From the reviews

I started training at West Coast Mission in 2018. They helped me be more confident in myself and feel safe by teaching me self-defense. I ended up bringing in my 6 year old nephew to learn self-discipline and he is enjoying it!

★★★★★ — Avnish, Jul 2014

Both my kids and I were with the studio for about five years total. My kids were 8 and 3.5 when they started. 3.5 was probably too young. They have a large team of instructors, all of them dedicated, each of his or her own strengths.

★★★★★ — Dorit, Sep 2023

Be there for around one year. My kids learned a lot from there. Also, they care kids safety very much. Last Tuesday, my daughter ran to me when I was in a blind spot from the entrance. The instructor called her immediately to make sure she was running to a safe person. I felt very warm and touched.

Your first Karate class at West Coast Mission Karate

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.
