KFMA has served the Kingstowne community of Fairfax County, Virginia since June, 2001. The foundation of our program is Motobu-ha Shito-ryu Karatedo. We build strong minds, bodies and spirits through concentrated practice of fundamental karate skills, kata and applied movement. Our program strives to train the individual to utilize relaxed, balanced movement and power generated from core muscles to create powerful, graceful movement that has practical self-defense value. Skills covered include framing & posture, footwork, blocking & parrying, striking & kicking, and fundamental grappling. Skill sets include both individual and group practice.
