Cambridge Lakes Karate is an ongoing class that runs year round. The students progress through belt ranks while learning to set and achieve personal goals, diffuse peer conflicts, develop better concentration and focus, as well as improve their physical fitness, self-discipline, and self image. They learn practical safety awareness and cutting edge self defense skills. Our students learn Isshinryu
Karate, a style of martial art developed in Okinawa, Japan during the 1950s by its founder, Tatsuo Shimabuku (1906-1975). We are a affiliated with The Kyusho-Jitsu Kenkukai Organization. (KJK)
The KJK is an association of martial arts schools that study and practice the Dillman Method of Pressure Point fighting under the instruction of Grand Master Instructor, Chris Thomas. The schools within our organization are comprised of many different styles, backgrounds, and experience. However, we have all found that the Dillman Method of training and practice brings true meaning and effectiveness to our art. The KJK assists us by ensuring that the instructors all understand the appropriate principles, concepts, and theory, so that they properly teach the Dillman Method within their own schools. The KJK holds regular training opportunities and events for instructors and students alike to learn, practice, and (best of all) socialize with others who share our love of this intriguing art. Our classes are provided by the Cambridge Lakes Learning Center's School's Out program. We are not a private school. (I don't have my own dojo somewhere with dragons on the windows and cool posters on the walls. -Right now, I have a full-time job that I actually like and takes up too much time to start a private school.) So I'm very grateful that School's Out allows us to provide these classes.
