We invite you to meet us at our Bethlehem location and get to know more about our programs! Our team of caring, experienced instructors is dedicated to helping each student achieve their unique goals, while also building character, inner strength, and confidence. We believe that martial arts training is about much more than punches and kicks — it’s about developing mental and emotional discipline, as well as physical strength
Karate
Our Bethlehem location offers karate training for ages 3 and up. The Little Ninjas program develops essential skills for our 3-5 year-old preschoolers, like focus, control, balance, and coordination, all while staying active and having fun!
Our family-oriented karate program teaches more than self-defense: we teach character values and life skills through the active challenges of karate. Students develop respect, confidence, self-discipline, and leadership from dedicated, expert instructors.
ADULT Karate
For those looking for a more meditative practice, we also offer Tai Chi classes for adults. Our Tai Chi classes focus on developing balance and strength while reducing stress and anxiety in daily life. Tai Chi is completely beginner-friendly and requires no prior experience or fitness level. It’s a great way to great community while improving overall health.
Why Martial Arts
with LVMA?
Beyond the physical benefits of martial arts training, there are many mental and emotional benefits as well. Our students learn to focus their minds and develop the self-discipline necessary to tackle difficult tasks and succeed in pursuing their goals. They also learn to remove negative influences from their lives and surround themselves with positive, supportive people. Leadership is a cornerstone of our martial arts training, and every student is encouraged to lead by example both inside and outside of our dojo.
Community
Involvement
At Lehigh Valley Martial Arts, we are committed to making a positive impact on our community. We support local non-profit organizations such as The Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley and Sights for Hope.
Sights for Hope transforms the lives of people with visual impairments in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley and Monroe County by removing the barriers to their independence and success. Services include life skills education, technology solutions, individualized support, vision screenings for children, and community education programs – promote self-sufficiency and inclusion.
When a parent hears the words “your child has cancer,” their world is forever altered. PCFLV is able to immediately step in and offer assistance and support to the entire family. PCFLV embraces the pediatric cancer journey alongside children and their families, moving forward as a community with love, hope, and smiles.
