Enrollment and registration



Level 1: We welcome newcomers ages 7 to adult* to register for either or both sections at any point in the year. Little Dragons graduates who are age 6 and have all four stripes may also join with instructor permission. Contact sensei@sitkakarate.org for details or registration forms.

Level 2: By invitation for intermediate and advanced karate students. Students with prior martial arts experience at another school may also join level 2 with instructor permission. Sparring gear is required for this class.

Little Dragons: Kids age 4 to 6 only. Classes will start on September 17th. Registration is open. Contact sensei@sitkakarate.org for details.

Private Lessons: 30 minute or 1-hour private lessons are available by appointment. Limited times available with Laurinda Sensei and sometimes a Senpai.



* New adult students may be asked to undergo background check before finalizing enrollment. This can be done though several options including in conjunction with getting an Amateur Athletic Union non-athlete youth-program card. Our program reserves the right to deny enrollment to any prospect and to dismiss any current student who has a history we feel is inconsistent with athlete guidelines.
