Programs
West Side Jin Sei Ryu offers both a kids karate program and an adult karate program.
Kids Program
In our kids program, your child can participate in age-specific classes:
- Pee Wees (4 – 5yo)
- Juniors (6 – 8yo)
- Youth (9 – 14yo)
Each class focuses on different aspects of development that will help your child in other areas of life. In addition to strength, stamina, balance, and speed, we build confidence, discipline, and self respect.
It is more important than ever that we must continue to find ways to keep our children active, healthy, and engaged. West Side Jin Sei Ryu Karate-Do offers a comprehensive program that will keep your child focused and fit in a fun and safe way. We offer classes at our West Side 63rd street Dojo and our Manhattan Studio’s on 55th and 72nd St. We now have classes with the Ethical Culture Center after school Program also located at 63rd street. Our new program at P.S.199 on 70th street on the upper west side is going great. In Brooklyn we offer our Windsor Terrace Dojo located on Windsor Place and our after school program at P.S.154. We will continue our park training events in Central Park and Prospect Park, weather permitting. Please see our Class Schedule for more information, or contact Shuseki Shihan Mel Ramsey at shihanmr14@gmail.com with any additional questions you may have.
