History
Scott Newman began New Man's Karate as a family oriented facility that emphasizes the needs of the individual student so each person's training is successful and personally rewarding. We maintain a class size of 15 or less so every student knows they are a part of our family and not just a number. We have a wonderful core group of students who attend regular and train hard. We have flexible class schedules with 8 beginning classes throughout the week, the LOWEST rates in the area, and classes for home schoolers. We also host a number of free extra-circular activities throughout the year such as; annual Santa Cruz Summer Beach Training trip, Swing Dance Parties, Christmas Party & more. It is a privilege and blessing that we can teach the Martial Arts full time and be able to focus on our students' success. We offer Tiny Tot Classes (ages 3-6), an adult Hand-to-Hand Combat Class, adult Ju Jitsu Class, and Martial Art Classes with the oldest student currently at 80 years.
