Local Kids Make Their Debut in Martial Arts Demo Team at Parenting OC Jamboree
Lake Forest, CA – Locally owned martial arts school Villari’s Martial Arts and Well-Being Center of Orange County is bringing its Demo Team to the Eight Annual Parenting OC (Magazine) Jamboree. For many Team members, this will be their big debut. Comprising kids attending pre-school through high school from Lake Forest and surrounding areas such as Rancho Santa Margarita, Irvine and Laguna Hills, the Demo Team promises to kick, punch and kiai* their way into the hearts of visitors.
The Demo Team members all share a common trait: their love for Shaolin Kempo Karate and a determined commitment to their craft that is matched by their parents’ enthusiasm and support. They have been training hard for their moment and enjoying the camaraderie of being in a Team where everyone encourages each other, sharpening their self-defense and leadership skills, and forging lasting friendships along the way. Student instructors, family and friends will also be out in full force to cheer them on and help out at the school’s booth during the event to give out special deals and prizes.
Come out and support the kids at this event! The demo is scheduled for 11:00 AM on Sunday 3/9/14 at 5 Federation Way, Irvine, CA 92603.
