What will Martial Arts training do for me?

Martial Arts training will help you get in great physical shape and improve your mental and emotional health, too!

How is training in the Martial Arts different from other Columbia exercise programs?

Hi, My name is Master JD Rifkin,

Martial arts training develops greater inner peace, and teaches you how to truly relax and reach your full potential.

Unlike other physical activities (sports, weight training, etc.), practicing the martial arts doesn’t necessarily require great physical strength, athleticism, youth, size, or weight for success.

Everyone learns and progresses at his or her own pace regardless of age, and the martial arts develop the entire person—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Part of the Rifkin Professional Karate Center curriculum includes setting and achieving challenging but attainable goals, which builds the confidence to succeed under pressure.

We call this indomitable spirit.

Working out in a gym or playing team sports can’t provide the internal and external fitness that comes from the martial arts, and certainly won’t teach you valuable self-defense skills!
The Martial Arts improve cardiovascular health, endurance, strength, and flexibility.

Transform your body into a leaner, more muscular state, and wrap your mind around learning self-discipline, focus, and confidence—you can do anything you put your mind to!

Sincerely,
Master JD Rifkin
