Who would have thought the small town of Bend, Oregon, could offer traditional training in the Japanese martial art of Shotokan Karate!  Children in the Central Oregon area will be provided excellent training by high ranking student teachers, or "sempais" and even by the highly respected 6th Dan, Sensei Tim Hanlon, the founder of the club and Regional Director of the Northwest Region of the AAKF.

The children will learn more than punching and kicking.  The kids will learn the Dojo Kun, focus, discipline and respect for themselves, for other children and for adults as well.
