This place is amazing and the best decision every made for my son. He is nine years old an only child and was very timid and easy to say I can’t do this I can’t do that and quick to cry. He has gained so much confidence and strength and belief in himself since starting a few months ago. Shifu Bryce, Mrs t, Mrs destiny and ms Alyssa are all great caring role models and teachers. They have helped to instill confidence in my son and teaching him that in order to win he must learn to lose and that life isn’t a bowl of cherries all the time. There will be mountains to climb but with the lessons they teach here I know my son will be able to face all those mountains and climb each and everyone of them. All the coaches are very caring and understanding and are there to talk whenever needed they don’t stop being coaches at the end of class I can reach out to anyone of them anytime of the day and I know I will get an answer . They are all blessings in our life. Best decision every made and money well spent I love watching my son grow each and every day. This place isn’t just about learning jiu jitsu but shifu Bryce takes the time to sit and talk with the kids and teaches them many life lessons and respect not only for others but for themselves. My son stands a little taller after each class. Thank you isn’t enough for what this place and all the coaches have done for us..
The team at Modern Warrior Martial Arts is amazing. My first visit there, Bryce took a lot of time to really chat with me about each of my boys so he could get to know them on a deeper, more personal level & understand where they may struggle & how they learn best so he could best serve them as their coach. I also love that they take the time to teach & discuss the importance of new life skills each week. It’s important to me that my kids have a positive relationship with exercise rather than viewing it as punishment. And MWMA definitely encourages a positive & fun environment while also encouraging the focus & discipline needed for martial arts (and life.) So grateful for this team.
We love Modern Warrior Martial Arts. All 3 of my kids go there and love it. I have seen remarkable changes in my kids after they have started. It had been a great blessing to be able to continue going during these crazy times. All the instructors are great and they truly care for the kids. I would recommend this place to everyone.
My two boys attend the classes and absolutely love it. The children really enjoy having the chance to play around and be interactive with other kids. COVID has been hard on them so this is an escape! The teachers are nice and friendly and if I need anything they are there with a reply quickly. Thankful for Modern Warrior!
I have had a great experience learning jiu jitsu here. It really is like a big family, and Bryce is a great teacher!
Our son has benefitted greatly from his time training here and we love the staff. Theyre encouraging and supportive and I highly recommend checking out the facility for yourself. Youll find a well trained staff that is excited to help your child learn martial arts while maintaining a safe environment in the process.
In such a short time they became like family. Even with the pandemic they had great communication with all the parents. The place was always very clean and sanitized. I would highly recommend! Coaches are really amazing with all the kids! 💕
Absolutely amazing environment to be a part of. The instructors are all great at what they do in all the classes that are offered. I can honestly say this place was home the second I walked in for my first Jiu Jitsu class. It doesnt matter your age or experience level, everyone here is truly learning and growing together as a family.
This is exceptional martial arts instruction by a team with over two decades of experience. More importantly, they truly care about the well being of the kids and their development into confident individuals who make thoughtful decisions to defend themselves and others.
I brought my son here. I cant even put ibto words how much loved it. His coach taught lessons on follow through and other key principals i am privelidged to have experienced what an awesome vibe and community they have.
Since the first day I saw how Bryce talked and interacted with the kids I knew this would be the place.More then BJJ its values and discipline.
I cant say enough about the coaching qualities Coach Bryce and his staff have at Modern Warrior. At my 1st class I immediately felt he was genuinely concerned about my journey with bjj to be a positive one. He took the time to ask me, and LISTEN, to what i was hoping to gain by training in bjj. Ive been to a few other academies and the thing that keeps me coming back here is the friendships Ive developed in my very 1st few classes. If youre looking for a bjj academy with quality instruction and friendly people all in search of the same journey, MWMA is the place!
Awesome place to take your children to learn the proper techniques for karate! The staff are very welcoming and professional. They handle the children very well and makes sure all of the kids feel included. They also go over topics such as bullying, proper self-care, and compassion with the kids. The children get a well rounded experience when they are there training. Also the owner is very professional and greets all of the parents when he gets a moment! Love this place!
