From the reviews
Great friendly environment, I called inquiring for a friend, and I was very impressed with how welcoming Jeff was over the phone. Everyone there was just as welcoming. I had no intention of joining the school, just support for a friend and 3 years later I can't imagine being anywhere else.
Kid Martial Arts is the best! My son has high functioning autism and Jeff has been very patient and understanding with him during the past 3 years that he has been going. He has reached his green belt and is extremely proud of his accomplishments in the class.
I have been a student for 9 years and am a second-degree black belt. I teach a class of younger kids and fully enjoy the experience. Coach Jeff is very nice and his teaching tactics are great. I always enjoy coming to class every week.
Coach Jeff is a wonderful teacher. The instructors are awesome with the kids, they teach not only the martial arts, but respect. They encourage the kids and help build their self esteem. My kids are really enjoying themselves. They also treat everyone like they are family. I would highly recommend Kids Martial Arts.
Your first Karate class at Kid Martial Arts - Glastonbury CT
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.
