and congratulations for your decision to pursue this course of study. We are prepared to work in partnership with parents to help keep kids’ priorities in proper order. We let our younger students know that, while Karate, sports and other activities may be fun and important, their most important responsibilities are doing well in school, helping the family in every way possible, and being good citizens in the community. Parents should know that we stress positive values: honesty, integrity, and behaving in ways that make family, friends and fellow students proud.

We want your training to be a positive experience in an environment that supports individuals’ aspirations in a climate of friendship and trust. Many martial artists will tell you their involvement was a life-changing event and most Black Belts will list getting their Black Belt as one of the major accomplishments of their lives, right up there with graduating from college, getting married, and having children. Much of what you learn here will carry over into other aspects of your life and remain with you long into the future. You will find the environment friendly and supportive because we have common goals-to excel in the martial arts and become as good as we can be. Throughout the course of your training you will work with many different people-Instructors, assistant Instructors, and fellow students. Our program strongly emphasizes team spirit and cooperation. It requires commitment, dedication, and hard work but it is within every student’s grasp. At Magnan Martial Arts, we believe that everyone has the potential to become a Black Belt. It is our goal at Magnan Martial Arts to share the good values of the martial arts-to help people reach high, yet attainable goals, and develop themselves as a whole person.
