Martial Arts Schools in Greenville

“For kids, the school focuses on self-defense using the Aikido method. It teaches them practical self-defense to protect themselves from bullies, kidnappers, and school shootings.Mr. Beckham teaches values, discipline, and physical fitness, rather than competition. He takes his job seriously and can be very strict. He convinces them that whatever they do, they must do it to the best of their ability. Anything less is "tearing up ten dollar bills", wasting the opportunity to improve themselves.After three months, it's already made changes in my son's attitude that carries on to other parts of his life, such as school. It's helping him focus better. In addition, he is strengthening himself physically and mentally, spending less time on games and more time on things that matter.“

“This is a great dojo to train at for anyone wanting to learn about Ki Aikido and getting a taste of not just martial arts but the cultural aspect as well.“

“The martial arts instruction at this school is truly world class. Master Kim and Mrs. Kim are outstanding teachers who care deeply about their students, whether children or adults.This school is much more than a place to learn self-defense or TKD techniques. I’ve seen adults develop lasting friendships while building their fitness. And I’ve seen countless students – including my own children -- develop in areas that will be valuable to them their entire lives, including positivity, perseverance, respect, leadership, patience, focus, and self-control. My kids and I worked and learned together from white belt to black belt and beyond, with an amazing group of other students and instructors. I never hesitate to recommend the school to all of my friends, family, or anyone I meet.“

“We knew that Shorindokai Karate had a great reputation but i wasn't expecting my son to enjoy himself and learn so quickly. My son cooperates more at home and at school since attending Karate. I am so pleased with the way the instructor teaches, he is dedicated, patient and does an amazing job teaching our child Karate. We highly recommend Shorindokai Karate it's a blessing to have him in our son's life.“
