From the reviews
Mike and Jess are wonderful with the kids. My son has been taking karate for almost a year now. They are thoughtful and caring and love helping these children and keeping them off the streets and teaching them self defense.
Love this place and Sensei Mike! He has helped our child so much not just with his own confidence and skills but with his own self-discipline. He helps out so much more at home with basic household chores, for example: helping sweep, mop, taking out trash and he is at the age of 7!
Wanted to give a review with no bs! My two boys have attend this school for a few months now. From not knowing anything, to now being actively part of learning self defense moves in karate that would apply to real life situations! It's been pretty awesome watching them grow in this sport.
I feel like my kids that are in this school look forward to, appreciate, and adjust their behavior at home to be sure and be able to participate every day there's training. I'm fortunate to have my children in this training regimen that I'm sure they both carry around daily.
Your first Karate class at COBRA Karate
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.
