About US

We at Golden Tiger Karate are on an endless quest for martial arts excellence. We can overcome many things if we first understand and accept this about ourselves. If we accept the good and the bad about ourselves, it is much easier to accept these things in others. And to be a true martial artist, we must accept nature and continually work on perfecting our character. This daily process should be as routine as waking up in the morning. Everyone has within them the power to be good human beings and to bring this out in one another. That is the true power of a good martial artist. We train our body to be strong, and our mind and spirit to be patient, in order to become the best human beings we can be. Karate is a spiritual endeavor, a way to develop a person as an individual. Everything we learn in the dojo, or training hall, should be applied to everyday life. Karate training is not always easy. Often times it can be very difficult and demanding. This is also true of life.

Exercises that involve the person standing on one leg, is just an example of a pose that builds the strength of the body being able to hold its own weight. Many of the strength building exercises work out the upper body and core abdominal muscles. Yoga also improves endurance and the exercises are done with controlled breathing, which allows more oxygen to flow through the blood system to the muscles, giving the person more energy. Practicing yoga as also been shown to reduce or even eliminate pains such as back pain, and increases pain tolerance overall. Yoga also promotes a high metabolism in the body, making it easier to maintain or lose weight if desired; by stretching and toning the muscles, yoga reduces cellulite that forms around muscles tissue.
