From the reviews
Daughter's home away from home 💜 great staff, just like family. Wonderful place to learn self defense.
I am very picky about what kind of instruction my 5 yr old daughter receives because I’ve trained with the best myself as a martial artist. Master Paul and his staff are well trained and there is an intentional methodology used during class at this fine institution.
We LOVE IMA! My son has been taking classes for 5 yrs now and still loves every minute. The staff are always friendly and helpful. And the instructors are beyond awesome. They also offer pick up to the after school program they provide.
My son has been attending for 3 years and absolutely loves it! The staff is friendly and work well w the kids. We have come to call them our karate family :)
New to Karate? Start at Indiana Martial Arts
Indiana Martial Arts 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 Indiana 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.
