“We LOVE being a part of the National Karate community. My son absolutely loves attending karate classes and always asks if he can go to karate everyday! Mr. Drescher is amazing with the kids. All of the instructors and staff are so great and very helpful. I cannot say enough good things about National Karate!“
“I’ve been training with RMMA since it started in 2021 and every step has been amazing. Coach Joey is extremely encouraging and welcoming to everyone regardless of training background!“
“Thank you Master Yu and your team for volunteering to teach self defense techniques at the Illinois Math and Science Academy. Your team is awesome!“
“Great place to train! Being a beginner at 29 they balanced working at my skill level while pushing me hard to get better. Everyone is very knowledgeable and respectful.“
“I work in this community but I live about 30 minutes away. My family has a lot of options for Tae Kwon Do in the area we live in but we LOVE World Class!!! The instructors (Master Polanski, Master Eskew, Miss Gates, and the rest) are all very personable, knowledgeable, and respectful. They learn all of the kids' names and are so helpful in their learning process. I highly recommend this location!!!“
“Mr. and Mrs. Koffenberger run a very professional martial art studio. I have watched their business grow and improve over the past 10 years. When my son earned his black belt, he reflected that Mr. K. has been one of the most supportive people in his life. Mr. K's influence will be felt over his lifetime I'm sure.The teachings are fun and at the same focused on discipline. They participate in many community events and are family focused.“
“Great programs especially teaching children self control and discipline. Your kids are in good hands win this program!!“
“Friends of ours just had their 4 year old son's birthday party here. The instructor/owner is FANTASTIC. She got my very shy daughter very involved very quickly. And also got the parents involved. It was a wonderful experience.“
“I was a pleasure getting a tour form Jason the instructor on the new techniques in these different styles. They have so many programs to choose from and they are really encouraging you to come with your family and make it a family event, as their are not too many sports that you can actually participate in with your children. I highly recommend their best program the Family class up to 6 family members. The self discipline, self-motivation and the two biggest traits you really need to develop early in life. This school has this as their top priority. I cannot wait to bring my family here starting May 1, 2024.“
“Ko's has become such an important part of our family. I participate along with our two children. My journey began at 40 years old and I've felt nothing but encouragement and support from everyone from the beginning.It's also such a positive, engaging place for the kids as well!“
“We just had our first session with Master J and he absolutely exudes kindness, respect, patience, and peace. He is the perfect mix of playful and holding boundaries for my very energetic 5 year old daughter. What a gem of a teacher (and person) he is!“
“My favorite memory in karate was when I was at my first day at karate. I felt great when I broke a board, also getting my white belt made me proud. When I got the certificate for graduating to white belt I felt like I was going to jump in the air. I was so excited that I joined karate.H. Arellano age 11**My favorite memory is when I was a yellow/orange belt in the karate we played dodgeball. It was so fun. My second favorite memory is when I graduated to my green/brown belt and I was strong, fearless and happy. I know that I am a role model and I know that I need to continue to do my best.J. Arellano age 10**My favorite memory about karate is when at the end of the year we do an end of the year spectacular and you get to be on stage, everybody gets to look how good that you do. At karate, how strong, focused and powerful that you can be with your skills.from Fin age 9“
“So grateful we found this incredible judo community. The teachers are skilled, thoughtful, professional, and excellent with all ages. The owner honors the traditional values of judo. My son loves class. Highly recommend this dojo for classes for both kids and adults.“
“Best. Karate. Ever. Whether you are looking for traditional or sports karate, this place has it all. Sensei Dhawan is a true professional that has put in countless hours into practice and research. You can see the fruits of his labor when he and his students demonstrate. If you want real, authentic karate, this is it.“
“My son says he has such a great time here and sometimes he says he would rather be at P.S Academy than home. Recommend for any age as they have little tigers classes and adult classes.“
“Eddie's one of the very best. Professional, serious, responsible. Highly recommend“
“We have been taking our sons here for 9+ years. Our youngest (I was pregnant when the older two joined) grew up watching his brothers and couldn't wait to join. It was his favorite birthday present! Grandmaster Hutson and Master Harville don't only teach "forms". They help teach our sons self-defense, respect, confidence, dedication/perseverance, patience, and community; building character and lifelong friendships. I recommend this school to everyone! Check out the website - there are family classes too.“
“I have attended a few parties there and one community event. Its an great place, very pretty, simple yet impressive design. Staff there is very helpful, polite and efficient.“
“It’s a very real and decent place the master and the lady they are really good my kids enjoy this place but I I have to say something parents you bring your kids over here for discipline you to learn something from here but the way you people park your car when you come and drop your kids please see what you were doing you are a living example for your kids you just park in the middle of the stripes where there’s a handicap“
“A premier training environment that is run by excellent instructors. It’s a place where anyone at any skill level can benefit from.“
“My middle son has been going here for just over a year now and he absolutely loves it. The instructors are amazing and the facility is clean and organized. If you live in the area this is the place.“
“Overall, it's a good place for kids. Most instructors are good, but some need more training in engaging kids and making them feel more comfortable.“
“Sharkey'skarate is a good place to learn the material art and the coaches are very strong and niceThe only thing I have concerns about it is the smells need to be fresh and clean“
“I moved from Chicago in 2021 and Oct my son started going to Taekwondo. He love it they very, patient, helpful and they love all they children equally. They strict and don't play. They love all. Every week my son enjoys it and I will recommend this class to other because it teaches my child discipline and my son respect them very well. I love all the black belts as well. Shout out to the Owner Grand Lee, and the Top Black Belts Master Ben n Master Reagan.“
