Well done traditional martial arts instruction.

Fantastic dojo with excellent, knowledgeable teachers. Sensei Kleppin, Sensei Belahi, Sensei Beier, And Sensei Keding are all wonderful individuals and bring a joy to their arts that is hard to find elsewhere. Also, one of the only places in central Illinois to learn Iaido (Japanese sword) or Kobudo (variety of Japanese weapons). I took classes there for a decade, and if I still lived in Champaign/Urbana I’d still be there! My experience there had a profound impact on my life that I know will never fade.

My son studies kobudo and aikido here. He has been a student for almost 7 years. The instructors are knowledgeable, skilled, and patient. I appreciate all that they have done to help shape my son in to the fine young man he has become. I would recommend the Kobudokan to anyone one who is interested in the martial arts.

I've been training in karate here for a bit more than 2 years now.The instructors are knowledgeable in their arts, skillful, and now how to push you where you need it. What I've most appreciated about the training methodology at Kobudokan is that practical applications of techniques are taught, while still staying rooted in the tradition.This is an excellent school to learn traditional martial arts with a focus on practical self-defense in a fun and safe environment.
