The flyers will be out soon. Anyone who has been in this event knows how much fun it is and proceeds go to local and national kids programs. So it is a win-win situation.One year we did so well that a pocket park was created at Casey House on Cedar ave. with OUR NAME ON IT. Were so proud of this. These classes are run by our black belts who have given up their private time to educate and train our members on kata, sparring and weapons competition. We even have events for our beginners. Many who dont attend, normally regret it. AND Nunchuckas the Chun Kuk Do Dragon will be there, Yes thats right, he said he will be there to cheer on all of us. and Yes at our Pep rally.. Keep your eyes open for all the latest news on this spectatular 10 year anneversary of our kids only tournament and our 40th year in Business. |

That's right, The Presti Karate Centers is 40 years old in 2010. Although I can't remember when it opened, Actually I dont think it ever closed when Mr Pat Johnson left town when we took the original name. Kim Studio. We went though many name changes, Lets see, Kim Studio, Kim Karate Studio, Presti School of Karate,and now Prest Karate Centers!Im sure in 2010, we will have some sort of 40 year celebration. |

| We're The Only! |
| Posted On 05-07-2008 |
One of our members said the following that we thought was interesting.
1- We are the oldest school in Niagara Falls
2- We are the only full time school in Niagara. We're open 7days a week and teach 6 days a week.
3- We're the only school who requires our instructors to take instructor's classes.
4- We're the only school that has children's class broken down to age specific. You can't teach a 6 year old the same way you teach a 10 year old.
5-We are the only school that has classes broken up by ranks. So beginners won't be in a class with members who have been with us for a while.
Athough there are many more reasons to come to Presti Karate, Stop in and see whay we are the "The Powerful Difference" |
