From the reviews
We weren’t sure what to expect because there are so many places to choose from. We really enjoy the facility and the people. I love that older kids help and gives them confidence. They also give free lessons to try it out. Super happy with Tama
Our child has gained so much confidence since becoming a part of the Tama family! We absolutely love it here and it’s been so great watching our 9 year old grow since engaging in the program.

I'm so happy we found this place. Our 6 year old son loves it. He gets to learn discipline and karate.
Your first Karate class at Kettering-Dayton Kids Karate Lessons Near Me
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.
