Teaching non-aggressive martial arts to kids ages 6-16. We use the term "Karate", because our program incorporates 3 disciplines: Tae Kwon Do Japanese Weapons Self-Defense Starting at the white belt level, students will learn hands-on practical self-defense techniques for handling bullies and aggressive or dangerous people. At the more advanced levels, students learn non-contact Iado sword and Bo staff weapons. Our program is non-aggressive and offers light contact, sparring. At the very advanced levels, students may participate in contact sparring (with gear) to develop timing and control- but this is done in a safe, and supervised, non-harming class. All students are welcome to participate in our annual Kick-a-Thon to help raise money for national charities- these fun events have helped us raise over $15,000. A fun part or our program is our Annual Tournament, where students of all levels compete for awards in Kata and Board-Breaking categories. Demo team option too!

Jin Sei Ryu Karate-Do blends the discipline and seriousness of traditional karate with a modern, student-centred teaching approach. Our method supports students of all ages as they grow at their own pace – safely, confidently, and with genuine understanding. We believe that training should strengthen the body, calm the mind, deepen awareness, and help people live with clarity and kindness. This balance of physical skill and reflective development sits at the heart of theJin Sei Ryu Way.
