Welcome to Young Forest Karate

Young Forest Karate has small beginnings. When Sensei Jason LeClair moved to Texas in 2019, he started Young Forest Karate in July of that year. He rented the Community Center in Hawkins Texas for two nights per week. Sensei Jason taught many students over the years but in 2024 he knew it was time to find a permanent home for YFK and found that home in Big Sandy, Texas. We are a small dojo with a big love for Karate. We truly believe that karate training can improve your life. Karate training has been shown to improve concentration and focus which will extend to all other aspects of student’s lives.
