★★★★★ — Sasha, Dec 2021

We booked a Girl Scout field trip here through Master Anja Gardziola at the Green/Uniontown location. When we arrived, we were greeted by Mr. Kirkland and Mr. Balko, who led a delightful class. The girls (ages 6-9) were laughing, engaged and learning to use their bodies in new and interesting ways.

★★★★★ — Christopher, Feb 2020

We absolutely love Asian Sun, and this location in particular. The teachers are very involved, engaged, and determined to make sure your kid gets the most of the their practices. They offer lots of great extra social events and are dedicated to keeping your kid on track with tests to eventually get their black belt.

Your first Karate class at Asian Sun Martial Arts Taekwondo Karate of Green Uniontown Portage Lakes Akron

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.
