Instructor

Your safety is our business

Karyn Smith has been involved in Martial Arts for more than 15 years and currently holds the grade of 4^th Dan. In addition to being an active competitor internationally and nationally she is also a professional instructor at JKA South Karate Club. Karyn also conducts Fitness and Body conditioning classes for women.

She has successfully completed the Exercise Science course with the Institute for Fitness Professionals and a Pregnancy Exercise Specialty  course with the Institute in conjunction with Tina Otte. She has been awarded Protea Colours for Karate and has won several medals in international competitions.

 

Her years of experience in running a successful karate dojo and Tae Bo classes have led naturally to the teaching of Self Defence Classes and Courses for individual groups as well as corporate groups.

With very few Self Defence courses being specifically aimed at women only, she is proving that there is indeed a definite demand for such a course. As a woman, she is in a unique position to understand the different approach to self defence between men and women - specifically  the flight or fight response. She also understands the underlying psychological make-up of women and their natural instincts as well as their physical and emotional limitations and strengths.
