From the reviews
Really liked sensei Josh! So patient and fun..worth the investment. There's something so exciting about being at brand new dojo! Really happy to grow with this location!
East West Karate of Trevose is awesome! I joined 6 weeks ago with my daughters and we love it. The staff is extremely skilled, patient and passionate about martial arts. We’ve learned so much in our short time as students.
Sensei Josh and his coaches do an amazing job teaching the kids and keeping them engaged. My son loves karate! They always do new fun things to involve their student's friends and families. They provide positive reinforcement and help the students improve in class and outside of class.
Sensei Josh and company are great! I started the adult program a few months ago and everyone was very welcoming. They teach useful skills, give you a great workout, and enable a good social experience.
New to Karate? Start at East West Karate Trevose
East West Karate Trevose comes up as a beginner-friendly dojo — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or set foot in a dojo, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and the sensei scales the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable dojos build fundamentals (stances, blocks, punches, and kicks) for weeks, and kumite (sparring) eases in gradually, with pads and control. Third, all levels and ages really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most dojos are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first Karate class at East West Karate Trevose
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.
