Karate, Fitness & Life Skills for Kids Changes Lives!

As a professional martial arts instructor, I've witnessed 100's, maybe even thousands of kids transform, physically and mentally. Getting your child started in the martial arts may just turn out to be the best thing you will ever do for your child!

It's More than Just Little Dragon Stuff... But they love It!
The Children's Martial Arts Program at Wrights Extreme Martial Arts and Family Karate Center is for all children starting at age 4. If your child has some experience or none at all, we have an appropriate program just for them! Our professional and caring staff is dedicated to helping every child develop their martial arts and self-defense expertise, as well as their physical fitness, and most importantly their character development & life skills which will stay with them the rest of their lives. Our energizing classes provide complete martial arts training in a easy to follow, fun and age approrpriate learning system.

"I don't know if I can successfully say how appreciative I am of the things Sensei Wright has done for me and how grateful I am for all he has willingly given to me, and everyone else at the Dojo. I have been here at Wright's Martial Arts and Karate Center for over a year now, and not only have I seen my own life change for the better, but I've seen all the others around me grow and become better people for having been thought by Sensei Wright. Whether it's Martial Arts, or religion, or ANY life situation, he has the abilities and the willingness to teach anybody about these things, because he has done so with me. He gives so much to his students and staff, and he does it WILLINGLY. He asks for nothing in return, although I wish we, in turn, could give him everything he's given us so freely.

Sensei Wright and his school have become my family. I have never been as happy as I am when I am at the Dojo. He has given me my future and the means to get there. When I moved to Jacksonville, I had a negative view about everything. I hated this town and the people in it even before I got here. I was a miserable person because I didn't accept that this is where I lived now. I didn't want to make friends, I didn't want to go to school, I didn't even want to be at home. I was unhappy ALL the time! Then I was introduced to Wright's Extreme Martial Arts and Karate Center. My life turned around. My outlook on life changed completely. I'd live in this town forever if Wright's Carolina Karate Center was here. I truly mean Sensei Wright's school has changed my life. I'm a better person, and I'm still improving, just like everyone else at the Dojo.

I've learned more than self-defense. I've learned about life, and how to live and be happy. Many things haven't been said in this letter, but I can't exactly put it into words. Sensei Wright has loved me as a student for as long as I have been here. I love Sensei Wright!" - Cardine P. Smith

Here at Wrights Extreme Martial Arts and Family Karate Center, every single kids karate class contains:

Imagine How Great It Will Be.
Imagine how great it will be when your child develops the indominitable spirit to stand up to unhealthy peer pressure and schoolyard bullies. Imagine how great it will be when your child becomes the respectful, happy and well adjusted young individual you've always known they could be. Imagine how great it will be when you see that your child is in fantastic physical shape and is as healthy as can be.

"I was the calmest, quietest most scared kid you could meet, until my grandfather who raised me died. Then a surge hit me. It felt like nothing could stop me. I wasn't afraid anymore, nor was I calm or quiet. I got into fights and didn't want anyone to bother me, not even my family. One day I looked in the mailbox and found an invitation to Wright's Extreme Martial Arts. At first I didn't want to go, but while riding my bike one day I took a hard hit, and realized maybe karate would get me back on track. The first day I walked into I felt like I just wanted to hit somebody. After time, the anger inside of me was controlled enough to put it into my hits and kicks. The motivation and determination to be one of the best and most focused increased. It was like I was starting over. While at Wright's Carolina Karate Center I've made friends, gotten better grades, improved my speed, and found a way to have a positive attitude about myself and my life. Somewhere deep inside I know my grandfather is looking down proud. I thank Sensei Wright and others for helping me. My journey is just beginning. " - Chris "The Dragon" Bradley
