Willmar Community Education

Have you ever wanted to do martial arts training without all the testing, belts, or the rest of the hoopla? Give training in Karatics a try! This is an Americanized version of Karate working on kicks, punches, blocks, combinations and having fun doing it. Stretching will also be part of this 50 minute class. Due to COVID, this is a video series, but Sensei Dan will give instruction on the techniques and provide verbal support. Just add your own music and we'll train together! Beginner or advanced - all are welcome. Let’s do this! Provide yourself with a clear floor space, a towel, a step ladder if you have one, and a good attitude! A series of five videos will be available to you on YouTube.

Do you have a punching bag? Are you bored doing the same old punches? Is it time for some flavor? Dan has been hitting a bag for 44 years and has skills to share. There isn't a better way to work up a hard sweat and relieve stress. Classes will include various kicks, punches, striking with elbows, knees and just fun stuff. You'll even work on combinations. Dan will instruct "how to" techniques, but will not go overboard because the workout is what we're going for. This is going to be fun! You can be a beginner or have experience -- everyone will get a workout. Please make sure you are wearing proper hand protection and footwear. A series of five on demand videos will be available to you on YouTube.
