1. Welcome: Students will be welcomed by friendly No Limits Marital Arts Staff & Instructors.
2. Mat Chat and Warm-Up: The class will typically start with a mat chat by the instructor, who will explain the basics of what the class will entail. The class will begin with a warm-up to get the students’ muscles and joints ready for the training session.
3. Fundamental Techniques: The instructor will teach the fundamental techniques of the karate, which will include basic strikes, blocks, and kicks. These techniques will be taught in a safe, fun and controlled manner, with the instructor providing feedback to help the students improve their form.
4. Partner Drills: Depending on the the class, some training drills may involve a partner where the students work together to practice the techniques they have just learned. This is an opportunity for students to learn how to apply the techniques in a more realistic setting, while having fun and making new friends.
5. Forms or Kata: Your child will also learn a form or kata, which are prearranged sequences of movements that simulate a fight against multiple opponents (similar to a choreographed dance in dance classes). The instructor may teach a basic form or kata during the first class to give students an idea of what to expect in future classes.
6. Cool-Down: The class will typically end with a cool-down, which may include stretching or breathing exercises to help the students relax and recover after the training session.
