yellow are currently being represented.  Remember to show up at 7:15 to get your warm-up in before class begins.  If you know anyone whether, a beginner or an 'orphan' feel free to bring them by so they can experience a friendly atmosphere and still learn how to 'move the meat bag'.  We would love to have more adults in class.  So get the word out.  To all of the adults who are helping to teach, we would like to say Thank You!!!  See you at the gym…
