Welcome to Blue Life Karate & Xtreme Kickboxing!

Hi everyone! My name is Shihan Durand Howard, and I’m very PROUD that hundreds of families all over North Jersey are singing the praises of our programs and telling their friends and neighbors how much of a positive impact it’s having on their lives. (You can see some of these stories for yourself on the “Reviews” page!)


Our students are surprised by how easy it is to get started and delighted that they don’t have to be “already in great shape” to truly enjoy their new classes. Parents who enroll their children are amazed at how patient and genuine we are and how quickly their child makes observable improvements in their level of focus and confidence!


But the best way to see if our program would be a good fit for you or someone in your family is to try it for yourself.


Get started now with one of our WEB SPECIALS and find out how you can be healthier, happier, and more confident with Blue Life Karate & Xtreme Kickboxing training!

LET'S GET STARTED!

Physical and Mental Development

Our members tell us that our school is more of an institution of self-improvement, physically and mentally, than just a gym or some “activity.” It feels like a family. We concentrate on building the whole person—physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and socially.


I pride myself on helping our adult members safely build lean muscle, quickly burn fat, gain flexibility, and relieve stress in a FUN, positive, and injury-free environment!


And for the children, parents all over the Maplewood area give my martial arts classes credit for increasing their child’s ability to focus in school and at home, building their self-esteem, and igniting a passion for self-improvement they never would have expected.

Blue Life Karate & Xtreme Kickboxing is So Much More than “Kicking & Punching”


The martial arts are not “just” about self-defense!


In reality, the physical “kicking and punching” are really just tools that I use to teach more important and MUCH more valuable lessons about yourself and life.


By practicing physical self-defense skills, you will follow the proven path for successful living based on discipline, focus, and perseverance.
