ABOUT KRIS'S TACTICAL KARATE
ZANCHIN KARATE
Our primary goal is to train practitioners to defend themselves and protect others. Zanchin Karate is a blend of multiple martial arts designed to be effective on the street. We teach safety, environmental awareness, and to only use our karate when forced to. Our dojo is a place where students of all ages and levels can learn and grow in a supportive and positive environment. Zanchin Karate is a blend of Shotokan, American Kenpo, Jiujitsu, Boxing, and Special Operations Hand-to-Hand Combat that is designed to develop well-rounded martial artists who can handle themselves when trouble comes.

OUR PROGRAMS
We offer a variety of programs designed to cater to different age groups and skill levels. We tailor our art to the individual in an attempt to maximize each unique person's potential. Our comprehensive training encompasses traditional kata, self-defense techniques, sparring, weapons training, and physical conditioning, ensuring a well-rounded program for our students.
​
Monthly tuition covers the cost of uniforms, belts, and testing. We keep track of each student's progress so we can confidently tell them when it's time to test and what needs improved.

SUCCESS STORIES
"Sensei Baehr is a gifted martial artist. He has an incredible ability to break down concepts in ways that help others easily grasp the meaning. If you're looking for someone that cares for his student's ability to defend themselves as well as developing good character, then come check him out."

"We have been with Sensei Baehr since the beginning of the Karate program. Our son was one of the first karateka to begin and we still, to this day, participate. We now have our oldest daughter training here as well. Our children are learning the necessary skills to protect themselves and others while also having fun. We are beyond grateful to this program and consider everyone at the dojo our adopted family. The dojo has easily become our second home over the last four years and feel confident that our children are being given the training they need to successfully protect themselves in the real world."

"I'm a parent of two of Sensei's purple belt students. My son and daughter have been under Kris's instruction for 5 years - since the dojo opened. It has been a very purposeful component of their foundation.
Kris is a passionate, highly-trained instructor in karate/self-defense, but most importantly, an ethical, compassionate human being.
He has drawn so much out of our children in regard to karate, but in the areas of character development as well.
Discipline, peer relations, leadership and responsibility are areas where I have seen my children grow.
Our family is grateful for Kris's Tactical Karate and how it has inspired our children in these formative years."
