Outstanding Instructors

Decades of Experience

Colorado Budokan offers karate training classes for all ages and skill levels – from children to adults, beginners to advanced practitioners.

All classes are conducted in a traditional manner and include the elements of etiquette associated with our art including; a reciting of the principles of karate; a series of formal bows honoring the founders of the art, our teacher and our peers; warm ups, basics, kata (forms), and sparring (kumite).

Instruction in each class is unique and will focus on the elements deemed most beneficial to the class by the instructor that day.

All age groups have the opportunity for sport karate competition at a local and national level. Teens and adults have the opportunity to compete internationally if they choose to pursue these goals.

Classes for Young Children

Our karate classes for young children are designed specifically for pre-school aged children ages 4-5. These classes emphasize the essential qualities of good character; such as courtesy, respect, and discipline. Additionally, these karate classes are designed to promote development of motor skills and improve a child’s ability to pay attention and follow directions.

All karate classes for young children are taught using fun and safe teaching methods appropriate for the age group. All instructors are CPR and First Aid Certified. A special tuition structure is available for students ages 4-5. Contact us for current rates

Classes for Kids and Tweens

Our karate classes for primary school aged kids 6-11 are generally organized by skill level and corresponding rank. All classes from beginner to more advanced, emphasize the fundamental qualities of good character along with the physical development of the body. The classes are conducted in a traditional manner and include physical conditioning exercise along with instruction in Shotokan Karate techniques appropriate for the specific age and skill level.

Classes for Teens & Adults

Because teens and adults are more able to focus on their own individual instruction than younger children, these karate classes combine students of all skill levels and ranks – from white to black belts.

Although classes typically consist of a wide range of ranks training together, we provide instruction for each individual at the level appropriate for one’s abilities.

These combined rank classes also allow more novice students to benefit from the assistance of higher ranking and more advanced practitioners as they develop their skills.

In addition to building a strong foundation in karate techniques, teens and adults can begin to explore karate as a means of maintaining a level of physical fitness, learn self-defense, and use karate as a way to control daily stress.

Olympic-style Sport Karate

Colorado Budokan is the ideal place for those interested in learning Olympic-style sport karate structure including technical rules, procedures, scoring, and allowable techniques as they apply to both Kata (forms) and Kumite (sparring); as featured in the 2021 Olympic games.

Although there are many independent karate organizations across the United States, each using their own rules and regulations, the Olympic games utilized the World Karate Federation (WKF) rule set in its competition; the same rules and regulations that Colorado Budokan teaches as part of its regular curriculum and has utilized in our annual regional tournament (Friendship Cup) for many years.
