KIDS KARATE CLASSES

SELF DEFENSE AND FITNESS FOR KIDS AGES 3 1/2 AND UP!

Our Kids Karate program is a combination of Western Boxing, American Kickboxing and American Kenpo Karate. Our program is not just another activity, it's not just another sport, it's a priceless, life-changing experience. Our Kids Karate classes are good, clean fun and a great way to give kids a head start on life. At American Black Belt Academy in Massapequa Park, we  teach the most modern and practical ways for a child to protect themselves. Our classes are self-defense based and teach your real-world skills. We do not teach our students based around the rules of a sport. Students will learn the positive benefits of self-discipline, confidence, coordination development, self-defense and increased strength and flexibility. Because a structure of respect is built into our Kids Karate program, children develop the ability to listen, learn and achieve within a highly regulated environment. This proves to be an excellent reinforcement of study techniques for school. We also offer after school Martial Arts childcare!

WE ARE NOT YOUR AVERAGE KARATE SCHOOL…

Head instructor Tom Lo Varco is a 9th Degree Black Belt and the Vice President of the Worldwide Kenpo Karate Association. To learn more about Tom and the rest of his staff, please click here.


Here is what a physical education teacher (Tom Fiorentine) from Grace Day school had to say after Mr. LoVarco visited and gave a class:


"What impressed me most about Tom LoVarco was his ability to work with children. He is soft-spoken while at the same time he demands the attention of his students. It was interesting to see how our more talkative students were most attentive during the lesson and how our less coordinated students were able to move through the exercises with confidence and ease - a solid building block of self-esteem."


Confidence, focus, discipline, tenacity and the ability to stand up for yourself make all the difference in school and in life. American Black Belt Academy gives kids the tools
 to succeed wherever, whenever, forever. 

Why our Kids Karate program vs other styles of Karate?


  • Self-Defense That Really Works – American Kenpo is one of the MOST PRACTICLE STRIKING MARTIAL ARTS because it is very effective for real-life situations. American Kenpo is NOT A SPORT BASED MARTIAL ART. We teach effective self defense strategies that work in the real world. Our students are not taught to defend themselves based on the rules of a sport like many other Martial Arts.


  •   Guaranteed To Build Your Child’s Confidence – Physical self-defense skills are the foundation for confidence. Kids can’t confront bullies if they are afraid of their personal safety.


  • We Teach Your Child When Self-Defense Is Appropriate and When It Is Not – Not only that but it’s also very important for a child to know not only WHAT to do but WHEN to do it. Our program teaches children precisely when they can and cannot, use the techniques they are learning.


  • All classes are A GREAT FORM OF EXERCISE – Everyone knows the numerous physical and mental health benefits of exercise but getting enough of it is difficult for kids in our modern digital society.
