    Been here for 10 years and this dojo is for 1/anyone who's not tried martial arts yet once in life…read more2/anyone who wants to get a great workout 3/anyone who is looking for authentic, smart, kind friends 4/anyone who wants great instruction from a fifth plus degree Blackbelt and her amazing jiu jitsu husband 4/anyone who is ready to have a lot of fun while working out. I've earned two Blackbelts here and a blue belt in grappling. Come try our dojo and see if it's for you Ps we've got a great kids program too

    You only get one chance to make a good first impression…read more We'd gone to Freestyle Martial Arts check out their class offerings for myself and my family members of all ages and abilities and as a possible birthday party location for a youngster family member as they advertise: "Swing by for a tour to see what we have to offer you and your family" and they advertise they're disabled-friendly with, "We've had students with asthma and high blood pressure, and we've also taught students in wheelchairs. If you or your child has a physical limitation or a learning disability, let us show you how Freestyle can make it work" and they advertise "You're also welcome to stop by and observe any of our group classes." and they advertise, "For your event, you'll have the run of the entire academy for games like dodgeball, obstacle course, padded weapons and Instructor Says, a martial arts segment with punching, kicking and blocking, and even a dance party complete with disco lights and lasers. Your Freestyle party includes party favors! All guests will receive a card good for a FREE karate lesson with gi." and they advertise, "Am I too old to start martial arts? No." PROS Website is useful Parking is shared in the shopping center Diverse curriculum Diverse hours Gave us their advertised tour Has men's and women's bathrooms Let us observe their group classes Appeared clean CONS Not on a bus line Parking is shared in the shopping center, which gets very crowded and full. No showers or lockers for students. Weird, huh? I did not find them disabled-friendly of my disabilities. Weird, huh? Not being disabled-friendly is more disabling on people with disabilities than their disabilities. I did not find them senior-friendly (I'm age 60+). Weird, huh? Has no Military or Veterans Discount. Weird, huh?

We are all military caregivers; or we should be.

    Full disclosure we are friends with the Freeman's…read more I am writing this review not for today but the past. My children both took Karate here. I love Sensei Kelly as he is knowledgeable and loves what he does. He has a very kind demeanor, amazing amounts of patience and is able to teach even the youngest Karate. He is able to maintain respect in a fun and friendly environment. It is wonderful to watch the three year old class. Kelly teaches Japanese Okinawan traditional karate. This dojo also participates in several Karate tournaments throughout the year. This is a family owned and family run business. I could rave about this dojo all day.

    The review give by Mike is completely inaccurate. This Dojo (room or hall where judo or karate is…read morepracticed) is over the top helpful with instructors that go out of their way to help when a student is having difficulty. If a student gets hurt (which is rare but it is Karate, unarmed combat by definition) the class stops and the needs of the student is immediately addressed. The instructors are patient but do insist that each form or technique is learned correctly. As it should be, this is self defense. If not learned properly the student will be at risk if they ever need to use what they have been instructed. The student is never pushed to progress faster than they can but always receive positive reinforcement. An advantage I see in this school is that it has students that have belted in other forms of martial arts. This allows the new student with little or no background in Karate to get a broader perspective of Karate. The Dojo is true to it's style which is Shorin-Ryu so even while there are students that have studied other forms the instruction is pure Shorin-Ryu. It is a family like atmosphere not a military atmosphere like some schools I have visited. I have found this approach to actually help students progress faster with better skill because they are not directed with fear of making a mistake. In my opinion if you want to learn to protect yourself and are willing to practice along with showing up for class this is a school that will allow for very satisfying success
