West Boca Karate
Ever since I was five years old, my parents have been taking me to West Boca Karate. Every child needs a place to have fun and move around, and what's a better place to do that than at a karate studio? Not only has it been a lot of fun attending, but I have also been learning how to fight and protect myself. Now I am 15 years old and still enjoy going to karate like I have been for 10 years now.
The karate school overall has a great atmosphere. It's located in a nice safe area where a lot of families would go. As soon as I walk into the studio, I am welcomed with a familiar citrus scent that clouds the air. Located against the wall is an abundance of kicking bags that the students use to fight with. We learn how to kick and punch the right way. The school is a vast space and very open. The vibrant purple carpet stands out against the yellow walls which makes the place seem more lively and fun. The instructors who work there are very nice and take care of the children. I just so happen to be an instructor there as well. I am always respectful to the parents and the children just like the other employees. Master Ron Tramontano and Linda Tramontano have been running their karate school for over 27 years.
Since this is a karate studio everyone learns how to fight the proper way, not just flinging your arms around and running away. We are taught to use different approaches to get out of a fight, but if that doesn't work, then things may have to be taken to the next level. When we are taught to fight, we learn how to control ourselves. Not only do we learn how to fight, but we learn life lessons. A lot of children who come in for the first time usually have a disrespectful attitude or they are extremely shy. But after being taught by Master Tramontano they become a better person. I have seen children break out of their shell and some have had a huge change in personality. Even I am one of those people. This is a great place for any child to learn karate and I will definitely have my children attend here one day. I love West Boca Karate. read more
