From the reviews
Mr. Porter and his entire staff are fantastic. My daughter who is 4 started about a month ago because her therapist recommended it for focusing and behaviors. The entire staff at focus martial arts does an amazing job helping each and every student.
I recently enrolled my 3-year-old son in the little ninjas class, and I must say, it has been a fantastic experience for both of us. The class is designed perfectly for preschoolers, striking a balance between fun and learning valuable skills.
We love Focus Martial Arts, the instructors are knowledgeable and patient and professional! Your child will learn focus, drive, discipline, community and so much more!
Focus Martial Arts has been such a positive part of my son’s life over the past year. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient, kind, and encouraging. My son looks forward to every class—he’s gained confidence, discipline, and has so much fun while learning.
Your first Karate class at Focus 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.
