★★★★★ — Taran, Oct 2023

I’ve trained under the Iannuzzo family for the past 3 years. I’ve gained great experience in striking and have earned a blue belt in Brazilian JiuJitsu here. Their fitness kickboxing program is a fantastic full body workout as well. You become family when you walk through their doors.

★★★★★ — Evan, Oct 2023

This is a very legitimate Karate studio who has had generations of family members that treat their students like family members. They are amazing with kids and helped my son with early on confidence issues. Now here he is 12 years later at 17 years old and still happily going.

★★★★★ — Williecycle, Jul 2020

We had our son’s 7th birthday party here and it was great! They did lots of games and a karate class with the kids. My son got to cut his cake with a Samuari sword! They did everything for us and we didn’t have to worry about anything. My son loved his party and wants to do it again next year!

Your first Karate class at Iannuzzo's 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.

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.
