Train in our beautiful dedicated 'dojo' where we offer a traditional karate environment under expert instruction.
At Parkland Shotokan Karate Association (PSKA), we believe that martial arts training is about more than physical technique — it’s about confidence, awareness, and personal growth. Our programs are built on the strong foundation of traditional Shotokan karate, blending time-tested martial arts principles with practical, real-world application. Whether you’re looking to develop personal protection skills, build mental resilience, or simply improve your fitness and focus, PSKA offers expertise and training options for everyone.

CSKA Shotokan Karate - Beginners
CSKA Shotokan Karate syllabus for White to Yellow belts. Youth 7 - 12 Yrs and Teen & Adult classes.
Beginners Build the Basics:
At the white and yellow belt levels, the focus is on learning proper stances, simple strikes, and basic kata (forms). This stage is less about power and more about learning how to move your body correctly. Students develop balance, coordination, and fundamental discipline—the building blocks for everything that comes after.
CSKA Shotokan Karate - Intermediate
CSKA Shotokan Karate syllabus for Orange to Green belts. Youth 7 - 12 Yrs and Teen & Adult classes.
Intermediate Growth and Refinement:
As students progress into the orange and green belt levels, training becomes more dynamic. Techniques are refined, combinations are introduced, and sparring is practiced in a controlled way. Fitness naturally improves as endurance, timing, and body control grow. Students begin to understand how the pieces of karate fit together.
CSKA Shotokan Karate - Advanced
CSKA Shotokan Karate syllabus for Purple to Black Belt levels. All ages.
Advanced Mastery and Leadership:
At the higher levels (purple, brown, and black belt), karateka focus on advanced kata, application (bunkai), and free sparring. Training sharpens speed, power, and strategy, but it also cultivates mental resilience and leadership. Students discover how far they’ve come—not only in physical ability but in confidence and character.
Women's Only Karate
Empowerment-focused class, self-defense, fitness through karate.
Join a welcoming space where women of all backgrounds can train in the art of Shotokan Karate—combining tradition, mindfulness, and empowerment.

Individual Programs
Location: #228 - 636 King Street Spruce Grove AB T7X 4K5
Whether you’re looking to enhance personal safety, improve fitness, or develop a stronger mindset, PSKA offers group and individual programs for every need — from Women’s Self-Defense and General Self-Defense to Private Instruction. Each session is taught in a respectful, encouraging environment that helps students of all ages and experience levels reach their full potential.
Women's Self-Defense
In these 2-Hour seminars, you will be introduced to self-defense techniques designed to be aware of and escape common threats.
