The Western Karate Academy is the largest martial arts school in Kamloops and has been operating here for more than twenty years. We have locations on both the North and South shore, and have schedules that allow families to train together. We offer low rates as well as family rates. The Western Karate Academy website contains detailed information that includes locations, schedules and prices. We are always available to answer your questions; just contact us. The Western Karate Academy is committed to helping families spend more time together and live healthier lives. Karate training also develops self control and helps children with ADHD manage impulse control. Although the main focus of the academy is character development, the self defense aspect will also protect young students from bullying by increasing their confidence. Karate has something for everyone; visit our website to find out what it can do for you.
I have always been interested in martial arts but never figured I could afford to take it up.. A friend of mine suggested that I come to a class at Western Karate Academy where his family studied Shokaido. So I went to watch and within a few minutes I knew this was the place for me. Sensei Doan is very understanding and compassionate about each one of his students...
The students themselves are made to feel a part of a very fine family. When working with each other we learn the most we can to the best of our abilities and it helps us to develop our character within.
The people in the academy make you feel welcome right from the first time you walk thru the door. Now martial arts is not for everyone but how will you know unless you give it a try?Read more