Very professional and clean establishment. I am always welcomed in with a smile. Everyone here is kind, supportive, and encouraging through every class. I am learning a ton, getting a GREAT workout, and every time I walk out I feel accomplished. I cant wait to come back! This is the best thing I could have done for myself and Im so excited to get my little brother signed up next week as well. Thank you for making self defense thrilling, empowering, and most of all... FUN! :)
We decided to give Moores a try after moving to the area. It was highly rated and had a great offer to test out how compatible it would be with our son. We were sold the first week! The atmosphere is great, full of positive people and supportive, friendly parents. Even though karate is a personal practice (everyone is on their own journey!) Bryce has done an awesome job of creating a team among the kids. Hes a wonderful instructor and the kids obviously love and respect him for it, making it easy to feel part of the Moores family. My son looks forward to class and loves practicing at home. We appreciate that they work in integrity lessons and encourage the kids to be kind but firm with their bodies and words. We will be here for years to come and will sign up our younger child when she is ready!
I started at this Studio about 5 months ago for the Fit Moms Kick Boxing 🥊. I have lost almost 30lbs and can now successfully do unassisted push ups. I have made so many close relationships with the fellow ladies who attend the class. I find it really helps to work out with people who all have similar goals/struggles. We are like a giant family. The Instructor Bryce is absolutely amazing. He is always making sure we are paying attention to our form and pushing us to our limits. He consistently strives to keep the class exciting/fun but challenging. He is always encouraging us to set goals and achieve them. He is always open to our feedback and will often implement our suggestions into the workout. This was the best decision I could have ever made to start this journey with these wonderful people.
My son has been attending karate classes at Moores Karate for a short period of time but our experience has been nothing short of amazing. The amount of patience, compassion, enthusiasm and leadership Mr. Kimball and his team show for all the Karate students is absolutely outstanding. Mr. Kimball takes the time to say hello or talk to each parent personally before and after class. The entire team does their best to make everyone feel welcome and at home. I recommend Moores Karate to everyone who is considering signing up their children. You definitely will not be disappointed!
This place is awesome. It definitely builds a childs confidence. I really recommend it. Its twice weekly and not expensive. The children seem to love it. Karate is the way to go. Its self defence and intelligence as well. They learn of compassion or other key words to success. You wont regret it
I have been to many fitness facilities over the years, but this place stands head and shoulders above your average gym. I was impressed by the trainers knowledge, and high level of professionalism. They will make sure that you get great results while minimizing the risk of injury by being attentive to detail, and by modifying exercises when necessary. I strongly recommend this facility!
Our 7 year old son just started classes a few weeks ago and is loving them. Karate camp is coming up and he really wants to go. The only way hell be able to go, was to help sell fundraiser tickets not all of them, but some. Our boy is the type who talks VERY SOFT and were always asking him to speak up. My husband helped him write out a sales pitch and took him door to door selling tickets. Logan has done a fabulous job speaking up and selling lots of them. Hes finding his voice through all of this. Now, we have family waiting for his visit, so he can give his sells pitch to them. Were so very proud of him, and what is ahead. Using are voice, is a necessity in life. We can already see, him on the playground telling those kids who bother him sometimes to back away :-) Theres new passion rising in him. Thank you Moores Karate, coach, Kimball and all your staff for teaching our son and other children to use there voices, amongst, respect, self-esteem and self confidence.
I signed up for the six week kickboxing challenge to get my butt back into gear! The staff are very encouraging and helpful. I truly feel that the staff want every single person to succeed in their journeys, whether it be in weight loss, maintenance, or just in life! Try it, youll like it!
The class last night was amazing, Mrs. T and Zack, I loved the way Mrs T had the kids focus, she has the look at her before starting a new round. Talked a little about respecting each other and space. Also Zack had 1/2 the kids & before starting the game he had them sit and be statues, crisscross apple sauce. It help Sean stay more focus and the others too. What they did at last night 530 Class work. Wow, What a difference in all the kids..keep it up! I also ask Sean to sit by different people each week to get to know others in the class. Maybe switch the kids up in class, so they can get to know each other.
