From the reviews
I have found a home at Dunham's Martial Arts! I started almost a year ago with the goal of just learning some self-defense moves. I had no experience in any form of martial arts.
Great Dojo. Put my 5 year old in karate cause I wanted him to learn how to be more disciplined and respectful. This Dojo has been very helpful and my son is taking that knowledge to kindergarten that he has started. Highly recommended for all ages.
My daughter has attended here for going on 2 years, in that time she has grown so much in respect, leadership skills, and being a positive person for her community. The classes are always fun and positive.
My five year old has been taking karate classes here for exactly one year. It was been a wonderful experience. The teachers are all amazing, kind, and good with kids. My son has learned so much since we've been there. Not only do they teach the moves, but they also build character and discipline.
Your first Karate class at Dunham's Martial Arts Training Center
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.
