The karate Dojo reveals the benefits of participating in martial arts classes

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep. 3, 2012 - Karate Dojo, a martial arts studio located in universal city teaches karate classes to people of all ages in both the San Antonio and Schertz areas. Owner, Grandmaster Balfar Wright, a ninth degree black belt, fitness coach and martial artist, has opened several martial art studio locations both nationally and internationally, where he has gained years of experience teaching martial arts to children as young as three years old to a wide range of adult skill sets.

Although most of his teachings are physical, Wright has a special program called “Verbal Judo” which is an anti-bullying  resource designed to help school age children handle verbal confrontation. The word karate literally means “empty hand” and the karate Dojo works in several different ways to teach unarmed defense. The Karate Dojo has karate classes and martial arts classes in the Schertz and San Antonio areas, specifically Goju Ryu karate, Aiki- Jitsu and Ju Te Tia Chi that provide participants with an abundance of benefits.

Martial Arts and karate benefit individuals physically, mentally and spiritually. Children especially learn motivation, respect, discipline, personal power and confidence. Because people who  choose martial arts have similar goals in mind, taking classes give people the opportunity to meet like-minded people, and for children to be exposed to positive influences and role models. The physical benefits include strength, balance, cardio conditioning, flexibility and self-defense. There are also many positive mental results such as stress relief, improvement of concentration, higher self-esteem, increase in energy and a positive mental attitude.
