My son joined the Japan Karate Federation about one year ago and I cannot say enough good things…read moreabout all of the amazing accomplishments, growth and overall mental and physical strength he has gained from his practice. Sensei Langlais works so well with his students; he exemplifies leadership and promotes a well-rounded structure throughout his practice. My favorite part is that the students are taught to earn their achievements. If you are the type of person who is into participation awards then this dojo may not be for you. Every person works hard towards each promotion and it is not earned until every aspect required to move on has been perfected. My son is excited for every class and wholeheartedly tries to uphold the goals and requirements that are set out for him to keep moving forward. I think that no matter what your age or skill level, if you are looking for the hands-down best dojo in Tucson that this is the place to go!

**UPDATE** This location has transferred to new owner and is now "AZ Karate & Kombat Academy"…read moreinstead of "AKKA Karate USA" The original AKKA Owner now has a location in Corona de Tucson - 51 E Tallahassee Dr (520) 820-0155. I discovered AKKA one day when my 15 year old son decided he wanted to learn karate. We spent a Saturday driving all around the east side of Tucson looking for a school. Most were either closed or not very helpful. AKKA just happened to be the last school we stopped at. Mrs. Thibault, the owner, greeted us and spent time talking with us. We walked out that day excited to start. Now, a little over a year later, AKKA has become our home away from home. The family package is an amazing deal that many families take advantage of. The instructors are all top notch and keep learning fun. Everyone is treated with respect. They offer classes in Kenpo for all ages, Grappling, Kick Boxing, and Combative Tactics. There are other AKKA schools across Tucson in the same system and they all get together for seminars and tournaments on a pretty regular basis. It's like an extended family! If you're looking for a family oriented karate school where learning is fun, I highly recommend checking out AKKA!

Yes, it's a bit pricey but Master Seong and her teachers have grown on our family. She loves the kids she teaches & they all respect her.

I usually grab groceries at Safeway or Chinese food from Happy Wok while he's in class. He has loved making friends & us parents wait in our cars or watch creepily from the windows lol.
