About Us

 

Celebrating our 16th year serving Watertown and its surrounding towns.
 

The Charland Institute is the largest martial arts facility in New England (we think). With 3 workout floors, we offer Karate, Kajukido, Kardio Kickboxing. Local Cheerleading teams use our facility for training because of it's high ceilings.
 

Karate is a great source of exercise for adults, as well as getting an education in self-defense and tournament sparring (if you choose).

Kids simply find it fun while they get all of the mental benefits their parents want them to develop. We teach a lesson of the week at the Charland Institute, based on these mental benefits. Therefore confidence, self esteem, standing up to peer pressure and many more are actually taught here. All students must learn the student creed;


I must develop myself in a positive manner, and avoid anything that could reduce my mental growth or physical health.

I must develop self discipline in order to bring out the best in myself and others.

I must use common sense before self defense and never be abusive or offensive.

This is a black belt school, we are dedicated, we are motivated, we are on a quest to be our best. Tang Soo!!

 

 

The Charland Institute starts children as early as four years old and up to and through 104 years old. We have a special program just for ages 4-6 called Karate Kids. Most people start their children off in our trial lesson program. At only $19.95 its a great deal and it includes an official karate uniform. This gives the child a chance to see what karate classes are like, and also gives the parents a chance to see how we do things around here. We believe in teaching the martial arts through positive reinforcement. That is to say that we focus on the positive things the children are displaying in class and encourage more behavior like it.
