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
Instructor Debra and instructor Erik began their Purple Dragon journey at the Purple Dragon Tequesta Dojo, with Sensei Candia and I. They joined firstly to support their kids as a family that trains together, but quickly realizsed their passion for Don Jitsu Ryu and have made a commitment to achieving their maximum…
No complaints at all. The instructors are SOOO GOOD with these kids. You can tell they truly care. You can also tell they’re very experienced with dealing with children. They’ve been so patient, kind, and understanding. We love going here. Thank you Eric and Debra for everything you do!
Words of praise to Purple Dragon and its amazing instructors. The instructors are incredibly dedicated and caring, always taking the time to ensure that each student feels supported and encouraged.
Purple Dragon has been the perfect Martial Art environment for my 5 year old son. The culture allows anyone to feel like they belong regardless of skill set. The instructors, who are parents themselves, genuinely care about the progression of all students who attend.
Your first Karate class at Purple Dragon 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.
