TUESDAY – THURSDAY Tigers
4:30 pm - 5:00 pm FLOOR 1
Our Tiny Tigers program is a detailed
curriculum that focuses on improving pre-
school age children's basic motor, listening and socialization skills.
We believe that the time between the
ages of 3 and 5 are the most important years of a child's development.
Our program will enhance positive development in a fun and motiva-
ting way.
The Tiny Tigers curriculum consists of developing
8 major skill sets that are
necessary for participation in any sport or activity. The 8
requirements are
Focus, Teamwork, Control, Balance, Memory,
Discipline, Fitness and Coordination. Tiny
Tigers also learn about fitness and basic techniques through a
playful game-like experience
There is a stripe and colored belt incentive program in place to
track achievements and learning
levels. The program instruction is based upon the POSITIVE DIALOG
RESPONSE method, so that your child will always feel successful,
even if disciplined.
What is POSITIVE DIALOG RESPONSE? Whatever effort a child makes
is validated with a
positive response. Even if a child makes a mistake, their effort is
acknowledged, and then their technique is corrected with positive
dialog. We incorporate a skill sticker program to add the
incentive they may need to excel.

At Shihan Cullen's Academy of Martial Arts Studies, we encourage
our kids to excel in
academics, physical health and socialization. Our programs develop
important mental skills & strength of character in
our cadet students. We guide them on their path of self
realization and help them to reach all of their goals, not only in
Martial Arts, but in all areas of their life. Our
programs and teachers instill motivation, competency,
self-empowerment, respect and discipline.
Our students develop self-discipline, character and goal
setting, respect for self and others, and the attitude to persevere
even when times get challenging. They
improve their coordination and balance and learn to control their
behavior even in tough situations while improving
concentration and focus. The health benefits will
be appreciated by them and their parents. Finally, we urge them to
use their extra energy in positive directions

TRADITIONAL OKINAWAN/JAPANESE/CHINESE
ATERU GOJU-RYU KARATE-JUTSU
(Age 16 and Above)
BEGINNERS CLASS AND INTERMEDIATE
CLASSES OFFERED 4 DAYS A WEEK
MONDAY-
WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY 6:30pm – 8:00pm
SATURDAY CLASS 10:30 am till NOON.
Learn Ateru Goju-Ryu Karate-Do from its creator,
Shihan Cullen. He has trained international winners in Kata and Kumite and has had his
full contact fighters compete in the UFC, in Japan and many other countries.
This "close in" style is the most traditional way to go at The
Academy and it requires a high level of dedication. When karate kids students grow out of
their category they will move to the next level - Ateru Goju.
Grandmaster Cullen received his Sokeship from 9 international sokeship councils due to
his efforts to bring back the Kung-Fu
roots (5 hand systems) and reinfused them into the art.
Adult students are encouraged to
work at their own pace and comfort
level. Confidence can only come through constant
growth and improvement and if you overdo it and
get injured – growth can’t happen. The health, strength, focus and
stress relief benefits alone are worth involvement in this class.
You will sculpt a leaner body, gain
better focus at whatever else you do in life and know that the
arts you are practicing may help save your life or your loved ones
someday.
