From the reviews
If you’re looking for something more than just discipline this is the dojo to go to. Ever since I joined this dojo life has been different around me. And mostly it has been for the good I highly recommend this dojo for anybody that’s looking on doing karate, of course by that I mean Traditional Karate.
A child shall get a firm core karate foundation. Sensei teaches the children starting from the core basics; e.g; making a fist, correct way of standing up, the right way of articulating the words in Japanese. He does not assume or leave things to common sense.
Your first Karate class at SHINTAIKI-JI NY MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL(IOGKF)
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.
