Action Karate has a core principle of constant improvement to maintain a high level of quality character-based martial arts education. Head instructors train outside of class about 10 hours per week. Every three months, certification courses are held for aspiring instructors on best practices in martial arts. Enrolling in this course is for people  who want to pursue martial arts as a career step, or to serve as a coach on the mat, or be a more active karate parent off the mat. Attending the certification course does not require commitment beyond it unless you choose to pursue it. You're committing to one morning of training. These courses are held at central Action Karate locations bringing together instructors from various schools in one place to maintain a high level of skill.
