    Karate can be intimidating at first, but at its best can also shape the body, mind and hearts of its students. This is, remarkably, what is offered here through the personal and expert instruction of Shihan Jeff Barrett and his very capable staff. With decades of experience in karate and a bachelor's in education, Jeff is approachable, personable and lives what he teaches. He contributes his expertise to every class, with a range of students from 3 years of age to retirement all benefitting immensely from his experience and common touch. The ciricuulum focuses on fitness, improvement in mental stamina and a healthy balance. It is welcoming for those wishing to start and to its credit has built a great group of senior students in its relatively short time in the area. The Northern Karate program is a large organization in the GTA with a balanced approach to martial arts that favours inclusiveness, personal best and a diversity of abilities over more rigid traditional models. The community has embraced the dojo and rgua approach with many, many children's classes available, which are well attended. Children still make up most of the dojo's students and are a tribute to how approachable this style of karate is and how it embraces fun at its core. It has also proven popular and effective for adults of any fitness level to challenge themselves. The balance of mental and physical challenges can keep interest for years with always more of the art to learn. Under the tuitelege here, both kids and adults continue to learn important lessons about being better and healthier people.
