Juniors is Desert Mountain Kenpo's karate program for children ages 8-13. Our fun, energetic classes build confidence and focus while teaching values and ethics, so kids grow in character as well as skill. Led by Master Instructor Michael Keschinger ("Mr. K"), who has taught martial arts since 1991, the program serves families in NW Tucson, Marana, and Oro Valley.

Build Confidence & Success!
Do you want these things for them?
That's what Juniors is built for.
Practical Bully Prevention: We teach children how to recognize conflict early, utilize confident verbal boundaries, and apply effective defensive Kenpo mechanics if an unsafe situation requires it
Academic Focus & Discipline: Our structured class tracking systems directly reinforce positive listening habits, long-term goal setting, and respect for others—valuable traits that carry straight into the classroom.
Functional Coordination: We swap screen time for targeted conditioning, agility drills, and strength progressions built specifically for developing athletes and those who wish to improve physical perfomance.


Being a parent myself and working with kids for over 30 years, I know it can be challenging to get them motivated. Our reward programs help kids see how reaching short-term goals leads to success in life.
