Tiger Martial Arts

Japanese Karate

The term “Karate” literary means “empty hand”, one’s ability to defend oneself without a weapon. Millions of people around the world enjoy studying the art of Karate. Some may mistakenly believe the applications practiced in Karate are ineffective and not relevant in today’s time, but TIGER’s ability to take traditional techniques and translate them into modern applications is the hallmark of our program. Students at TIGER are taught from the disciplines of Shitoh Ryu and Shotokan Karate Do. Besides the physical benefits, students find our classes to be great for stress relief, confidence, discipline, and self-defense. TIGER has also incorporated the art of Kindai Ryu Jiu Jitsu in its Karate program. Kindai Ryu Jiu Jitsu implements pressure points, chokes, holds, joint manipulations and various take downs. By incorporating Jiu Jitsu and Karate together, students achieve a holistic martial art experience.
