Martial Arts
Our Palmer location offers karate training for ages 3 and up. Our karate classes focus on teaching students self-defense skills, as well as the values and discipline that are essential to the practice of martial arts.
Students learn how to work towards common goals and values, building a stronger sense of community along the way. We also offer kung fu classes, which incorporate a range of movements and techniques designed to improve overall strength, flexibility, and balance.
Tai Chi
For those looking for a more meditative practice, we also offer Tai Chi classes for both children and adults. Our Tai Chi classes focus on developing strength, flexibility, and mental clarity while reducing stress and anxiety in daily life. Tai Chi is completely beginner-friendly and requires no prior experience or fitness level. It's a great way to find balance and inner peace while improving overall health.
Why Martial Arts?
Beyond the physical benefits of martial arts training, there are many mental and emotional benefits as well. Our students learn to focus their minds and develop the self-discipline necessary to tackle difficult tasks and succeed in pursuing their goals. They also learn to remove negative influences from their lives and surround themselves with positive, supportive people. Leadership is a cornerstone of our martial arts training, and every student is encouraged to lead by example both inside and outside of our dojo.
Community Involvement
At Lehigh Valley Martial Arts, we are committed to making a positive impact on our community. We support local non-profit organizations such as The Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley and Sights for Hope. We aim to instill values such as politeness, reverence, and mutual respect in our students from an early age.
