2 of the best karate teachers in the world. Have some amazing patience and know how to deal with a variety of students.

Amazing atmosphere! Very pleasant instructors

The way they work with the kids and the patience they show 😍

This is the school to go to if you want to become a martial artist. I attended this school while I was in college but I had practiced in another system before moving to Lubbock. There were a few things I had to relearn but these guys were absolutely wonderful about working with me, teaching me their system and helping me get better at karate. Master Downs is a great teacher and wonderful person. His instructors are equally great and take a real interest in your martial arts education. If youre thinking about starting martial arts, you need to check this place out first.

This is a great place to train and to learn self defense. I have been training for 7 months and have made great improvements since the summer. Mr. Downs and his other teachers are great instructors.

I received my black belt from Tom downs in 1996? When are their adult classes ? I would love to see him again

Ive been studying karate here almost 9 years. I earned my black belt here at age 51. I am now 55 and still love it. Recently I was able to go to the AOK State Championships in Dallas and win 3rd place in sparring for my age group division. The self defense taught here WORKS and this is a reputable honest place to take karate.

My daughter has been attending classes here at Texas Karate Institute for a couple of months now and I am so glad that we decided to join! She has made a lot of progress under the wonderful instruction of Mr. Downs and she has improved so much at class AND at home. We are so proud of her progress but even better is that I see my daughter being proud of herself and as the mother of a girl in this day and age, that makes me happier than anything else. Mr. Downs is a great instructor and always makes sure the children learn as well as have fun. If youre looking for an affordable, yet wonderful place to send your child (or even yourself), this is the place!

Great instructors and students! Instructors take the time to work with the kids very well, and really teach them the proper techniques. Very affordable as well.

My little brother attends the classes for the younger class. He enjoys it and has had very good progress. Its the cheaper institution in Lubbock and I highly recommend it

Mr. Down is a great teacher, caring and knowledgeable .The tuition fee is 33% less than other place in town. But my 8 yr old son quit after 1+ yr . This is due to high turn over rate for the kid class. Most of them did not stay more than 3 months. The self defense class need 2 students to practice one each other. When the class has 3 new kids and only one supervisor . The supervision is lacking, and my son got threw down and knock his head when he paired with a new kid. I really want this dojo to be successful but eventually need to move my son to more structural dojo. The adult and teen class are great with much less turn over rate and most of the black belt folks still came to class.

Love this place great experience affordable and Mr downs is amazing I highly recommend

Its been a lot fun taking classes. We have great instructors at TKI.

Great place! Many activities weekly for not only children but the whole family. Very involved instructor!😁

Both my boys are doing it

Mr. Downs is helping with teaching my son good discipline and manners all while learning the art of Karate.

My Grandkids studies here they are really awsome with them they love Texas Karate Institute they would not go anywhere else

Ive participated in a Texas karate institute class and I enjoy it.

Extremely impressed with Mr. Downs and the instruction provided by the Texas Karate Institute.

Always fun and duslupin
