Music City Karate: Seido Karate in Catonsville, MD
Classes for Adults - Teens - Kids
Catonsville Seido Karate is proud to be located in "Music City Maryland", bringing the martial arts to Baltimore County's Arts and Entertainment District!
We provide traditional Japanese karate training for self-development, self-defense, and physical fitness for adults of all ages, teens, and children ages 4 and up. We're in the Mount DeSales / Edmondson Ridge neighborhood of Catonsville -- convenient to Route 40 west and the Beltway, and just 15 minutes from downtown Baltimore.
We love absolute beginners! No prior martial arts, sports, or athletic experience is necessary. We are welcoming to those who never thought of themselves as athletic -- the artists, the musicians, the theater kids, the STEM nerds, the poets. Let us help you find your warrior side. (Of course we welcome the natural athlete too!)
Our adult/teen class welcomes students 13+ -- older adults are welcome, it is never too late to start. Whether you're in your teens or your 70s you are welcome to join us and explore the benefits of Seido Karate training.
Our youth and family class is geared towards elementary and middle school age students, age 7-14. Parents are welcome to train with their children.
And our peewee class is open to students age 4-6.
Our chief instructor is Jun Shihan Tom Swiss, a sixth-degree black belt with forty years experience. (And an amateur singer/songwriter!)
Training includes fundamental techniques (kihon) and forms (kata) of traditional karate, controlled sparring practice (kumite), and seated meditation (zazen), as well as practical self-defense applications drawn from a variety of sources.
