From the reviews
We were looking for a karate studio for our kids to join and once we walked into karate America We felt that my kids found a second home. The instructors are great and I’m glad we found this place for my kids.
The atmosphere is amazing. The instructors are top-notch! Great place for you or your kids to learn martial arts and discipline
My granddaughter experienced a karate class for a summer and quit taking gymnastics to join karate. She memorized the student creed the first month of class and has advanced to brown black belt in two years of hard work and dedication.
Karate America has been an incredible learning experience for my 6-year-old who started only 6 months ago. Since joining, he has gained a wealth of knowledge and skills through his karate training. The dedicated instructors have taught him valuable lessons in discipline, respect, and perseverance.
Your first Karate class at Turner 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.
