From the reviews

We started coming here 10 months ago. Martial arts are a good form of discipline and exercise, especially for kids in the day and age of tech. My son has some emotional regulation to work on and I thought putting him in karate would be a good outlet for him, and it has been.

★★★★☆ — Aly, Aug 2025

My family and I have been associated with the TXBBA organization for about 9 years. My daughter started in Little Dragons at 4 and will be testing for 2nd degree black belt this year. She has also achieved the rank of Junior black belt in BJJ in that span.

★★★★★ — Phil, Mar 2026

Texas black belt academy in Burleson is just so awesome! They are so welcoming and kind. The place is very clean and organized. Master Tyler is very attentive to anything we may need, and very helpful! He’s always making sure we are happy and comfortable in his building.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Sep 2023

My daughter has been at this location for just over a year and it has been a great experience. The instructors are great and we really enjoy coming here. Master Elijah has been working with my little one since she started and she just moved to the advanced level.

Your first Karate class at TXBBA Burleson

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.

Karate is a contact sport. Ease in, train within your limits, listen to your instructors, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
