Chief Master Christopher Barela
8th Degree Black Belt
For over two decades, I've seen countless children transform into confident champions through the magic of Martial Arts. It's not just about self-defense; it's about cultivating laser-sharp focus, unwavering discipline, and radiant confidence that shine in classrooms, homes, and on every life stage.
Imagine your child conquering complex tasks with the calm focus of a black belt, setting and achieving goals with unwavering determination, and radiating inner strength that fuels leadership and positive classroom presence. Martial Arts goes beyond physical skills, nurturing invaluable tools like stress management, emotional regulation, and social skills that forge strong connections and pave the way for success.
We specialize in guiding kids and teens, even at-risk youth, providing positive outlets, a supportive environment for building routines, and dedicated mentorship that unlocks their potential. The results speak for themselves: higher academic performance, improved behavior, and a generation of confident, resilient champions ready to face any challenge.
Don't wait to unleash your child's inner champion. Contact us today and witness the transformative power of Martial Arts.

Diamond Kids Karate as been a lifesaver for my grandson. The whole team of staff are friendly and kind. He really needed something for an outlet of all his energy.
Karate has been a great self-esteem booster. The personal development they add with their program it’s amazing. I would recommend checking them out and seeing what they offer. We are a fan!
Holly Porter - St George
All three of my kids have been going to Diamond kids for seven years now and have moved up through the ranks until they are instructors. It's not just a karate center.
They treat my sons and daughter like family and have been there for them through all the good times and bad times.
Master Barela knows what he's doing and excels at helping rowdy kids learn to be responsible, honorable, adults.

My kids love going to karate!
They look forward to it every week. They work hard, play hard and the things they learn apply in and out of the dojo.
I love seeing the growth in my kids!
