From the reviews
I just love the experience my son has had at the Central Florida Budokai Karate Do Academy. He has attended the Academy since it first opened. Everyone there has treated my son like family, ensuring he doesn't miss a beat while under their care.
I had my son since it was 5 years old and he love it, he used to have behavior issues and the improvement that He had thanks to Budokai Karate is so notable, he is now 8th and he is so into karate that his anger problems disappeared, he does the homework while being here and the staff is awesome and the communication…
I am greatfull for Sport Karate Center. My son receives excellent care; Jenny Zapata always goes far and beyond for all children, she is amazing, loving and reliable at all times. The instructor Sensei Bacardi teach high level Karate, kids enjoy grappling, fight nights and weapons nights.
this is the place to put your child in. Everyone there is very kind, respectful and very understanding. Always willing to help you and they treat the kids as one of their own. One big happy family. I wouldn’t change this place for any other one. They have summer camps. They show them discipline and self defense.
Your first Karate class at Central Florida Budokai Karate Do
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.
