Chamberlain Studios of Self-Defense

Kenpo Karate Adult Classes
Women's Introductory Program

Starting the martial arts can be a little overwhelming for many people, especially for women. Traditionally, women are not exposed to as much noise, roughhousing and physical contact in sports as are men. In addition, many people may feel uncomfortable or self conscious trying a new sport or activity. To ease women through this stage in their training, we offer an introductory program whereby they can work out with other ladies with no guys in the class (except the instructor). This is an ongoing class that you can stay in until you feel comfortable enough to join the regular co-ed classes. This usually lasts 4-8 weeks for most women.

Whether you start studying martial arts as a child, or as an adult, we can offer superb training for you. Besides the practical self-defense skills we cover, our system teaches respect, instills confidence through hard-work and self-discipline, and can help develop virtues of character that apply throughout your life, not just in the dojo.

If you are one of our Karate Moms, then you can take your first month of this class on us, at no charge!! We think you'll agree that this is a great program!!

If you are new to Chamberlain Studios™, then contact us today about setting up your FREE introductory private lesson!
