From the reviews
Sensei Steve's is awesome! Highly recommend for a good, fun but structured environment. He is excellent with the kids and his knowledge for the martial arts is limitless. Sensei Steve is a truly genuine human. Top notch all the way!
Both my kids take classes with sensei Steve. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a fun yet dedicated and professional environment.
Amazing martial arts school with a deep love for the art and their students! I've watched many skilled black belts come from this school! The life skills taught here impact not only what happens to students on the mat, but the rest of their lives as well. Highly recommend!!
So far so good he seems to really know his stuff, and he seems to really care about his students and he seems spiritually inclined often quoting scriptures from the Bible
Your first Karate class at Sensei Steve's Karate Center
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.
