Empowering Poughkeepsie, NY Area Children to Stand Up to Bullies

Find out why karate is one of the best bully prevention methods

Bullies don't respect their peers. They don't take "no" for an answer, and they certainly don't hesitate to get physical. At Karate 4 Excellence LLC in Poughkeepsie, NY, we believe violence is never the answer. However, we also believe kids should have the skills needed to defend themselves in a potentially dangerous situation.

Karate classes for kids are a successful bully prevention method because...

Karate helps insecure kids gain confidence.
Confident kids are less likely to be bullied than shy ones.
Confident kids are able to de-escalate situations involving bullies.
