NKMB’s Karate Ministry exists with the mission to Promote Physical Health, Train Peacemakers, & Share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our ministry operates in partnership with Heiwa Karate-do under the chief instruction of Sensei Deo Namwira, 5th Dan.
Our style, traditional Meibukan Goju-Ryu Karate (IMGKA) is a great family activity and a sport that is accessible to all ages (starting age 5). While promoting a healthy and active lifestyle, our karate style encourages peacemaking in that the primary goal of our training is to prevent violence. All students receive internationally recognized certification for belt levels through the IMGKA.
As a ministry of this church and as a member of Karate for Christ International we also seek to encourage one's walk in the Christian faith and engage our larger community through our study of karate. Our instruction includes a short devotional & prayer time mid-class.
