Part of Shotokan Karate (JKA)
Affiliated dojo — reviews and the dojo's own info point to a recognized Karate style organization or franchise (think Shotokan/JKA, Kyokushin, Goju-Ryu, Isshinryu, Tiger Schulmann's or Villari's). If lineage matters to you, ask which style and organization the dojo belongs to, and under whom the head sensei earned their black belt.

From the reviews
Hands down the best and most talented dojo in Miami. It's a family and a lifestyle.
I recently visited Miami Shotokan Karate and it’s one of the best karate dojos I’ve encountered in a long time. The atmosphere is exceptional, embodying a true sense of family and community. The instructors are highly skilled and genuinely care about their students' progress.
Although I have moved to the Bay Area, every visit back to Miami Florida brings me back to train with Sensei Jose and Miami Shotokan dojo. Great instruction and strong spirit from member students - adults and children!

Your first Karate class at Miami Shotokan Karate Club
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.
