We Specialize in Children Only: That's right -- we don't teach adults. That means everything from our safe, top-of-the-line equipment to the color of our paint is chosen with your child's best interest in mind. Maybe that's why Dawn Barnes Karate Kids was voted Best Martial Arts School by LA Parent, LA Family, and The Daily News. Love-based Teaching Method: We avoid using four letter words like "don't" and "can't, " which negate the growth of your child's confidence. Instead, we encourage children with Sensei Dawn's "Positive Dialogue Response, " the secret to our success in fulfilling our mission statement: To inspire self-esteem in every child! Age-Appropriate Teaching Method: Aside from constant verbal praise, our students earn stickers, patches, and stripes on their belts to reward and reinforce their best efforts.
