Ages 2 1/2 - 5 years old
The Little Ninjas Program is designed for the younger members of your family, ages 3 to 5. Through karate-based dynamic activities, a typical Little Ninjas class helps your child build eight key life skills: Coordination, Control, Discipline, Focus, Teamwork, Balance, Memory and Teamwork.
Coordination & Control
Many children are unable to concentrate due to many daily distractions. In our martial arts program your child will work on one thing at time, learning how to refocus again. They may only do one thing for 30 seconds in the beginning but they will get better and better. Before you know it, they do this at home too. They focus on their homework...on their chores ....on conversations with you...and anything they put their mind to.
Discipline & Focus
Kids develop confidence not because parents tell them they're great, but because of their achievements, big and small and that is what our program is about. We will give your child opportunities to earn his or her own victories. From something as simple as a nod or high five to becoming a tournament champion or black belt. Confidence is built-they get a sense of themselves as able and capable, and tap into that high-octane fuel of self-esteem.
Teamwork & Balance
When it comes to bullies, kids in martial arts don't back down. They have the courage to look a bully in the eyes and stand their ground. This is what nearly always happens - the bully gets scared and backs down! It happens nine times out of 10. And for the one time out of 10, the bully doesn't back down- your child is equipped with the tools to defend his or herself. And if necessary, he'll be able to get away and see out an authority figure.
Memory & Teamwork
Kids develop confidence not because parents tell them they're great, but because of their achievements, big and small and that is what our program is about. We will give your child opportunities to earn his or her own victories. From a nod or high five to becoming a tournament champion or black belt. Confidence is built-they get a sense of themselves as able and capable, and tap into that high-octane fuel of self-esteem.
Ages 5-12 Years Old
Our style of traditional Okinawa/Japanese Karate is called Wado Ryu, which means "Way of Peace". This style is not only beautiful to perform, but also highly effective in real life self-defense situations.
BETTER GRADES
We have great teenagers training in our martial arts center. Our goal for your child is to receive a Black Belt along with their High School Diploma! Being a Black Belt, or even a martial arts instructor, looks great on your college application! Both parents and students report to us that the discipline and confidence they learn helps them do better in school, and increases their chances on receiving scholarships. Your teenager could be one of them!
RESPECT
Our martial arts program strives to provide your teenager with the self-confidence and focus they need to make it in today's world while teaching them how to be respectful. We take pride in always providing an environment that is safe and positive for all students. We provide a fun, activity-driven atmosphere, where those with common interests can join in together in physically rewarding and mentally challenging activities.
SELF DEFENSE
When it comes to bullies, kids in martial arts don't back down. They have the courage to look a bully in the eyes and stand their ground. This is what nearly always happens - the bully gets scared and backs down! It happens nine times out of 10.

And if necessary, he'll be able to get away and seek out an authority figure.
FITNESS
Your child will find that our martial arts program is high energy, exciting, and motivating. They will enjoy the workout as well as the life long friendships that are built through exercising and training with the people who have similiar goals. Teens training in our martial arts program also develop positive character traits such as perseverance, goal-setting, honor, and discipline.
Ages 14 +
The Family Karate class is for youths, teenagers and adults. Our classes are not just about kicking and punching, but about developing the internal attributes that allow us to be better versions of ourselves.

FUN,FRIENDS & FITNESS
Kids love us and parents trust us!
So many summer camps are boring and kids don't have fun or learn useful things to help them become successful in home and school. Our summer camps are different!
Your child will get tons of summer fun while learning in a safe, fun & structured environment.
FUN
Japan Karate Institute James Island Summer Camps are truly fun for kids! All the activities, crafts, games, and obstacle courses are something EVERY child loves doing. We play games like Rattlesnake, Red Light-Green Light, Ninja Tag and so many more....
And not only physical games- kids get to play tons of board games to engage other parts of their brain, too. Games like Jenga, Connect Four, Sorry and more!
FITNESS
Your child won't be bored in our summer camps. We keep our campers moving all day long. They will most likely fall asleep on the way home after pick-up. The reason why is because we are, at the core, a martial arts studio. We know how to engage students on a physical level. Your child will also get to learn basic martial arts moves in every camp. They will even practice and improve eye-hand and hand-foot coordination.
FRIENDS
So many camps are boring and overcrowded. Kids don't have much fun or learn useful things to help them become successful in home and school. They even get BULLIED at other camps! Not at Japan Karate Institute James Island Summer Camps- our camps are capped at 20 kids. We want to provide the same stellar experience for what we are known for in martial arts. Our instructors are hands on and engage with and care about every camper.
