SLU Karate Class

SLU Karate Club is hosting classes on Mondays and Thursdays. Club President Dan McFarlane has more:

SLU Karate has been active on campus for over 20 years and continues a tradition of Cheezic Tang Soo Do Karate here at SLU. Spring classes have begun but we are gladly accepting new students until Feb. 13. Class runs 7:30-9:00pm on Mondays and Thursdays in multipurpose room 1 of the Simon Rec. We operate like a neighbor hood school with 2 Master Belts as instructors, grading opportunities each semester and chances to participate in demonstrations and workshops. No prior martial arts experience is necessary to join! It is a great workout that also gives you confidence, self  discipline, and constant challenges you to push yourself both physically and mentally. We hope to see you in class soon!

The class are free up until February 13, when the club expects $95 dues for new students.

 

New Year’s Goal, What’s Yours?
