Recognized as one of the top children’s programs around Poway Kenpo Karate has been serving the families of this area for over 27 years.
The school is large enough to have separate age and level specific classes, yet small enough to give each student personal attention. With 4 different ages of children’s classes at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels so students are always in a class with others at their same age and level. Beginning students can be in ‘Tiny Tigers’ (4-5 year olds), ‘Little Ninjas’ (6-7 year olds), ‘Kool Kids’ (8-12 year olds) or ‘Kenpo Teens (13-16 year olds) and of course we have great Adult Classes as well.
Chief Instructor Barry Barker is an 8th Degree Black Belt and a Licensed Acupuncturist with almost 40 years in the martial arts, his wife Rosie Barker is a 5th Degree Black Belt with over 30 years in the martial arts. Every class is run by no less than 2 Black Belt Instructors and sometimes more. The school’s professional staff of 10 Black Belt Instructors have all been students of Poway Kenpo Karate for from 10 to 20 years each and range from 1st to 6th Degree Black Belts. The level of instruction at Poway Kenpo Karate is unmatched in the area and it’s a very nice school with nice, polite people at every level.
