    Extra curricular activities should be a safe place for your children to be themselves, make new…read morefriends and learn new skills. This program came recommended by a family friend, when we first joined things seem to be going OK but overtime that changed. Master Creed is an extremely kind and caring instructor, his staff might not all be as well versed in the care of children and how to speak to them which is why we recommend looking at other programs in the area. Our daughter's participate in gymnastics, golf, soccer and karate. My oldest being so excited to join the karate program was sharing with Mr. Maurer about her recent performance in her golf program and that she was thinking of taking a break from gymnastics. Mr. Maurer is usually the finance guy who will upsell each family on their programs, which is understandable we all have a job to do and need to earn money. In this same breath of her being so beyond excited to be trying something new (which was golf) Mr. Maurer had the audacity to tell her to quit golf, as it is not as fun or cool as karate and ask mommy and daddy to pay for the black belt program. Which we are well aware exists but have no interest considering they force you into prepayment for months long commitments, you also are forced to purchase gear and equipment your child may not need or utilize unless they join that more expensive program (it will be sitting collecting dust). She came home from that interaction so speechless and confused, an adult she looked up to telling her that her new interests are silly and unimportant, pushing something on her she has no interest in and that had been communicated to him by both myself and husband, showed this was not the place for us. My mother in law came home also upset after hearing him address an 8 year old this way. I decided to bring it to master Creeds attention and his sympathy was with us but the corrective action did nothing for my child, nor do I think enough was done at the time in regards to holding Mr Maurer accountable. The class she attended after this conversation Master Creeds decided to make directly towards cheering her on in regards to trying something new (golf), which was appreciated but unnecessary considering she should've never been made to feel that way in the first place. When he did mention the golf it brought herto tears because she had what Mr Maurer said to her in the back of her mind. We never returned after that day, we paid for a program we could not complete. It was worth noting, there's a specific way to address kids and adults. Food for thought when shopping around for a program your entire family should feel comfortable with I don't think this is an honest place to bring your kids.

    We were looking for a Martial Arts school for our oldest daughter (6) and found Karate America…read morePembroke Lakes. The location brought us in , it was conveniently close to our home but it was Master Creed and Mr. Mauerer that convinced us to stay. My daughter comes home after every class so excited to show me what she learned with Master Creed. Can't wait for my other two little ones (4) and (3) to take their first Little Tigers class. They run an Amazing program here and we are so Happy to be part of the family now!

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.
