Mommy and Toddler Kata Group

Bring your toddler and meet moms from the Grafton, Westborough and Shrewsbury areas at the Mommy and Toddler Group held at Perro Shotokan Karate at Grafton Crossing.  Kata is a branch of Karate training where students learn pre-arranged, dance-like movements that promote strength, flexibility and well-being, much like learning ballet movements.  Kata techniques can also develop memorization skills and self-defense techniques that can be expanded upon at the age of 5 or 6.  Moms and toddlers can train together in the 45 minute Kata Group, and then stay for lunch or coffee at one of the Grafton Crossing eateries.  The introductory training session on October 31st is free, and starting on November 5th, Kata sessions are $10 per mommy/toddler pair (moms can bring up to two toddlers for the $10 price).  More information at Grafton Crossing and Perro Shotokan Karate.
