Riverdale Recreation Commission is planning to offer a karate class with local black belt instructor Adam Thompson.

We are planning for a Tuesday night class from 7 to 8 p.m. that will begin in January and run until the end of May. We need 10-15 registrants to run the class, which will be held at Riverdale Community Centre’s Redfern Hall. 

We encourage anyone, especially children, who are not involved with any local team sports to sign up. Karate promotes self control, discipline, strength and fundamental movements for physical development. Anyone interested in this possibility is asked to contact me at 204-328-7753 or email  This email address is being protected from spambots.

A try-it-for-free class will be available if we are able to garner enough interest. Classes are for all experience levels and for ages five and up. Rivers had a very active karate club from 1998-2013; perhaps it’s time to revive that membership.
