Builds Self-Esteem

Confidence comes with achievement.  At your Indianapolis karate school, United Kempo Karate Schools, your self-esteem level will get a boost with every new move you master and every belt you earn. Adults and children who struggle with a low sense of self-worth usually become more confident as time progresses while they’re enrolled in a martial arts class.

Improves Flexibility

This is one of the first areas of change you will notice.  Good flexibility promotes good posture, physical appearance, and will continue to improve your life as you age.

Teaches Goal Setting & Attainment

United Kempo Karate Schools system is based on a series of colored belts that signify the student's degree of skill.  When you strive toward a new belt, you learn valuable lessons about setting and reaching goals.

Instills a Sense of Respect

Learning any martial arts requires respect of instructors and others.  When learning karate, jiujitsu, or MMA, students will learn lessons in respect along with new techniques.

Improves Mental Concentration

Students will learn to relax, concentrate deeply, and thoroughly for greater lengths of time.

Improves Balance & Coordination

Instinct, agility, and speed will all improve.  This benefit will carry over into other activities of life.

Fosters Self-Discipline

Students at United Kempo Karate Schools learn self-restraint and discipline instead of instant gratification.  Martial arts continually reminds students of the importance of self-discipline.

Encourages Non-Violent Conflict Resolution

United Kempo Karate Schools, a premier Indianapolis martial arts school, teaches students how to defend themselves in the event that they cannot avoid an altercation, but always stresses using peaceful, non-violent means when possible.

What People Say

  • We have two martial arts schools within 5 minutes of our house but we drive 25 minutes to attend UKKS because they are focused on teaching students and not necessarily what they can afford to pay. My family has been attending for over 4 years and we couldn't be happier.

    Nathan ByrerParent & Student

  • Mr. Mattocks was patient with us and answered all our questions. My son was always picked on by the neighborhood bully and other kids. Mr. Mattocks has helped build my sons confidence and showed him how to deal with the bully. The bully no longer bothers my son. I highly recommend this school.

    Preshus VannParent

  • I met with Master Mattocks to discuss the type of training the school provides. It was a great discussion and I signed up. I have been involved ever since. Master Mattocks was patient with me and answered all of my questions.

    Jason HermannInstructor & Student

    Kelita MorganParent

  • UKKS, Mr. Mattocks and staff have given my child the confidence she was lacking. Not only do they teach my child how to protect herself, but also teach her the self-esteem, confidence, patience and focus she will use throughout life. We love UKKS and staff. They are family.
