TOTALLY = Everything CHRISTIAN = About Jesus KARATE = Empty hands.
The Totally Christian Karate program is designed to teach children biblical self-discipline and scripture through the practice of the martial arts. The combination of physical training and spiritual guidance is a powerful tool to help them develop not only physically but also mentally and emotionally.
In addition to learning the physical aspects of martial arts, your children will be learning valuable life skills as respect, self-control, and perseverance. These skills are essential for their growth and development, and will serve them well in the future.
Furthermore, the program is also providing them with an understanding of biblical teachings and principles, which will help them to make wise decisions and navigate the challenges that they will face in life.
The Totally Christian Karate Program is founded and created by Mr. Mitchell Freistat in 1993
He is still the Head Instructor of Totally Christian Karate in Sale Creek Christian Martial Arts in Sale Creek Tennessee.
