From the reviews

Sensei Moises De La Cruz is simply amazing! If you're a parent and wish to strengthen morals and values into your child, then this is the school to enroll your child at. Of course physical fitness will always be involved.

★★★★★ — Gerard, Sep 2016

Shihan Moises has impeccable human relations skills, and has the ability to "lead" others. As a Karate Instructor myself I can tell he's one of the finest Karate Instructors I've trained and shared knowledge with.

★★★★★ — Jeter, Apr 2022

This is a great place to learn and train in Karate. Sensei De La Cruz is an excellent and caring instructor. Feel free to contact him for additional information!

★★★★★ — Michael, Jun 2019

Sensei Moises is the best instructor I have ever come across in my 10 years of training. His love for karate and his passion for teaching, truly gets me motivated to learn more. Highly recommend to anyone who’s interested in learning the art of karate or just looking to try something new!

Your first Karate class at Kihon Kai Shotokan Karate Do

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.
