Upcoming Class Changes and Special Events
Current/Upcoming Events/Announcements:
***The dojo is now OPEN for physical classes!***
*Wait! What?! 18 hours/week of classes on ZOOM? I thought everyone else was only teaching a couple hours each week…? Well, we’re not “everyone.” We are Silicon Valley Karate; continuing to set the high bar for both quality and quantity of instruction.
Normally, we have 14 youth Karate classes/week and 10 adult classes/week (including a few that are open to some kids as well – we presently have 13 youth classes and 6 adult classes, 2 of which are also open to youth). We also have self-defense workshops, along with guest instructor events and more. See our schedule here.
We are set up to provide temperature scans at the front door, using a separate exit door to avoid bottleneck at entrance, social-distancing at all times…We have a 55″ monitor, laptop, condenser mic & HD camera on the wall…We are all set up for both in-person and remote learning!
In our kata-of-the-month cycles, we are currently doing Kanku-dai (8:30-9:15am) and Heian Yondan (9:15-10:00am). No kumite classes for a while still…Other classes will be coming back as enrollment picks back up.
New intro kids classes Tue/Thu 3:15-4:00pm.
Tests in youth classes last week of October; in adult classes first week of November.
Many of us are wearing pink belts in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Our annual charity kick-a-thon event will take place in mid-December.
Other special events are in the works but many have been put on hold due to virus concerns. Check back here again soon for more info!
