good for kids
Karate America offers a diverse and engaging martial arts program that caters to students of all ages and skill levels. With a focus on techniques such as Krav Maga, Kalli (Arnis or Eskrima), and Korean Taekwondo, the instructors, particularly Master Ferrer, are known for their infectious enthusiasm and genuine love of martial arts. Parents appreciate the program for teaching their children valuable self-defense skills and fostering respect and discipline. The atmosphere is described as supportive, with instructors balancing strict expectations with kindness and humor. Private lessons are highlighted for their effectiveness in accelerating progress, making this an appealing choice for beginners and seasoned practitioners alike. Karate America is not just a training ground; it creates a close-knit community where both children and adults can thrive, improving their physical fitness and overall character in a fun and motivating environment.
I wasn’t sure when the instructors changed about 3 years ago, but I was really happy with what I saw. My son was learning new techniques and skills which kept his interest in continuing his journey. He is now working on his 3rd degree blackbelt.
Amazing program I would recommend to anyone!!! They have gone above and beyond for me and my family. Teaching my daughters how to navigate and protect themselves in this crazy world.
I never knew about Krav Maga, Kalli (aka Arnis or Eskrima) and Korean style Taekwondo, until a friend of mine introduced me to Master Ferrerr. An amazing and energetic individual. His genuine love of martial arts and show of enthusiasm for his craft is infectious and motivating. As a beginner starting from scratch, I appreciated his patience and encouraging words during our private lessons. Do not get me wrong. He is tough, a perfectionist, and expects a lot from his students. He is amazing with children of all ages, from the tiny tots to the older teens. Although strict, he radiates calmness /kindness and humor. You can see the kids adore and respect him. He is definitely a master in his trade who can impart knowledge in a meaningful and understanding format. The private lessons I take with Master Ferrer have been extremely helpful in progressing me faster than I would have just taking group classes. As a physician, this activity is great for a child's overall character and physical development. For adults the benefits of cardiopulmonary training, flexibility and hand eye coordination would prevent or slow down many of the aging issues we deal with. If you think you are too old... think not. I am almost 57yo and my martial arts partner is a 73 yo feisty energetic female. Why should the kids be the only one having fun? This replaces for me the boring workout classes and gyms. I am glad to have found this place and be part of this close knit family of martial arts instructors and students.
