TANG SOO! WELCOME TO ENCINITAS KARATE

Since 1999, Encinitas Karate has been providing instruction in the art of Tang Soo Do Karate and Women's Self Defense Training to our local community. Our programs cater to students of all ages, beginning with our 4- 6 year old Karate Kids classes and progressing up to our Adults classes. This summer, we will even have Summer Camp opportunities. We have something for everyone.

Our mission is to make our students more successful in life by teaching Karate as a complete discipline of mind, body and spirit, producing students who are positive, confident, respectful and who adhere to high personal standards of conduct.

Any Man, Woman or Child can Learn Tang Soo Do Karate

Age, sex or fitness are no barriers to mastering this art. Training begins with simple motions of attack and defense and gradually progresses into more complex combinations of techniques and action forms. As coordination and ability improves, students are upgraded in rank and given more advanced instruction appropriate to their abilities. Fitness and flexibility improves by performing these techniques and by stretching before and after each class.

How to get started:

To begin, all you need is the desire to learn. It's never too late to start.

Call Master Karl Courage or Mrs Santhi Courage at (760) 635-3699 to set up your first private orientation lesson. We can schedule a time that suits your availability, afternoons, evenings and/or weekends.

What are orientation lessons?

These two 30 minute orientation lessons are designed to help you or your child make an easy transition into our group lessons by giving you the knowledge and familiarity with the basic blocks, punches and kicks they you will be learning in that first group lesson. Students also learn the required etiquette and we answer any questions and go over our class schedule during these two orientation lessons.

Our special Two Week Trial Program (click here for coupon) includes these two private orientation lessons as well as a student uniform and unlimited group lessons for the remainder of the two weeks once the orientation lessons are completed.