We just started our 6 year old son a few weeks ago and I cannot say enough great things about this place. My son really struggles to focus, be self aware and often acts impulsively. I had no idea that karate could be a huge tool in helping him in these areas. Every class has addressed these exact issues while keeping the kids engaged. They teach very practical and hands on ways to become self aware, think before acting, and to focus and the instructors are extremely friendly and invested.
My son has been coming to Moores karate for almost 10 months now and I can see a positive change in him at school as well as at home. Shifu Kimball and his staff are excellent with the kids. Their lessons each week are not just physical martial arts stuff but it is also positive character building. They teach the kids important life lessons each week and it seems like it really resonates with a lot of them. We would definitely recommend them. We love Moores karate!❤️
My son has been apart of Moores karate for over a year. Its been amazing to watch his growth. Bryce has been great at not only providing a nurturing environment for learning but a community of compassionate students and parents. I feel like my son has gained a great deal of confidence and skill that helps him in everyday life. Moores supports the students in developing karate skills and a healthy lifestyle; mentally and physically. Bryce is always available to help his students and parents with anything from tying a belt for the 100th time to helping them with emotional or behavioral issues. I recommended Moores karate to anyone looking to put their kid into martial arts.
I cannot say enough about how awesome this place is. Bryce and his team work so amazingly well with my son. My son is 4 and can have a hard time staying focused. The team uses positive discipline strategies to keep him and other children on task. I highly recommend this Karate school if you are looking. Moores Karate on 9th street is a positive environment and my son looks forward to going to class.
This place is amazing. My son has been dealing with getting bullied and not having great self confidence. I knew I needed to get him to feel like he could protect himself and to get some self confidence so he could feel better about himself. He has been reacting to the situation and has become angry. There has been some disrespectful behavior because of it. I knew I needed to to help him now so I went searching for the best karate place I could fInd. I hit gold with this place. This place is about these kids. It’s about helping them find the self confidence, respect, friends and so much more. We took him to check it out where the instructors welcomed us with open arms. They talked to my son and I saw my son get excited. It was amazing. They care so much for these kids and it shows. I’m so grateful for this place. In a weeks time my son has kept his room cleaned which is a battle and I saw sparkle in is eyes again. I’m so excited for what’s to come and to see him grow.
Let me tell ya this is the place to be!!! U have a excellent time as soon as u come in that door! The vibe is awesome and kids are excellent!!! The teachers are awesome, and kick butt!!! My son Kingston he wasnt really in to sports and when he go into karate where direct to Moores karate. Best decision ever!!! He wants to thrive more and more everyday and I love to see that my son wants to do his very best!!! Bryce is awesome teacher and has those kids loving every minute in there session... I can hear those kiddos yeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh right now!!! I would never want to go anywhere else!!! This is awesome karate family. And the parents are great too!!! Thanks Bryce u rock!!!!!
I am a regular student of the studio and an advocate of the environment. I joined for more inner growth than physical. Honestly, the environment has done wonders for my self-esteem and confidence. More over, I get to be around people that want you to succeed and improve. One of the best family environments Ive ever had the pleasure of being involved in. Whether it is for self-defense, physical or mental improvement, or just a good family hobby, it will all be at home at the studio!!! i wouldnt be where or who I am today without the friends and family I have made there.
Karina loves Karate! She started in February of this year. It has helped her in many ways... She is coming out of her shell of shyness, a little girl at school wanted to break her glasses... She blocked her from grabbing her glasses and told her NO! She is speaking for herself. She has been helping her classmates who need help. She wouldn’t help because of her shyness. The instructors at Moore’s Karate have taught her confidence ! They are all amazing, friendly, and outgoing they welcome everyone and never judge anyone! Thank you all for being awesome instructors!
Bryce and his team are absolutely amazing. I already noticed a difference with my three kids confidence, and discipline. I highly recommend Moores karate to all kids, and adults. They are a great team, and they uplift everyone. Even the bystanders. Wish I could give 1,000 stars. Thanks Bryce and everyone at Moores karate for doing an amazing job.
