From the reviews
My kid has been taking Taekwondo classes at Evolution for many months now and it is always a wonderful experience. Every kid I see there, including my own, seems to really love the staff and teachers. They really seem to foster a sense of community and family.
My child has attended Evolution for two years and absolutely loves it! The instructors are fantastic and really care about the kids. They encourage the kids to do their very best. The kids are also great! They motivate each other and they have become like family to us. Summer Camp is so much fun.
Excellent after-school and summer programs! All the instructors are amazing and friendly! I never have to worry about my son because I know he is in good hands. My son has learned so much in 2 years. The instructors are firm on discipline and education.
My son has been going to Evolution for a few years now and has had an amazing experience at at their summer camp this year. The facility was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, providing a safe and welcoming environment for all.
Your first Karate class at Evolution Martial Arts of Lakeland Inc
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.
