Welcome

Welcome to the website of Monadnock Kempo Kara-te.   Classes are held at the Marlborough Community House in Marlborough, New Hampshire, just 5 minutes east of Keene.  Set in the heart of the beautiful Monadnock region, Monadnock Kempo Kara-te is southern New Hampshire’s connection to Kyusho/Tuite Jitsu, the Dillman Method of self-defense.

Monadnock Kempo Kara-te offers one of the more effective means of self-defense and life protection programs in the area.  Not only are students exposed to a unique method of training, they also learn in a positive, encouraging, and non-competitive atmosphere.  Although centuries old, this ancient Okinawan martial art provides a paramount method of conditioning the mind, body, and spirit.  Students learn sets of movements that can yield great holistic benefits such as:

Reduced stress

Lower blood pressure

Increased flexibility and mobility

Improved self-confidence

Monadnock Kempo Kara-te is unique among other kara-te programs because of the integration of Kyusho and Tuite, two arts that are not included in most other "modern karate" programs.  Integrating these arts into self-defense tactics adds both effectiveness and efficiency, making it most suitable for both men and women of any size and fitness level.
