Vancouver Marpole Dojo was open in September 2004. Currently there are about twenty kids joining the classes.Our goals are not only fighting techniques but also to help kids to develop team spirit and self-discipline, to recognize rules, to respect themselves and to show respect to others. Hard training along with fun and sport games will certainly help kids to develop strong character and healthy body.
