ADVANCEMENT AFTER SCHOOL
A Head Start For Developing A Sound Mind In A Sound Body

Our children's program is the perfect after school activity! The Choi Institute invites you to have your elementary or middle school children join us for our After School Karate program.  Martial Arts teach the foundations of success: self-confidence, self-discipline, respect, inner strength, responsibility, and integrity with the opportunity to build lasting friendships with other motivated students.

The Choi Institute incorporates Promotion Assessments which hold students accountable for school, home, and martial art credibility in order to receive belt promotions.

We invite you to explore this excellent alternative to day care and to discover the numerous additional benefits of martial arts training 

Please contact us to receive a tour and observe one of our classes. 

2006 SUMMER CAMP

 Our founder, Master Choi, stated that we teach students what they do not learn in school.  At our camp children learn more than self-defense.  They learn self-awareness of how their mind and body function together in a healthy way.  They also learn self-respect and respect for others- a quality that is lacking in so many young people today. One of the many important benefits that the martial arts gives to our children is self-confidence.  Developing skills and the sense of achievement in overcoming obstacles teaches children confidence in their abilities.  They learn that they can stand up to pressure and make good choices. This self-confidence becomes critical in confronting problems they may face outside of our school such as bullying and peer pressure.  

 Enrollment is open to all families.  As in the past, we will be accepting Libra Foundation Scholarships for Portland residents through the Summer Champs Program.  Space is limited for this very popular alternative to traditional summer camps, so enroll early.  Make summer a fun and productive experience for your child.  Give them a unique and rewarding experience that will reinforce your values and help prepare them for the next school year and for the rest of their lives.
