From the reviews

Shihan Campbell runs a phenomenal program. My kids, ages 11 to 16, (& I) began lessons this summer at Grant Campbell’s USA Karate and couldn’t be more pleased. Shihan Campbell and the other teachers, Senpai Brandon and Senpai Karrington, not only are masters of the martial arts, but they are caring, kind teachers as…

★★★★★ — Jessica, Aug 2025

10 STAR Review (Congratulations on 55 Years of Dedicated Martial Arts) I began my martial arts journey with Sensei Grant Campbell nearly 40 years ago when I was in the 4th grade. While I was a good kid at home, I tested limits at school and didn’t take it seriously.

★★★★★ — Steve, Mar 2025

As a woman who once attended classes at Grant Campbell's USA Karate as a child, I can confidently say this is an exceptional place for your child. He is an amazing instructor who truly cares about his students.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Mar 2026

I enrolled my son at Grant Campbell’s USA Karate about four months ago, and it has been a wonderful experience. My son is hyperactive and gets distracted easily, but the instructors here know exactly how to keep him engaged while still teaching discipline and focus.

New to Karate? Start at Grant Campbell’s USA Karate

Grant Campbell’s USA Karate 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 Grant Campbell’s USA 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.

Karate is a contact sport. Ease in, train within your limits, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
