USK Karate Academy - Coral Springs East

An excellent learning environment for martial arts students. Their Instructors are 2nd to none and they train to standard not time. They are friendly and very willing to help you out if you aren't sure of a particular subject. They are …

We are a USK family! All our kids love it there. And we enjoy that they treat all of us as part of their family. The theme parties are a huge hit with the kids and we as parents like that there is a safe, comfortable and educational place for our kids.

USK Karate Academy is more than just a place to study and train martial arts and learn how to defend yourself, we are family. After trainig for a few years I decided I wanted to join the fire academy to become a firefighter and without the …

If I had to describe USK in one word, I would have to use the term, dedication. Dedication in the way they treat their students, dedication in the way they continually maintain and keep up the school so that there is almost always something …

I took classes at USK from ages 11 to 18. During that time, I earned my second degree Dan (the equivalent to a black belt in other schools).I loved my time there. Under the staffs' careful instruction, I transformed from a painfully shy, nervous child into a much more confident person. Though I no longer practice martial arts, the lessons I learned at USK have helped me immensely in my academic, personal, and professional endeavors. My time at USK taught me about discipline and integrity in a world where so few places seem to teach those things anymore. I was taught to have respect for my elders (I called my professors "sir" and "ma'am" all throughout college on reflex...they were pleasantly surprised :)) and to value hard work. I learned how to be a leader and I learned the value of humility.The instructors are highly skilled and incredibly passionate about what they do; they model the values they teach. They really invest in their students and want them to succeed. I watched my fellow classmates grow and mature alongside me in so many ways as well. I would recommend USK to anyone. Tang Soo Do is more than just a hobby or an after school activity...it can be transforming!

Perhaps one way to look at this school is to think of military schools and how they teach values that carry though to all situations in life. Without the "military discipline" you'd find in a military school USK teaches those values in a way that all can understand. And then they make their students internalize and further understand those values by activities in class. When you add that to getting into fantastic shape and feeling that you can now defend yourself and remove many fears we all have of personal safety you then have an activity that is almost priceless. It will change your life very much for the better.

Our daughter is in USK Karate's MASSTER program, and it's been great. The instructors seem to have endless patience and the team works together to give each individual what they need to grow. We are always amazed at what they can do with the kids.

The staff is amazing. They really made me feel like they cared about the issues I had before signing up. During my visit I spoke with Shelby Sanders and Hans Elie I believe. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I've also had the pleasure of seeing footage and a bit of a training class with some of the younger students. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to practice martial arts.

A very clean, hands on, and healthy environment. All staff members are outstanding and willing to help out. I loved the fact that students of all ages and backgrounds were welcome! They teach the students about respect, focus, and helpful life skills, all while teaching the basics (and way beyond basics too!). I would definitely recommend USK.

USK Karate Academy has been a huge blessing, not only to my 14 year old son, but to his parents as well. My son started training at USK when he was 7 years old. In that time, he has learned so much...not only about how to kick and punch, but about the skills he will need to succeed as an adult. Although I live approximately 40 minutes away from USK, my husband and I decided to choose USK, even though there are a large number of other martial arts training facilities that are located much nearer to our home. This decision was based upon the values training, and the high level of integrity that USK was and is known for. Any one of the martial arts facilities could have taught my son how to kick and punch, but few, if any, have committed to teaching values, integrity, self-discipline and honor as is done at USK. My son has learned how to defend himself rather than how to become a bully. He has learned the value of respect for his parents, his country and the family. He has learned the value of EARNING success, rather than having the shallow "achievement" of everyone earning a prize just for showing up. And from this he has learned to respect not only himself, but others. I am very grateful to have found USK Karate Academy.
