Welcome!  "Proudly teaching karate in Kamloops for 24 years"

We're sure that you've heard this a lot lately, but safety IS our first priority. Whether you perceive the danger or not, the world is in the middle of a pandemic. Precautions aren't meant to be convenient, they are meant to be effective; do your part.

-Six foot distancing will be enforced. If you aren't wearing a mask, keep your distance. Instructors will wear a mask or face shield as needed.

-We will open doors between classes to bring in fresh air. All mat work must be done with masks on; karate “yells” are suspended.

-Students who have any signs of illness, will not be permitted in the class. (If you have a cough/sneeze due to allergies, you will need to wear a mask). -Students working in pairs, especially on defense techniques will be required to wear masks. Students do NOT need to wear a mask for the entire class. (Face shields are acceptable, but may not work for all defense techniques). We are not a grappling school, so partner work is still not unreasonably close.

-Students are encouraged to arrive in uniform, no more than five minutes before your class starts. There won’t be a waiting area, and the downstairs bathrooms will be closed to reduce traffic. News Updates will be sent in an email.

-When entering the foyer, stay to the right; when exiting, stay to the right.  Only stop in the foyer to take off your shoes or hang up your coat. No conversations, please! Once inside, stay six feet apart. We recommend owning at least two cloth masks…wash between uses.

-Hand sanitizer will be available (and mandatory) for all students entering the dojo. Hand sanitizer will be available IN the dojo. Use it before and after handling equipment, or working on defense techniques where there is any hand contact.

-If you forget your mask, we have some disposable ones available for $1.00.