Our experience with Moores Karate and Bryce is truly a family experience that spans 10 years. In a way, Ive watched this program grow up into what we see now. My son began taking karate from Bryce before they really had a kid program. Bryce has always been a person my son looks up to, and I appreciate all the care and concern hes shown for my son over the years.Now my daughter is taking karate here! The staff has been amazing helping her learn to focus and work hard, as well as learning the karate skills needed for her belt!Then I started taking the moms kickboxing class!I might be slightly biased, since Bryce and the staff at Moores are basically family, but they wouldnt be family if we hadnt loved everything about Moores so much that weve spent 10 years and counting there!
Hello! I just signed my son up last week. Bryce was very friendly and took his time with us. And, I totally appreciated that, because we had no idea what we were doing. The parents were so friendly and helpful also. We can not wait to start karate soon!!!! So excited to be apart of this group!!!!
Open house yesterday at Michaels school his teacher said he is one of the best & most well behaved student shes had.... proud mom moment. Karate was the best decision I made for him last year. I want to thank you so much for all you do for my son & all the children in your classes
Moores Karate has helped my son in many ways. He has become more discipline. Might seem irrelevant but some how it has been helping him build his character at such a young age. He has maintained his room clean, clothe neatly folded in his droors and shoes neatly organized. He gets home and neatly folds his karate uniform all by himself. Believe me when I say he didnt do this before. It has also helped him speak up around other kids specially when they try to push him around (he is shorter than your average 5 year old).Highly recommended!!
Moores Karate is great! Bryce is very welcoming! The teachers Make the kids feel like theyve been there since day one! my daughter has learned so much about having a positive mindset and how to stand up to bullies. Her confidence is through the roof!
Very expensive, became a money machine, I understand its a business but they started packing kids in to classes so the one on one attention stopped. A lot of the kids techniques were sloppy due to lack of instructor attention. Very ambitious owner, almost too ambitious to keep a family/attentive feeling.
We are pretty new here but love coming! Not only is it a great outlet to burn some extra energy, the instructors give a character focus assignment each month which in turn is helping mold our little ones into awesome people! We cant wait to see what our son will accomplish.
The experience my daughter and I have had here is amazing. The instructors are the best. Very friendly and make learning fun for the kids. I highly recommend Moore’s karate to anyone that is looking for a good karate place.
I highly recommend Moores karate class!! My 6 yr old has been attending for almost a year now and we as a family love going! He has learned so much and grown as an individual. We will be sad to leave!!!! Thanks for a positive atmosphere and thanks to all the constructors who show so much excitement with all the kids!
Great instructors awesome schedule and clean studio!! Hands down best studio in the area.. if you’re looking for Martial Arts or Fitness Kickboxing this is the only place to consider.
I am so happy in this kickboxing group. My kids are also doing such a great job and progressing in their karate. All the instructors are amazing! Recommend 100%
This karate school is 100% onboard with my son!! Bryce & his team give 100% & really pay attention to individual needs. They care that all the students are successful, not only in karate class but at school & home. I like that they teach a new character trait every month and drill it in their heads week after week. They take a short break from teaching karate moves to do a little “circle time” with the students. They really respond & you can tell at home. It’s such a positive environment!!!! It’s not just about learning how to defend themselves but it’s giving my son life skills & good values that will impact him to be a more confident respectful person.
Since starting karate at Moore’s Karate 9th Street 4 months ago, my son has shown a huge improvement in his behavior already! This is one of those life-changing events I know he will look back on as an adult and be so grateful we got him involved at such a young age. Bryce & his team are truly changing young lives here!!! They focus on building character, teach respect & definitely improve self-confidence. We cannot wait to see the progress still to come! They’re not 5 star rated for no reason!!!
Karate has been one of the BEST things we have done for Jonny!His school work has improved! His respect and discipline has improved also!He is so excited each week to go to Karate!His teacher, Bryce Kimball makes this experience so enjoyable for the kids!
After just a short time we have fallen in love with Moores Karate. The staff is extremely welcoming, kind, patient and takes time with each child. My son has been dealing with bullying and Mr Kimball has taken time for one on one instruction, advice and confidence building. My 7 year old now has something he is excited and passionate about and looks forward to twice a week!! So glad we found this place!!
Awesome place! Instructors are fantastic and work amazingly with children. Enrollled my 6 year old girls here and were so pleased with their customer service, professionalism and work ethic. Highly recommend this place!
