Coping with Coronavirus: How Juneau karate instructors are kicking it in a time of social distancing

In a quick turnaround, Juneau Karate Academy instructors Nathan Young and Sarah Young closed the public doors to their Mendenhall Valley dojo — and launched an online training academy.

Though it’s been a learning curve, students are showing up and loving the virtual training sessions.
