From the reviews
We go to the Webster location. We started in April and my daughter was only 3. When she went for her first lesson she was incredibly shy and defiant. I was so amazed at how the Senseis responded to such a strong personality. I have NEVER heard them get angry or raise their voice.
Ever since the first day Alex and I stepped into Murray's martial arts it was a warm inviting atmosphere and the sensei's there we're very friendly and inviting. She is learning valuable life skills along with self-defense and has also met a few new friends.
Our sons have been with Level Up Martial Arts for 4 years! We absolutely LOVE this place. While learning the fundamentals of Karate, they are also learning character, discipline, and strength. We meet with Sensei’s to discuss achievements and goals as well as how to help our children advance in their skills.
I can’t say enough about Level Up. Our son started a couple months ago and loves it. He’s learning martial arts, but also really increasing his confidence and focus. We were nervous he’d be too young to start, but everyone here makes him - and us - feel comfortable, and creates a safe space for learning and growing.
New to Karate? Start at Level Up Martial Arts
Level Up Martial Arts comes up as a beginner-friendly dojo, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Level Up 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.
