Adult Classes

The adult martial arts training program at Kenyon's Soo Bahk Do is dedicated to providing adults an environment where you can develop your skills in the traditional form of Korean Karate while increasing your physical and mental strength. 

In over 40 years of teaching martial arts in San Diego we have learned that adult students are looking for more than just instruction in combat fighting techniques, they want to maximize the physical, mental and health benefits they can derive from the martial arts. 

The adult classes at Kenyon's Soo Bahk Do give the students time to learn the basic and progress at their own pace. We recognize that busy work schedules and life can derail even the most disciplined and try to ensure that are classes provide you a great workout and a balance of physical and mental exercise. Plus we want to make sure you can commit to at least two classes a week and so we offer 

• Evening Classes 
• Mid - Day Classes 
• Saturday Classes 
• Private Instruction 

As part of our instruction we offer our adult students training routines and exercises tailored to your physical capabilities and needs. Quite a few of our adult students have realized healthy steady weight reduction, improvement in flexibility, decrease in chronic back aches as well as the overall mental balance and stress reduction that comes from practicing the martial arts. 

Although Martial Arts is a striking and combative art form its focus is on training so not to fight and avoid hurting others. However, our adult programs as well as our junior programs provide ample training time and opportunity to engage in sparring, competitions and partner exercises that apply to real life situation where knowing a martial art and how to defend yourself could be beneficial. 

Advancement in the program is based on each individual's capability in learning the techniques of our Martial Art and their readiness for advancement. Adults progress through our belt system at a pace the build your skills and confidence, many reaching midnight blue ("Black belt" in other art forms) within 5 years of starting the program.
