From the reviews
Great karate school. Son has been attending for 2 years. Teaches not only karate, but respect, discipline, and responsibility. My daughter has attended the Saturday classes and summer camps and she really enjoys the instructors, students, and atmosphere. This school has also helped build character and confidence.
Great experience with Bears Karate. My son has only been attending for 5 months and we already noticed the difference in discipline. They don't only teach Karate but character, structure and respect for others.
My two boys started attending Bears Karate International almost two years ago. They both love their sensies, and their peers and have grown so much in the sport in such little time. Their social skills have improved tremendously, they are courteous respectful, and more assertive.
Every single Sensei is incredible!!! They all push the kids to do their absolute best. They care so much for all the kids (regardless of age), and you can see the respect the kids have for every Sensei!!! I highly recommend Bears Karate for anybody, child or adult!!!!!
Your first Karate class at Bears Karate International
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.