My experience here was a truly amazing experience. Its a great workout as well as learning self defense. Some of what makes it so great is the awesome people and instructor. They all made me feel welcome and gave good feedback and make you feel motivated. I would recommend Moores karate on 9th street to anyone who really wants to learn, have fun, and meet grate workout partners.
Such a wonderful experience. I have seen a wonderful change in my girls attitudes and confidence. Really looking forward to when I can have them continue this journey!
Their karate class is AMAZING!!! I have seen huge improvements in my child in just a short period of time. She is even doing chores around the house and cleaning her room without having to be asked. She is learning respect, self confidence, and discipline. I would recommend this karate school for children of all ages.
Bryce and the team at Moores are on a mission to change lives! The community and attention given to athletes and their success set them apart. This is not place to just workout, this a place to completely change your lifestyle for the better!
My son was so shy his first day that he cried. Mr. Bryce came over and told him it was ok to be scared/nervous and let him watch for a while and participate when he felt comfortable. He was very reassuring and understanding. The whole staff is supportive and encouraging to each individual student. They sit and take time to understand each students strength and weakness and not just collect a check. I highly recommend Moores Karate!
Thank you again for working out the payment for me and helping me last night with my jabs. I have really noticed a big difference in my balance and strength. This class is awesome!!!!
My three kids love it here. They are learning values along with how to defend themselves. Shun Shifu Kimball always makes my wife and I feel very welcome. Its been a great experience.
It’s okay. Way over crowded for so many people and it smells. They never turn the air conditioner on.I just noticed there’s a lot of repeat reviews from the same people. I had forgotten that Bryce sometimes holds a whoever writes the best reviews gets a price.
This is the place for a great work out. They mix it up to ensure you’re not bored and always give you a chance to leave it on the floor.
I signed my kids up for a six week promotion I saw on Facebook, and was unsure how they would take to it. My 11 year old son plays basketball & football, and he chose not to continue after the 6 week trial was up because he had to miss some basketball practices for karate. My 10 year old daughter did not want to do karate initially, however she really took to it & LOVES going to karate class! She is high functioning low level autism, and it’s hard to find social, physical activities for her to get involved in, and I was so happy we found something she likes. To anyone on the fence about trying it out, I would say at least do the 6 week promo that is always advertised (it’s even on the window of the building) and try it out. I’m so glad we did!!! The instructors have been really nice & great to work with, in fact, I just signed my daughter up for the upcoming karate camp & she’s so excited to hopefully get her next belt!
I am beyond happy to have found Moores Karate for my 8 year old son and would definently recommend them! Instructor Bryce Kimball and his staff are absolutely fantastic with each one of the kids and the families! My son loves being apart of the classes and looks forward to go every time!
We love the classes! The instructors are amazing and really good with kids. Bryce is amazing and he is very helpful and you can tell he really cares
Great environment for the kids to grow and learn discipline and structure. The way parents are incorporated with the sweaty hugs are great. My kids enjoy their time here and look forward to coming even on the weekends!!
My daughter Lillian loves Moores Karate. She has grown emotionally and has increased her ability to follow directions. This has been a positive place for her to grow. I appreciate that everyone checks in with us and makes the experience so personable.
My daughter Madison just loves going karate! The instructors are so great they dont just help your kids but they also help the parents. There were a couple of times when Madison didnt want to go (once shes there she has a blast its just getting her to go) I told Bryce what was going on he suggested that right before we go to karate to have Madison do a chore or 2 then she would be more than happy to go. It worked like a charm! She has also been a lot more respectful and Dependable! I would recommend to any who is looking for something to put your child in that Moores karate is a great place not just for the children but for the parents too, every time we go we are always greeted and they make us feel like family and I think we need a lot more places in our community like this!Thank you to Moores karate for always making us feel welcome!
My 9 year old son has been going here for a few weeks now ..he absolutely loves it. The staff here has been great teaching discipline and respect ..Ive noticed a big change in my sons attitude on things its helped him out a lot. I would recommend this place for anybody.
