From the reviews

We have learned in a very short amount of time how family oriented Z- Ultimate is. We have seen our son transform in the short time we have been there. Sensei Steven teaches the importance of discipline, structure, respect and humility and expects his students to practice this not only in his Dojo, but when they are…

★★★★★ — Barry, Nov 2015

The best decision we ever made was to put our son in Zultimate self defense. Our son was habitually bullied and the child that got picked on. His self esteem was low and so were his grades. He has learned valuable lessons of self worth and respect for himself and others.

★★★★★ — Toni, Nov 2015

My son has been training with all of the wonderful, and AMAZING Sensei's and he loves it. And the energy my son has is sky high, and they use that to train him. I am giving these guys a high recommendation and they are WORTH their weight in gold.

★★★★★ — Shyla, Aug 2017

I've been going here for about 2 years and my experience is great. The instructors are nice and the learning is easy. Not too expensive. Would definitely recommend trying this place out.

Your first Karate class at Z-Ultimate Self Defense Studios Cheyenne Mt.

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.
