| Re: Karate for kids in Basel
Hi,
I did a quick Google for "karate" "basel" and "kinder" and came up with a few clubs in the area that cater for kids.
One of the sites mentioned "kids from 7 years" - I have no idea if it applies to all and it could well be the lower age limit is imposed by the federations to which the clubs are attached.
All the sites are in German - though if you pass the text through Google Translate or Babelfish I imagine you will get the info you need.
if I were you, I would go along to a couple of the dojos on a kids training night and see what the atmosphere is like etc, and have a word with the sensei (trainer) about your son coming along.
I'm into Aikido myself and I found joining the local club in Kleinbasel was a nice way to meet a few locals and to improve my command of the language - I imagine the karate would have similar side-benefits for your son.
Cheers,
Nick
