I have been looking for a martial arts school for my son for about 3 years now. I finally came across Miami Budokai, the introductory class was supposed to be for my son but once we walked in my daughter immediately wanted to try it out as well. The staff is amazing and very welcoming. I recommend this place to anyone! My kids cannot wait to go back!!
I have been training at this school since I was about 8 years old and I can truly say the Miami Budokai has changed my life for the better. The values I have learned with the Miami Budokai I have taken with me and applied to everything I do. I can say without a doubt that it has made me a better person. I love the school and the bonds I have created with everyone here.
The best of the best. Not only a great teacher, and experience through the roof, but great people. You will leave this place as a family friend as well. Highly recommended.
Best place ever! Great self defense lessons. Sensei is an amazing teacher. Great with the kids. Would definitely recommend
I’ve been training with Hanshi Luis Fernandez for 6+ years, and have the utmost respect for all of the black belts and instructors. Great curriculum and incredible instructors. Highly recommend for parents looking to enroll their children in a self defense and martial art that teaches discipline and respect. Hanshi Luis offers traditional Okinawa weapons training and seminars as well.
Master Luis Fernandez & his academy Miam Budokai Martial Arts Center is absolutely Second To None in Karate. There’s no better place for the entire family to train .Master Fernandez. Has always lived his life leading by example in all that he does. Go treat yourself & children to a class & your life will be better for it.. Miami Budokai Martial Atrs Center is Second To None.
Excellent karate instruction and it’s the only family class I could find in Miami and Broward so I joined with my 5 year old son. I would very highly recommend!
I have known Hanshi Luis Fernandez for nearly 30 years. He is a superb practitioner and a person of integrity who teaches his students not only the best karate but wonderful life skills. Thank you Hanshi for all you have given our family!
This place is good for learning karate, weapons, etc. The teachers care about the students and help you improve and do well.
Excellent dojo. All martial arts staff are wonderful, patient and knowledgable. Wether you are looking for a place to further your own training or bring your child to learn great values, this is the place to go. All ages are welcome! Highly recommended
I have been a part of the Miami Budokai family for over 20 year . Hanshi Luis Fernandez is a great instructor, he is patient and kind with the kids and he makes training enjoyable. All the instructors are great and I would highly recommend this dojo for all ages.
Excellent place to practice self-defense, karate-do, jiu-jitsu, and build up your relationship with your kids. Highly recommend, come and take your first class.
Pleasanty impressed with facility . The staff, instructors as well as students were very professional, knowledgeable and and most hospitable . Would recommend this dojo to anyone interested in training in a friendly and secure environment .
It’s a pretty well-organized space, and they teach a whole variety of martial-arts.
About 15 years ago I wanted to find a place that would offer my children the opportunity I once had to stay healthy and to learn the skills necessary to protect themselves if a scenario ever presented itself. After 7 months of research I concluded that there was only one place that had the qualities that I was looking for as a father. That place was the Miami Budokai. The reason for my choice was immediately clear, its owner and founder Hanchi Luis Fernandez. Besides an impressive background, Luis immediately gave me the confidence that this was the real deal dojo. A place that makes you feel like family but also demanded commitment to focusing on developing respect, diciplin, confidence and the skills that you and your children would carry with them for the rest of their lives. The rest is history. My choice 15 years ago not only resulted in a valuable friendship with Luis and his family but it has contributed to shaping the amazing character of my children today. As a dad, that is priceless. I highly recommend visiting the Miami Budokai andexperience first hand a program that will umdoubtably have a positive impact on your life.
Excellent, traditional instruction. Sets the proper conditions for martial training.
I have been a student of Miami Budokai Martial Arts since 1989. I was 16 years old and from the minute I walked through the doors and into that Dojo I felt I was at home. I have learned so much from Hanshi Fernandez and I will always appreciate everything he has taught me . Hanshi has been like a father figure to me. I went away to the military for quite some time and lost contact with the school . I spent several years studying other styles of martial arts, but nothing could ever take the place of where it all started for me. My roots will always be embeaded with Miami Budokai Martial Arts and I look forward to continue studying at Miami Budokai martial arts. Thank you Hanshi. Oss.
Excellent and caring teachers teaching discipline focus how to be a better person
Great martial arts school for young ones and adults!
I love this place awesome class
