#KARATE KID3 FREE#

Not knowing a great deal about the world of martial arts, I was a bit nervous and intimidated but as soon as they had their first class, the staff at Quest has made us feel incredibly comfortable and reassured us when we (and the boys) needed a bit more support. Our boys have a lot of energy and really needed something to help them focus and reinforce qualities taught at home, such as honesty and respect. Since we live in town, we had heard about Quest (all positive!) and decided to try it out. When our sons were 3, there wasn't a whole lot of activities for their age group, but we wanted to get them involved in something. ThatвЂ™s where my journey to a black belt began and IвЂ™m so glad it did.

They are currently offering a free WomenвЂ™s Self Defense seminar January 27th so thatвЂ™s a great place to start for all you ladies out there. They often offer specials so you can try a few classes and see if itвЂ™s a good fit for you. The school has taught me to believe in myself and my capabilities and has helped move me out of my comfort zone. I have more confidence and have proved to myself that I CAN do things that I thought I would never be able to do which is a great feeling.

I have lost weight and become stronger both physically and mentally. I think that is the case with many adults so karate is a perfect alternative in my mind. I am definitely not into going to a gym which I attribute to the fact that thereвЂ™s no one there to push me and hold me accountable. I was always involved in sports growing up but had not found anything to match that as an adult. We challenge and encourage each other to better ourselves and we celebrate each otherвЂ™s accomplishments.

At 42 I didnвЂ™t see myself starting anything like this but now I canвЂ™t imagine my life without it. All of the instructors are caring and patient so you immediately feel right at home. The school focuses not only on the physical aspect but on your mental well- being also. It is an incredibly positive environment that I like to call вЂњmy happy placeвЂќ. I was hooked after that and attended 2 more seminars before I actually enrolled. My karate journey at Quest Martial Arts began with a free womenвЂ™s self-defense seminar. Everyone has made us feel welcome, and I encourage anyone of any background/ability/age, to come check them out. Our first class turned out to be a fitness test, so now we know that thereвЂ™s only up from there! :) My husband and I have already seen improvement in our flexibility and endurance, and weвЂ™re having fun learning different weapon and self-defense skills. We were so impressed with the dojo that my husband and I decided to join as well. He has grown leaps and bounds with his newfound skills, confidence, self-discipline, and respect of others! We have even caught him practicing his Karate skills in his room when no one else is there вЂ“ including pushups! While looking at all the pictures on the Quest wall of past and current Black Belts, and said that one day, heвЂ™d have his picture up there too! They let me join in the class with him as he was a little shy, and halfway through, he didnвЂ™t even notice when I stepped out as he was having such a great time learning with the other students. But from the start, all of the sensei were wonderful and patient with him. When we first signed our 4-year old up for Karate lessons with Quest Martial Arts, we weren't too sure if it was something that would interest him.
