EMPOWERING LIVES:
ACADIANA KARATE
Founded in 1978 by Shihan Pablo Mejia, Acadiana Karate has taught thousands of its students how to succeed in life. Students may begin their training as early as 5 through Adult.
Martial Arts is one of the best possible activities for children and adults.
We teach our students how to defend themselves physically, but more importantly how to build the mental and emotional skill sets necessary to conquer challenges well beyond the classroom. Acadiana Karate’s structured classes are meant to help develop coordination, physical fitness, mental strength, as well as gain valuable social skills. Through positive reinforcement, Acadiana Karate brings out the best in your child to help them succeed in life with better communication and social skills.
WHY ACADIANA KARATE?
Kids at Acadiana Karate actually like structure, because it makes them feel safe and cared for. They can trust deep down that they’re safe to explore and challenge themselves. Classes are age-appropriate so that kids can learn skills and topics based upon their stages of physical and mental development.
Our programs were created for real family schedules. Convenient class times mean that kids, adults, and whole families can improve their quality of life without killing every moment of spare time.
Both kids and adults will gain flexibility, agility, and strength, even if they aren’t athletic! They will love it, because it’s not only super fun, it’s inclusive and accommodating at every step.
POSITIVE COMMUNITY
Our programs are based upon the tenets of honesty, integrity, politeness, courage, justice and “never quitting” spirit. Our encouraging and positive atmosphere is contagious. Kids learn positive habits and adults build meaningful, lasting friendships.
At Acadiana Karate, we know that getting your child out of the house, in the car, and across town to an activity is a big deal. We guarantee that when they leave, it will have been 100% worth it, every time!
