Ages 13–17
Youth karate at Douvris gives teenagers ages 13 to 17 structure, purpose, and a positive peer community during their most formative years, backed by a WKC-certified path toward black belt.
Youth Karate gives teenagers structure, purpose, and a positive community during their most formative years.
Our WKC-certified curriculum challenges them physically and mentally, refining technique, sparring, and self-defense while continuing belt progression toward a black belt. Classes build genuine fitness and skill, but just as importantly they teach goal-setting, accountability, and how to stay composed under pressure. These are lessons that pay off far beyond the mats.
Teens train alongside peers and mentors who hold them to a high standard and celebrate their progress. It's a healthy, screen-free environment that builds discipline, resilience, and leadership, and for those who want it, a pathway into competition and into our leadership program. Many of our most dedicated youth go on to become assistant instructors themselves.
Youth Karate is offered at Douvris locations across Ottawa. Book a Kickstart membership and give your teen a place to grow.
