What is The Dale McCutcheon American Karate System?

The Dale McCutcheon American Karate System has been formed from 12 systmes of Karate and Kung Fu. This system stresses the potentials of the individual.

All people are different mentally as well as physically. So our students are instructed in methods that will work for them personally.  In essence, one particualar style or system can be limiting at times. The emphasis of my system is to build and broaden a persons mental and physical capabilities; and to be realistic self-defense principles geared to each individual.

Tiny Tigers (Karate Preschool)

The Dale McCutcheon Academy has consistently been the leader in Martial Arts training for children. We have had children's programs in effect for many years. The Dale McCutcheon Tiny Tiger Program for children ages 3-5 years is known through the country; and is the most imitated in the Martial Arts Industry.

Youth Programs

The older children in regular Karate classes have incentives to get good grades in school. The Dale McCutcheon Academy offers a Junior Black Belt to children under age 17, but they must have and maintain the equivalent of a "B" average before they may test. A note from their teachers indicating they are unable to reach this level voids this requirement.

Children come out of their shells, are more out-going, and begin to partipate and contribute more to the group. They also make friends easier. Their new "self-image" and wilingness to try harder allowes their attention span to increase and their motor skills improve. They are more willing to start and complete tasks both at home and in the classroom. The apparent "awkwardness" of the teenager is controlled through their co-ordination development. They take pride in their growing bodies and trim away childhood chubbiness, firm their muscles, look and feel better with greater energy and stamina. Children are taught to concentrate properly, which helps them to learn faster in the classroom and to be more able to set and obtain goals!
