Affiliated dojo — reviews and the dojo's own info point to a recognized Karate style organization or franchise (think Shotokan/JKA, Kyokushin, Goju-Ryu, Isshinryu, Tiger Schulmann's or Villari's).

From the reviews

My daughter and I both train here. I take our Martial education very seriously. Master Matys is very knowledgeable and his support staff are all exceptional. They train in a martial art , not a sport, old school discipline and respect are a great part of the curriculum. Tang Soo.

★★★★★ — Tim, Feb 2021

Our daughter absolutely has thrived here. The staff here are amazing, caring, and have excellent communication skills with feedback to parents. We love it here and it’s a terrific opportunity for any child to grow in strength and confidence.

Super satisfied. Master Allen is a phenomenal educator. Class teaches boundaries, respect, confidence, discipline and of course he knows how to have fun while teaching them these skills. Love being apart of the Amkor Karate family.

Your first Karate class at AmKor Karate Institutes

Nervous about walking into a Karate dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and a good sensei expects beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic stances, blocks, punches, and kicks — not hard sparring. Step to the side whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot. What to bring: water, and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi and the belt your dojo awards you. Kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Karate is a contact sport. Ease in, train within your limits, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
