From the reviews

We absolutely love PMA! My son Oliver (7yo) has been at PMA for a few months now. His progress has been amazing in such a short time. Not only in martial art skills, but he’s also more confident and disciplined. The instructors are all very knowledgeable, respectful, and treat everyone like family.

★★★★★ — Jasiel, Mar 2025

I and my son go here for martial arts training and I am extremely happy with the progress of myself and my child. I will continue our training here. The teachers and masters of this organization have been very helpful and take time explaining every little small details needed for our improvement.

★★★★★ — Subaraman, Feb 2025

Our family has been part of this school for almost 20 years, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Our son Michael started when he was 8 and is now 27. Our granddaughter Alexis joined at 6 and now volunteers at the summer camp. Today, our grandson Frankie, also 6, is enjoying the same great program.

★★★★★ — Mcg, Jun 2026

My son Kaleb has been in Premier since he was 3 years old and now he is six. He has learned self-confidence, respect, responsibility, just being a good kid. He absolutely loves his karate class. He was very timid and hardly spoke. He is more social then me (his mother). He makes friends with a rock.

Your first Karate class at Premier Martial Arts - Pembroke Pines

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.
