This school has been exactly what my 9 year old needed. Her self esteem and self discipline have both improved. She's more respectful and is really having a great time. She asks me every single day if she can go to karate. Mr Coppock is so great with the kids. Definitely a 5 star experience!

The only Karate Dojo for me for 18 years, now. Mr Coppock loves Kenpo and loves teaching. I have brought friends here, and I have brought my children here. The rates are reasonable, testing is free, and if you don't love it, you can cancel at any time.Mr Coppock teaches basics, footwork, forms, sets, self defense techniques, and sparring. He provides an environment for you to stretch yourself and face new challenges while showing you how to tailor the system to your own unique strengths.It is rare for an instructor to realize they are still a work in progress, and have the confidence to teach... to be the balance between humility and certainty. Dave Coppock is there. He lives the art and encourages you to do the same.

Dave Coppock is an extremely great Karate teacher. My son is 10 years old. He has been taking classes with Mr. Coppock for about a month. His self esteem, confidence and the style is growing by leeps and bounds. I would recommend Coppock to anyone.I am going to start taking classes here as well.
