For centuries, millions of people have benefited from the teachings of Martial Arts, a system of self-defense created in the Orient that does not advocate the use of weapons. Instead, a philosophy that believes in strengthening the mind and body through self discipline, fitness and awareness. At Rife’s Martial Arts, we teach the fundamentals of the Martial Arts by combining time-tested Eastern philosophy with the modern approach of Western teaching. We offer a well-balanced program for children and adults that emphasize self-esteem, pride, fitness and integrity.
RyuKyu Kempo Karate-Jitsu is a traditional Okinawan martial art incorporating striking and pressure points. This type of karate is primarily kata-based, with most of our technique and application pulled directly from the kata. We also incorporate principles and techniques from Modern Arnis and Small Circle Jujitsu. Karate training takes place in a formal atmosphere with an emphasis on etiquette and self-control as well as physical ability. Training generally is divided into the practice of basic techniques and sparring.
