Our School Motto: "Honor In All Things"
Welcome to Arizona Wado Karate and Martial Arts Center. Established in 1976 by Sensei Marlon Moore 7th degree black belt. We hope you enjoy our web site and will stop by and visit our school, and pick up our FREE informational DVD and information packet. This site is designed to give you information about our Karate and Martial Arts programs, our philosophy in teaching, our staff and provide you with information on how to contact us as well. At our school, we emphasize Karate and Martial Arts as a life changing endeavor. Our goal is to help each and every student to reach his or her full potential both physically and mentally. Our programs are designed age specific, to help our students excel in their karate and Martial Arts training, in other sports activities, in school work and in developing leadership skills. Our results are proven in our students. Mentally, for example, over 90% of our advanced (training with us for over 3 years) junior (Ages 7-14) are straight “A” Studentsin school. Most of these students are also involved in our mentor program where they help other students with their schoolwork. Our programs will help your child do better in school.
Physically we incorporate the latest, modern coaching methods like L.T.A.D. (Long – Term – Athletic – Development) that is used by Olympic athletes around the world.
We combine these methods with the traditional, highly disciplined, Karate and Martial arts training of old. Our kids programs also help all children with a set of life skills, tools and advantages they can use throughout their lives. This is why our children are so successful in school, Karate and Martial Arts, other sports etc. and why so many Doctors refer us in cases of ADHD children and children that need to learn to focus more and learn how to use self-discipline in their lives. This is why we have been in business for so long (33 years) in this area and why we are teaching third generation same family students. We encourage you to ask our students and their parents about our programs and their own personal success stories.
