The Ultimate in Martial Arts & Fitness

 

Mind & Body

AVK Karate teaches its students, both young and old to calmly and intelligently negotiate obstacles; to learn to move around the walls life presents, always keeping our ultimate objectives in focus. When faced with an opponent, and more times than not, the opponent is ourselves, a student will learn to release anxieties and tension, and relax. A relaxed martial artist will be able to immediately analyze her predicament, increasing her chances of making the right decision on how to proceed. Once this concept is taught, the student immediately begins to develop a sense of awareness and a sense of confidence in her abilities to deal with obstacles, whether they may be an actual opponent in class, an assailant on the street, a school exam, a job interview, a death in the family, a physical handicap, or simply a struggle to perfect the form on a front kick.
