Advanced Kenpo

Advanced Kenpo Karate Classes for children ages 8-12 in Wake Forest

We train students for real life situations, not karate tournaments

Speedy, Efficiency, and Self Confidence

Kenpo is an American karate style that emphasizes speed vs. speedy, efficiency, and self-confidence. Advanced Kenpo will teach your kids how to build on what they learned in the Kenpo Beginner’s course and continue to foster self confidence and discipline.

Advanced Instruction in Kenpo Karate

After your students have a few years of karate under their belts, they’ll be ready for the advanced course. In this next step of training, we’ll push your kids to become stronger and improve their accuracy in both striking and self defense.

More Than Just Physical Skills

We’ll help our students build mental and social skills, not just physical traits. We surround them with positive role models who will encourage them to practice to get better, keep trying when they’re not doing well, and build them up through a series of accomplishments.

From day one, our students learn:

Respect for others
Discipline and self-control
Focus and attention to detail
Incredible self-confidence

Belt Promotion

To gain a belt promotion, our students must show respect to their school teachers and parents, as well as perform satisfactorily in class. We use the term black belt as a metaphor for personal excellence.

Our Reviews

Great school with wonderful teachers. My daughter has a great time learning and everyone is friendly. There is even an adult class that allowed me to try to see if I liked it and everyone was very patient with me. I am thankful to have my daughter be a part of the Innovative Martial Arts Academy in Wake Forest and know she is benefiting from it in more than one way. It amazes me how fast she is learning and how hard she is trying. They have her trying to develop at her fullest with her mind, body, and spirit. I would recommend this school to anyone interested in martial arts.

This place is great! Charles and his team have fantastic programs for kids. When we started our 3.5 year old son, I didn’t know what to expect. He quickly adapted to the classes and now loves going. Our 2 year old son loves watching and will start as well as soon as he turns 3. Innovative Martial arts also hosted their birthday parties. The kids had a blast doing different activities throughout the birthday party. Can’t say enough good things about this place, and what they teach!

Wonderful place for not only skill development but also personal development. Owner and instructors genuinely get to know students and families and care about them. The lessons learned will provide character growth as well as martial art skills. The owner is also a long time student of many different martial arts, he didn't just buy a franchise, and tries very hard to live what he teaches the students. Proud to have been in this dojo family for 6+ years and proud of the friendships we have made there!
