This karate studio recently got renovated with bigger space and new equipment and flooring. It looks amazing! My 2 sons, 9 and 6, love coming here and enjoy their weekly practices and tournaments. With all the other sports that they play and practice, this is their favorite! I like that they are learning self defense and discipline with the best Senseis!

How lucky were we to find this school! It has helped my kids on so many levels, my daughter came in without English, very shy and quiet. She has come such a long way, now performing at tournaments, and loving it! I am beyond grateful!

Our 7-yr-old daughter asked every day for two months to start karate lessons. When I started the search for schools, I originally needed something nearby that would fit her school and my work schedule. This school was perfect on those practical levels. It's clean, well-maintained, and family-friendly. Parking is easy to find, and the pricing structure for classes is affordable and reasonable.What has exceeded our expectations is the excellent staff, instruction, and care. Our daughter loves Sensei Anto and Sensei Aram, and has made friends in her classes. She looks forward to class and practicing at home. She recently passed her test for yellow belt and the experience provided her with such pride, joy, and a determination to continue and excel. Like most kids, there are moments where she doesn't want to participate or acts up; Sensei Anto manages his kid classes well. He knows when the kids need a run-around break, and when behaviors need to be addressed. He balances fun with technique, pays attention to kids who need extra guidance, empowers more advanced kids to help out lower levels, and generously gives praise when deserved. We're so happy with this fantastic school and look forward to continuing our daughter's martial arts education here.
