Round Rock Karate Academy

I've been training with Master Delenela for over ten years, so I hope to give an insider glimpse into what training at the academy is like. It's a very encouraging environment. Students are treated respectfully and Master Delenela is one of the most patient teachers I have seen. He is funny and knows when to blend measures of humor and empathy to get the best efforts out of the kids when needed.The karate itself is traditional yet understandable and relatable. You learn technical theory and some Korean vocabulary but it is integrated well into the physical lessons and applications. Master Delenela is a skilled technician - it shows in his instruction and in the caliber of students and martial artists he produces. I have trained in multiple schools with my share of noted martial artists and Round Rock Karate Academy stands out overall for its combination of environment and rigor.I would recommend those searching for a traditional martial arts school to check out RRKA. It has classes and instructional levels for students of all ages and is rooted in respect, courtesy, and safety.

One of THE BEST Martial Art School. It's not only about Martial Art and Technique that you learn here, it Body Mind and Spiritual connection and mostly important the Quality Mind Set. …

We have our grandson full time and decided to take him to this karate school for self-esteem and discipline, before the virus pandemic we would sit in and watch the classes and loved how Master Delenela and his instructors work with the …

We’ve been members of this school for a few years and are so appreciative of instruction from an actual master instructor and not just student black belts. There is a reason why this school keeps winning the best martial arts school in round rock awards. They really are the best! We checked out many other karate places and this one was the best from the location to instruction and student/parent community. Definite recommend!

We went to several other karate studios and for us it was instantly obvious that this one was far above and beyond the rest. Master Delenela pours his heart and soul into teaching the art and has gone to great lengths to keep the children engaged and excelling even through the quarantine and mess of a year. The other assistant teachers are fantastic as well. My son absolutely loves going, and enjoys the zoom classes as well; it is the highlight of his week. It has helped his confidence to grow and it seems the other students are equally engaged and growing. We've recommended this place to several friends. Not only do they teach karate but they also impress upon the students the importance of and how to become a person with sound morals and virtues. Can't recommend them enough!!

Both my sons have trained at RRKA and we have been superbly impressed with Master Delenela and his staff there. They have helped our boys become more confident, more focused, and more mature as they become young men. The instructors are …

we have loved being part of this school ; you know that a school is great when the kids are excited to go almost everyday without complaining ! You won't be disappointed to say the least !

This is by far the best school!!!! The instructors are top notch!!! My son has blossomed beyond my expectations. All thanks to Round Rock Karate Academy and their instructors! They should have a ten star rating for this school!

My son started off in Round Rock Karate Academy's Little Dragon program just over a year ago. He immediately gained so much confidence, he was able to participate in a competition and loved it. I can't emphasize enough how great this …

Excellent studio for everyone. The instructor really knows each student and gives them the attention and encouragement they need.
