One of the first things I noticed when we visited the dojo was that Sensei David knew each student by name. The atmosphere is so warm and personable; yet challenging and inspiring. The training method keeps it fun but also keeps it challenging. My 3 yo enjoys her time here and she is building confidence and becoming more focused. The entire family are all black belts and they really empower young students by conveying the message that you can do anything you put your mind to

This Shotokan Karate dojo is a fully participating and certifying member of ISKF. I've taken both…read moreTae Kwon do and Shotokan Karate before in other places, so I know what to look for in a martial arts dojang / dojo. Sensei Nguyen teaches a very traditional form of Shotokan Karate using the prescribed kata taught by Gichin Funakoshi and his closest followers. He emphasizes not just the traditional instruction given to all karateka, but he also includes free form kumite ('jiyu kumite') for colored belts, and ground techniques! The ground techniques are an extra bonus that you won't find being given frequently in other karate dojos anywhere else. The atmosphere is pleasant, but intense with an emphasis on physical fitness and fundamental techniques. I'm very happy to have had the opportunity to be instructed by Sensei Nguyen. Instruction is open to all children, youth, adults and elderly. The instruction given by Sensei Nguyen at the dojo is an excellent value for the money. You won't be disappointed.

C has been coming to Pandas Karate for a few months now and absolutely loves it. He started the…read morePre-Karate program (2.5-3 years old) a week before he turned 2.5yo. The first class was free, which was nice because C just observed from the side lines for the first 20 minutes of class until the moon bounce came out (what toddler would pass this up?!). Since C didn't really participate his first class, Ms. Susan (one of the owners) was kind enough to let him try the class again the following week free of charge. This time around, C participated and really enjoyed it. The Pre-Karate class is once a week in the early evening. The class is broken up into three parts, which I like since the attention span of a toddler is quite short. Each class begins with a short story followed by stretching while counting to 10 in Korean. Then they move onto practicing their karate skills/technique, which generally consists of stance, blocking, punching, and kicking. The last part of the class consists of a sport or game with the theme changing each month. On the last class of the month, they bring out the moon bounce. At the end of class, everyone gets a sticker. The owners, Mr. Daniel and Ms. Susan, are both fantastic. They are extremely kind and really good with children. You could tell they enjoy their jobs a lot. They both have a lot of patience, especially with the little ones. The other instructors (C has worked with Ms. Stephanie and Mr. Peter) are good as well. Besides having great, caring instructors, another thing I liked about Pandas Karate was the fact that you didn't have to sign a long term contract. Payments are monthly, with a slight discount (and free uniform) if you sign a four month contract. Pandas Karate not only teaches Karate, it also enhances listening skills, teaches manners, and can enhance one's self confidence. I highly recommend checking Pandas out!

HANDS DOWN thee best place we've found in Loudoun County! We've tried a couple different places…read morewith our kids and have met with others in and around Ashburn/Leesburgh. Hidy Ochiai Karate stood out above them all! Their classes go beyond the regular karate classes that other martial arts places provide. Here, they also do Kobudo which we learned is the use of ancient weapons! Trust me, your kids will go bonkers for this class!! It's taught in an extremely safe way, but still makes the kids feel like ninja superstars! I kind of want to take it myself :D Our daughter also did the summer camp this past summer and she loved it! She came home with real calligraphy paintings! Another thing that pushes them to the top is that they have Master Hidy Ochiai himself who comes down from New York to do special teachings with the kids each month. Look him up on YouTube and watch him slice an apple on someone's neck .... wait for it .... blindfolded! His skills are incredible and he is incredible with the kids as well. This school is in no competition with any other Martial Arts place because it's THAT good! I want to write a novel on here, lol, but I won't. Just one last thing to note: Sensei Winkler himself is AHmazing with the kids too. The way he talks and interacts with the kids makes them listen and have fun. I've sat and watched him a number of times when my daughter is in class. He's structured and fun, which is exactly what my daughter needs! Sensei Winkler is an incredible teacher because he has a lifetime of experience and many trophies from national Championship tournaments! You have to at the very least come to their free class on Saturdays!

Well, a few weeks ago, our daughter's classmate invited her to a birthday party at Super Kicks Ashburn. I didn't think she would like it, but she loved it and was smiling the entire time. Signed our daughter and her little brother up for an intro class. Our son isn't ready yet, but our daughter is still loving it, and we think our son will slowly warm up to it. What makes Super Kicks special enough for everyone to drive around with these magnets on their cars? I think it's the welcoming and fun atmosphere, combined with a noticeable effort to encourage the kids and families beyond the scheduled class time. Give Super Kicks a try!

Not only is the entire staff welcoming and attentive towards my son, they are also very encouraging. What makes super kicks stand out for us is the life lessons and attributes their programs instills in the little leaders.

I cannot recommend this place enough!
