From the reviews
What a positive experience this has been! My grandson has improvements in attitude, manners & discipline. This is a great help for shaping and forming your children into high quality individuals. I highly recommend!
It helps you grow as a person and get out of your shell. The instructors are amazing people who help you be able to defend yourself and others.
Fun and friendly. This staff is full knowledge and extremely helpful. Great place to instill building tools for kids.
I absolutely love this place and my son has a blast! I got my son involved back in the beginning of the school year so that he could interact with other kids and have a physical sport outlet, he has ADHD and the instructors are absolutely amazing with him and he absolutely loves going.
Your first Karate class at Rick Weems' LivConfident 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.
