String Program

The String Program is designed for beginners to learn the skills and techniques of the violin, viola, cello, and bass. Students take instruction from a professor who guides them through a structured method of mastery. This program is aimed to get the students ready for the ensemble level where they are able to perform musical selections in a group.

Judo

The Judo program is designed to develop both physical strength and great mental discipline. Students take instruction from world master, Pan-American and National Kata Champion, Sensei Roberto Alvarez. In judo, students learn techniques for takedowns from a standing position, as well as techniques that allow you to pin your opponent to the ground, control them, and apply various submission moves. Judo helps build student character in the following virtues: courtesy, courage, friendship, honesty, honor, modesty, respect, and self-control.
