I first learned of Warrior Institute when my now 7 year old was only 4. We had checked out several…read moremartial arts programs in the area and Warrior Institute was EASILY the most impressive to my family. The staff was very professional yet relatable & the facility was clean and orderly. My son has also had a birthday party here AND they offer "parents night out" which basically consists of them caring for the children for a set amount of hours outside of normal class hours. They play games, (nerf wars are a big hit), feed them & keep them safe! I love it. If I could change anything it would probably only be a better parking situation. It can get congested sometimes but things always work out.

He was patient, funny, and above all knowledgable. The facility is large, filled, with trophies and offers many types of classes including caperioa. They have a fantastic website and flexible class sizes and times. I have only gone to a few classes with my son but so far the prices are reasonable, the team is very accommodating, and its close to the house. I can drop my daughter off at ballet at BAPA and only go 10minutes away for my sons karate. Win win!

Head Master Choi is an absolute gem of a human and has such a special way with kids that trickles down to the other amazing instructors Chloe and Marko.
