About Connecticut Budo Karate in Monroe, CT

At Budo Karate, we recognize that training for the mind is just as important as physical performance. We offer programs designed to develop focus, awareness, observation, patience, and mental processing. Our classes are suitable for students of all ages, and we emphasize a balanced approach to training both the mind and body. Kyokushin karate is an intense style of martial arts that is known for its physically strong participants. While sport and competition is a part of our training, it is secondary to karate as a means of personal development. Karate helps to develop an indomitable spirit and the skills to overcome any obstacle. We strive to nurture in our students the strength and resilience to reach their full potential.

Little Dragons (Ages 3-5)

The Little Dragons program is intended for pre-school aged children and consists of age-appropriate physical exercise, games, and safety instruction. This outstanding program was developed in part by a long-time karate practitioner with expertise in early-childhood education, and is designed to keep children active and engaged in class. This program focuses on improving the child’s concentration, gross motor skills, balance and coordination, and ability to follow instruction. These are all school readiness skills and will benefit students as they transition into school. Consistent feedback and praise, based on real accomplishments, strengthens the child’s self-confidence and reinforces positive behavior.

Young Lions (Ages 5-8)

The Young Lions program shares the benefits of the Little Dragons but begins to include more complex karate techniques and advanced concepts. Aside from fun physical activity, themed discussion sprinkled throughout the training and games address concepts such as personal responsibility, self-control, patience, respect for self and others, and a positive attitude. These, among other things are constantly reinforced throughout the training. We also start to introduce safety concepts such as “Stranger Danger,” 911 Emergencies, fire drills, and other strategies to keep them safe without instilling an inordinate sense of fear.

Kyokushin Juniors (Ages 8 – 14)

The Kyokushin Juniors curriculum includes all of the concepts in our younger programs, but presented in a manner commensurate with the student age range. Having separate classes for these students allows us to focus on the needs of the children more closely. The curriculum is Kyokushin karate slightly modified to increase safety. The Juniors learn the same sets of basic techniques, combinations, and forms as the adult karate classes. However, fighting and sparring is done in a very controlled manner with younger students only fighting with instructors (and not with each other) until the student is comfortable and ready.
