kids learn focus and concentration at the Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy
focus and concentration
Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy 
Call or text 561-926-1846  -  www.brkka.com

Martial arts training improves focus and concentration inside the dojo and out in the -world. Students will see improvements in their schoolwork as well as in other sports and activities.
So many parents these days come into the dojo saying "my child has trouble concentrating, he has no focus. "  Maybe you can relate?  I know I can as a parent.  I knew focus and concentration would be major keys for success in whatever my kids choose to do in life. 
In our kenpo karate classes we show our students how to harness that laser beam focus through drills, stances and breathing exercises.  If you would like your child to try a class, we offer a free 1 week trial.  You don't need to buy anything.  Just drop in to the next class that fits your schedule.

CPR CERTIFIED INSTRUCTORS AT BOCA RATON KARATE & KICKBOXING

It’s time to get fit, have fun and learn valuable self-defense and safety skills!  Enjoy 1 FREE WEEK with the Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy.  Call today for your complimentary intro week.   561-926-1846    www.BRKKA.com
​

Our Members/Students and their safety come first at the Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy.  This is why our staff is both CPR and AED Certified.  Sudden cardiac arrest is the one of the leading causes of death in the United States for both men and women.  Hundreds of thousands of people have cardiac arrest in the US each year.  The heart suffers from an electrical rhythm problem and is no longer able to pump and circulate adequate blood and oxygen to the body.  They symptoms are collapsing, losing consciousness and no longer breathing.  Performing CPR keeps the blood supply moving and increases chance of survival over 2x from not being attended by a certified CPR specialist.
 
Proper training and understanding of CPR is critical to this life saving act.  Understanding proper technique, safety and legal ramifications are key to success.  We strive to provide a safe, effective environment for both youth and adult in the martial arts as well as personal training and fitness arenas.

What makes Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy special?  Here are few things we are proud of about our school that might help you decide to come give us a try when looking at the many martial arts options available in west Boca Raton…
 
WHAT WE OFFER

-      We reward students individually and promote when ready, not on a pre-set schedule.  Our students are all
                equally accomplished to each belt level earned

-      Unlimited classes each week – no forced schedule
-      A variety of programs that offer flexible options for those who travel or can only train one time per week

                like that fit into your schedule

We strive to always offer the best customer service possible and truly love what we do.  We want our students and families to love spending time in our dojo.  It’s a unique family environment that we greatly value and want to share with all who walk onto our dojo mats.
 
The core business of Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy (BRKKA) is to provide realistic self-defense instruction in both private and group settings.  The BRKKA Dojo teaches traditional Tracy’s Kenpo and kickboxing under the direction of Sensei Doug Tate and wife Ms. Patty. 
The need for self-defense, martial arts training for both youths and adults is tremendous in this day and age for a multitude of reasons.  Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing offers programs that provide the following value and personal growth opportunities:
1. Self-Defense:  This is number one reason that sparks most people’s interest in the martial arts.  The martial arts teach the techniques of how to defend yourself, and as important, teach you the way to think about and prepare to defend yourself. They also help you build up the reflexes you need if you’re ever in an undesirable situation, and give you the confidence to fight back.
2. Self-Confidence:  As students become more proficient in their martial arts training, their confidence gets a big-boost, becoming more self-assured and confident. The Sensei’s (Teacher’s) encouragement goes a long way to help them achieve this goal, but a strong confidence level will extend far beyond the Dojo (Martial Arts Studio).
3. Discipline:  In the martial arts, there is constant repetition in drills and practices with strong emphasis on detail. There are rules and protocols to be followed.  All of this teaches respect – respect for the Sensei, respect for the Dojo, respect for one another - both opponents and colleagues – and self-respect. It also teaches the benefits of frequent practice, and the skill of patience.  While we agree that practice makes perfect, we enhance that statement to read – “Perfect Practice makes Perfect”.
4. Emphasis on Individual Achievement: While teamwork and sportsmanship are emphasized in most team sports, at some point most children need to be told why they aren’t a starter or why their stuck in right field.
In the martial arts, each person’s success is based on his or her own individual merits and individual ambition will help achieve success.
5. Gender Equity:  The martial arts are one of the few sports where both boys and girls can play together. Everyone can benefit from learning self-defense.  It also gives brothers and sisters an opportunity to practice together and learn from one another as well (not to mention the convenience of having kids and parents in one place at a time).
6. Exercise:  The typical martial arts class will often be comprised of warm-up calisthenics, teaching and practicing of moves and possibly some sparring. The warm up and practice comprise the bulk of the time, and for that time students will be constantly on the go – stretching, crunches, punches and kicks. The workout each student receives will not only assist in the natural development of his or her muscles, but also help them build stronger Cardio-Vascular systems.
7. Respect for Strength:  As students train, they will learn to respect their newfound strength and techniques. They will also gain a disdain for bullying as well.
8. The Entire Family can Participate:  Most martial arts schools offer classes for both adults and children. While most do not run those classes simultaneously, they are usually one right after the other. This means that you can watch your children workout, and then they can watch you. If you have the proper space for it, you can practice with each other at home, and learn from one another. This will give you a special activity to use as a bonding tool with your family. You can also become physically fit together as BRKKA offers family workouts multiple times every week.
9. The Never-Ending Season:  The Martial Arts are a year-round affair. As mentioned above, your exercise routine remains constant the entire year. Having this consistency also helps build upon discipline, and allows students to progress very quickly.
10.  Conclusion:  Martial Arts provide both adults and child with an excellent physical workout, and also act as a vehicle to provide a mental and emotional outlet as well.

safety skills!  Enjoy 1 FREE WEEK with the Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy.  Call today for your complimentary intro week. 561-926-1846    www.BRKKA.com

Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy is one of the few facilities that offers certified personal training from experienced Martial Artists.  Personal Training at BRKKA includes a complete focus on health that starts with nutrition and exercise and expands into goal setting, expectations for health and weight loss and full support from experienced and certified trainers.  Personal Training is tailored to the individual needs that includes cardio training, toning and stretching.       
The benefit of having a Martial Artist also be your personal trainer is the variety of exercise skills opportunities.  Many of our clients both train in the Karate/Kickboxing classes as well as the workout group classes for cardio and toning.  This gives a well-rounded workout routine that never gets repetitive or boring, constantly challenging the student both mentally and physically through varying cardio routines and workouts of different muscle groups.
There are many kickboxing and personal training options out there.  Many of the newer kickboxing facilities are riding a trend and getting their staff certified in kickboxing in 6 weeks or less.  Many students have come to our facility complaining of different injuries and aches and pains from training in these types of facilities.  The Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy has instructors that have been training in the martial arts for decades, not weeks. They understand proper form and the reasoning behind the self-defense techniques taught.  They don’t just train … they educate students about correct form from the get go and because of this, injuries from improper form are non-existent.    The Personal Training aspect only adds to the knowledge base as these two offerings dovetail nicely together for a complete fitness program. 
Come visit our west Boca dojo – learn about Kenpo karate – the best real-world self-defense out there.  Get great exercise and reduce stress while Kickboxing and taking some of our workout classes.  Enjoy new friendships and getting healthy with like-minded families.  Regardless of choice of program, Boca Raton Karate & Kickboxing Academy will provide an activity that will give you years of enjoyment on a path to a new healthy lifestyle!
