From the reviews
i have taken my grandson here for nearly 6 years. Their instructors are accomplished black belt karatekas by anyone's standards. I trained under Mel Wize and Jim Harrison, 45 years ago. They operate with the highest degree of professionalism and steadly realize the goals of changing the lives of young and adult alike.
This place is AMAZING with some of the best instructors! They do really focus and care about building you're children up. Confidence, life skills you name it! I recommend this place to everyone. My children have had a blast taking Taekwondo, and love the instructors. I wish I could give this place more stars!
I have two boys ages 8 and 9. They love the class and the instructors. It is very well organized and kids kid/adult friendly. I recommend this to all that want to build confidence.
This place is the real deal!! Master Leitzke is an exceptional instructor and business man. He and his instructors understand perfectly how to interact with children, young adults, and adults. My daughter has learned amazing life skills, self defense techniques, and her self esteem and confidence have soared.
Your first Karate class at Confidence Martial Arts
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.
