From the reviews
Little did I know that by signing up for Taekwondo at Karate America for both my children and myself that I would be changing our lives completely. Robert Creed and Damaris Moncada have created a positive loving family environment.
Karate America, it’s my daughter’s second family, she loves it! She started about 2 years ago and committed towards getting her black belt. Best decision ever. The training and discipline is amazing, the instructors Master Creed, Maurer are exceptional life changers.
Karate America has been great for my child and my family in general. Master Creed and Ms. Torres are terrific instructors, very dedicated to helping each and every one of their students. They are compassionate and truly caring for the martial arts and for teaching true values.
My son is 4 years old has only been in karate for 3 weeks now and he loves it! He loves both of his teachers. He has gotten the hang of it so quick that I am amazed. But when you have good professors and a loving environment it all comes along.
New to Karate? Start at Karate America
Karate America 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 Karate America
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.
