Programs at Sumner Park.
Cubs (Ages 3 - 4)
First steps onto the mat. Listening, taking turns, focus, coordination – the foundations that make lessons (on and off the mat!) easier.
Little Lions (Ages 5 - 7)
Where discipline and confidence starts. A full-body workout that builds focus and self-belief; plus the kind of martial arts moves they can’t wait to show you on the way home!
Juniors (Ages 8 - 12)
The skills they’ll keep long after the lesson ends. Yes, they’ll learn self-defence. More importantly, they’ll build the resilience, focus and self-respect that carry them through high school and beyond.
Teen Karate (Ages 13+)
An outlet for the energy and weight teenagers carry. Our classes are designed and taught just for them, away from the under-12 classes.
Adult Karate
A workout that hits, and a room you’ll want to come back to! Lose weight, build muscle, learn to defend yourself, and make friends. No previous experience needed.
Kansai Sports Karate
Our competition pathway. Expect advanced sparring and tournament prep – for students of any age who’ve decided to push past the standard curriculum.
