Karate, safety awareness classes slated at club

    SHELTON - The Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley's spring session of KidSafe Karate will be open for registration from 9-11 a.m. April 14 at the Clubhouse, One Positive Place.
    Classes begin April 21 and run through June 23 for a total of nine lessons (no lessons May 26). Cost is $8 per lesson with a one-time $10 registration fee. Uniforms are not required but are highly recommended, and may be purchased at class for $30. KidSafe staff will fit your child with the proper size.
     KidSafe Self Defense Karate and Safety Awareness is for boys and girls ages 5-15.
    The program is designed to enhance self-esteem, self-discipline, and safety awareness.
    Students are placed into classes according to age and ability. A black belt instructor teaches beginning, intermediate, and advanced techniques for self defense only. Self-discipline and defense, rather than aggressiveness, are promoted.
    Weekly safety flyers will focus on a wide range of topics including stranger safety, fire safety, and more.
    For information and class schedules call KidSafe, 800-850-0800 or visit www.BGC-LNV.com.
