We specialize in karate for children and a variety of self defense for adults including Tai Chi, Womens' Self Defense, Pressure Point Fighting, and Special Needs Karate.
History
Established in 1980.
Learning Center began as an offshoot of a Shotokan school. After many years studying Kenpo, Jui Jitsu, Pressure Points, and Tai Chi, our style American-Te was developed.
John Hagman and Cody Robyn took over the Norwood location is 2003, joining it with their Mansfield School, which had been under their ownership since 1997. LCMA Canton was opened at Excel Studios in 2014.
