The Town of Florence Parks and Recreation Department is excited to offer a class for kids that teaches discipline, control and fitness.

Learn “American Tang Soo Do” karate, which includes a combination of self-defense and grappling skills. Discover everything from why you must bow, to kicks and punches. As the class progresses, put your skills and knowledge together to create a “Kata” or form.

The instructor, Angel Berlanga, holds a second degree black belt in karate with over 20 years of experience in various martial arts. He has designed a class for students who are new to karate.

The class is held from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm (ages 6 to 10 years) and 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm (ages 11 to 17 years) on Thursday evenings at the Florence Fitness Center (133 N. Main Street).

The class fee is $25.00 per month and open to kids from 6 to 17 years old.
