From the reviews
We cannot rate this place and its instructors high enough. The quality of instruction is second to none. Not only is every instructor a world champion who teaches kids top-notch martial arts but they also teach irreplaceable life skills, grow confidence and build champions from the inside out.
Awesome place to practice and start marital arts. Top notch senseis! Always encouraging and entertaining the students. Both my boys absolutely love their classes. They have gained a lot of confidence as well as skills, physical strength, and even improved their posture.
My son has been attending martial art classes with Mr. Jeremiah and Sensei Kevin for quite sometime now. They are knowledgeable and passionate about teaching. Their teaching style is engaging and motivating, making every class enjoyable for my son.
My daughter has been enrolled with these instructors for 2 years. They are helping her achieve her goal of becoming a black belt in mixed martial arts. She is learning self defense as well as receiving consistent praise and constructive criticism to help her push through each level in class and in life.
Your first Karate class at Global Champs Karate
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.
