Welcome Message
Thank you for visiting Blue Life
karate Centers. We are proud to be the area’s most preferred
martial arts training center for children, teens, and their parents.
The process of instruction in our school is to understand that the needs of children are not the same needs of adults. So, at Blue Life Karate Centers, we are like two schools in one. A curriculum for children, which is structured to be exciting, fun, and life skill building and a curriculum for adults which is structured to teach realistic self defense application for possible personal protection. We achieve this mission by teaching
the martial
arts
as
a complete discipline of mind, body, and spirit. Our training methods
are fun, informative, and very interesting for the whole family.
If you are interested and would really like to explore martial arts as an avenue, please feel free to browse our web site and sign up for a free intro class. I am sure that your experience will be a rewarding one.
Sincerely,
Shihan Durand Howard, 7th Degree Black Belt, Founder
Member: U.S.A. Martial Arts Hall of Fame
Blue Life Karate centers opened its doors in 1993
and has grown to become the most preferred center in the area.
Mission Statement
Our mission is to make our students more
successful in life through the practice of Ninjutsu offered
at our school. We do this by teaching martial arts
as a complete discipline (mind, body, spirit) which in addition
to developing physical defense,
encourages the formation of high personal standards and respect
for fellow men
and women. Through our practice and teaching, we strive to produce
individuals who are positive, respected and contributing members
of society.
Here at Blue Life Karate Centers we are
focused and determined to serve our students with the highest quality
instruction, professionalism,
and the best service in the industry. To achieve our goal we have
implemented programs that cater to the individual interests of our
community.
Our Students range from all ages with interest varying from stress
relieving, health promoting exercises to intense, traditional training
that the Martial Arts are so famous for. All aspects of our center
are arranged to build a balanced relationship of trust and respect
with our students. We offer discipline and character building in
a friendly and relaxed atmosphere that anyone can feel comfortable
in. So if you are ready to feel great, become disciplined, focused,
confident, and alive then come in and see us. Our doors are open.
We have three main goals for our students:
 LEARN PRACTICAL SELF DEFENSE: Blue Life Karate Centers
has a system of natural, easy to learn movements, which are designed
to allow individuals aged young and old, male or female, to defend
themselves against aggressive, often larger opponents.
PROMOTE BETTER HEALTH: In order to
eliminate wasted motion and promote increased speed and power, students
are taught to become more relaxed and fluid. The way we train also
has an aerobic effect. This improves the cardiovascular system (hearts
and lungs) and accelerates the body’s metabolism, causing
you to burn more calories and to lose weight. Regular training also
results in increased balance, flexibility, strength, muscle tone,
speed, coordination, and improved reflexes and timing! Once in better
health, you will not only look better and feel better, you will
also have a lot more energy to do the things you enjoy.
 DEVELOP A STRONG MIND: In this aspect,
our curriculum surpasses all other exercise and sports activities.
Our program is taught according to individual needs and levels of
skills. Through our instructor’s guidance and encouragement,
students begin to establish, and actually achieve, personal goals.
Students learn that, by setting realistic goals and applying dedication
and hard work, anything is possible. They develop confidence! The
virtues of Respect, Concentration, Discipline, and Motivation are
the characteristics of a truly confident individual. All these,
and more, are stressed by our Staff. We thank you for wanting to
take interest.
