From the reviews

I started attending the COBRA defense class in January and have loved every minute of it. The atmosphere, training and camaraderie are excellent. The technical training is very good, makes a lot of sense, and made me much more confident in my ability to react properly and defend myself after just a few weeks.

★★★★★ — Pierre, Jul 2020

My nephew goes here and LOVES it! He's super excited to work with Mr Rob and his staff and advance and learn various techniques! He cannot wait to go to class, practice for tests and move up in belts. Mr Rob is an exceptional teacher and is awesome with the kids!

★★★★★ — V, Apr 2015

Anyone looking for a wonderful program for their child, this is it! Rob Hazlewood and his staff do a fantastic job of not only teaching Kenpo karate, but teaching kids about bullying and effective ways to react, self-defense, and instilling confidence. A positive and fun environment that is also creating friendships!

★★★★★ — Rene, Apr 2015

I have been training here for over 10 years. Flexible class schedules, a wealth of instructor experience and knowledge in a open and encouraging environment. The school is always looking for ways to better serve the needs of the students, be if from different training programs, specialty classes, health and fitness,…

Your first Karate class at Colleyville Kenpo Karate and COBRA Defense

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.
