A "Karate-Ka" is a practitioner of karate.

The purpose of Youth Karate-Ka Association is to encourage and provide a place for youth to be educated and trained in the martial arts and healthy life choices. Particular emphasis is placed on encouraging and promoting a healthy body, mind and spirit; teaching discipline in all areas of their lives; providing them with an alternative to drugs and crime; developing conflict resolution skills; furthering life goals; fostering family development and encouraging in young people a sense of community and civic pride. Youth Karate-Ka Association also instills the importance of taking responsibility for oneself in and out of the martial arts arena.

We have had the pleasure of training thousands of youth in our community. Your continued support makes it all possible.
