I’m Ali Patton but April calls me Smiley. I started karate in 2012. I earned my black belt in 2016 and have been on the leadership team for several years. When not at work or karate I spend time with my dogs Ein and Eide. I love to go kayaking.

Beginning Super Kids
Beginning Super Kids is composed of 5 and 6 year old kids. You can start anytime we have an opening because it is only first time kids. There are no advanced kids in the class they are all in a different class. There is no equipment to buy because we don't have them hitting each other. (We save that until they are about 7 1/2 years old) The class meets on Monday and Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. until 4:45 p.m. You can stay in the front waiting area while they are in class or leave them. But you do have to come back and get them after class. The class curriculum is specifically designed for that age group and the instructors have been trained on how to teach that age group.
