Young Dragons
Kids class Beginning 2026!

Pear Tree Self Defense Center is happy to welcome all students aged 12-17 to a new martial arts program! In these classes students will strengthen their bodies with conditioning and cardio, increase flexibility, and develop the coordination and techniques that will be the foundation for complete self defense training. While there will be some direct self defense application, the focus of the class is the development of strength, flexibility, and coordination, and any self defense applications are tailored to the ages of the students.
 

(Note for parents: all instructors are certified

in CPR, First Aid, and Anti-Bullying/Abuse Recognition courses)

The aforementioned training comes from Li Shu Ziwei Do, which is the culmination of Master Sifu Hutchings' 55+ years in martial arts, derived from his training in many styles including Jeet Kune Do, Wing Chun, American Freestyle Karate, Goju Ryu, Moo Duk Kwan TKD.

Li Shu was recognized and certified in February of '24 by the International Combat Martial Arts Union Association.
