#1 Reason: Why play-based?

⁠White Tiger Karate LLC in Franklin is honestly the best I've seen for kids. Experts in Child Development, the focus is on the whole person. Body, mind and spirit. The kids get a work out but wow do they all seem so proud of themselves and their new found abilities. The owner/instructor, Sharyl Geisert, is unbelievably great working with the kids. She teaches structure and self control, listening and obedience that builds the kids up with a sense of pride and honor in themselves. I am so amazed everytime I go there. What an excellent program they have for kids. I can't say enough about this amazing place. It certainly builds kids self confidence and self esteem. The kids just beam. If your at all looking for a positive and meaningful outlet/program for your child, go visit. Go watch. Talk to Sharyl or another instructor. This is all about the whole person and being the best of oneself. It's so worth it. Check it out and its website. Recommend to others. Your kids deserve the best. It certainly can change lives for the better; in body, mind, and spirit.

My girls started at White Tiger at the end of August after doing dance, gymnastics and softball and wanting to try something new. The ninja zone program has built their confidence tremendously over the last several months. We have seen growth in them both not only physically but also mentally. I can’t thank Sensei Sharyl enough for the time she puts into encouraging, motivating and pushing them both safely outside of their comfort zone at times knowing their capabilities. I cannot recommend White Tiger enough. If you are on the fence of trying martial arts or ninja zone give it a try. It is far more than just a physical sport, she works with every aspect of growth development for children and adults. Thank you Sharyl!
