Girl Instinct and Kid Instinct Karate Programs

​

I wish that all girls had the opportunity to learn the skills we are doing in class! - Izzy

​

Since starting Goju Ryu Karate, I have never felt more empowered and confident as an independent woman making my footprints in this world. I feel much more sure of myself and prepared for any surprises or unexpected events! I even see the world with new beauty and presence having so much more awareness and connectedness to my body and mind. This is my first martial art. Thank you for your encouragement, support & insane amount of patience working with me!!! I would highly recommend this training and this amazing Sensei to any woman, girl or child thinking about starting up Karate. Goju Ryu is such a beautiful, traditional style. Strong, powerful but very, very graceful & elegant. Thank you Sensei Sheryn!!!! - Shakaia

Girl Instinct is amazing for all girls who want to build confidence and have fun! I've made lots of friends and have deeply benefited from Sensei Sheryn's wisdom!! - AT
