Wonderful place! The teacher is a quality person - fantastic mentor for kids, teens or adults. He makes everyone feel welcome and focuses on character building in addition to skills.

Can’t recommend enough! This is a family operation full of heart and dedication. We came to know the Sigari family through their karate ministry at a local church and are thrilled to see them take it commercial so the greater community can benefit from it. Javad is AMAZING with kids!

★★★★★ — Sarah, Jun 2025

This is an outstanding Karate Dojo. Sensei Sigari is really good with all ages. Our son started classes here a little less than a year ago. He loves his sensei and his method of teaching. This is a family run business and the owners really care about their students. My wife and I both have a background in martial arts.

Your first Karate class at Northview Kenpo Karate

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.