Moores karate to me has been a blessing for my family. My son has learned to be confident with himself and his abilities to defend himself. He started the karate program 2 years ago being bullied by other kids and not standing up for himself in any way. He has finally built up enough courage and confident (finally) that the bully leaves him alone at school. I have also joined Moores karate for my own personal growth in Martial arts and as an instructor. I could not be more please with how welcoming all the instructors and families are here at Moores!! I highly recommend the academy to any parent looking for a way to help their child grow and learn how to protect themselves. It certainly takes a village to raise children and Moores 9th street has a great community of wonderful people.
We have had our twins learning Karate with the team at Moores Karate on Ninth street. Our sons have learned a lot here and really look forward to each class. Highly recommended if you are looking for opportunities to build confidence in your children.
One of my friends told me she joined a kickboxing class. Told me to take a trial class, to see if I liked it. Being that I dont do too much exercise, my only exercise I do is walk a mile to work 5xs a week. My weekdays consist of walking to work, a mile away and then coming home from work, making dinner, and just being lazy. I just wasnt motivated. I have a gym membership & go every once in awhile. So I was a little hesitant, because I wasnt sure if I would stick with it, plus it was way out of my comfort zone. I decided to make that choice & get out of my comfort zone. But since joining the Kickboxing class, I have upped my exercise to 3 days a week, plus I still walk to work 5xs a week. I absolutely love this class. The instructors are awesome, the class is very motivating and there is a great support system from the instructors, as well as the everyone in the class. If I can get out of my comfort zone, so can you! Everyone should come & try it at least once.
After trying this place out I decided not to sign up. I think it is strange that they don’t mention the monthly tuition fee and registration fee on their website.. it seems like it’s a big secret everyone here must get a different deal. They told me it would be about $150 a month for 2/ 30 minute classes a week.Moving on this is located in a bad part of town.Parking is Horrible they have maybe 15 parking spots for 50+ families. As soon as you arrive you will be greeted by an overcrowded room filled with unfriendly people. No chairs, No place to sit, they have maybe 10 chairs for the 30+ parents that do stay for the class since most decide to leave because no one wants to stand for an hour. I highly suggest you find a better place. I would never recommend.
I signed up for the 6 week kickboxing challenge with my husband and loved it! Instructors were great, all the other woman in the class were friendly and cheered eachother on. Meal plan was easy to follow and was an excellent atmosphere to start my fitness journey.
I currently enrolled by soon to be 4 year old son to Moores Karate and I must say that I am very pleased and satisfied with the courtesy of the staff and Mr. Kimball. My son has showed so much improvement already. it has only been a short amount of time that he has been with the group and he is usually very antisocial and shy, however since he has joined, he has opened up a lot more. I am so pleased that my son is happy and has such a great time along with learning discipline and respect especially around people he does not know. In the last few days my son has learned to take responsibility to clean his room without being told, this has shown me that the assignments Mr. Kimball has instructed us to do helps my son and myself to work together. I look forward to what the future holds with Moores Karate. Thank you Mr. Kimball.
Great overall experience... took both my son/daughter and the staff rocks. Great w/kids, very patient and understanding. I recommend Moores Karate 100%
Fit Moms Kickboxing @ Moores Karate is a HIT! Literally! Loved the class, great energy, great workout! Highly recommend it! Super nice people too!
What a great place to bring your child. Very friendly and professional staff. They are very involved with teaching children and your child will love the classes
1.They get you in with dirt cheap prices.2. If you want to sign up they charge a $150 fee and $179 a month.3. No parking or park in a sketchy looking parking lot in the back.4. No place to sit.5. Most of the kids there will be sad to know their parents can’t afford for them to continue past the 6 weeks.
Moores Karate 9th Street has become a second family for me. What began as a desire to get a black belt (I grew up in the Bruce Lee era and a black belt has been a lifelong goal) has turned into an extended family that has encouraged me into making life style changes that have improved my overall health and well being. Losing weight, gaining confidence and getting life enhancing skills all while having a great time. It has been a pleasure to watch Shun Shifu Kimball as he has grown and matured into a wonderful teacher and roll model for so many. One of my greatest joys is to have shared this journey with my grandson creating bonds and memories than can never be broken. I have received all this and the confidence to go through life knowing if need be I can kick butt if I have too, how could you ask for more.
This karate place is amazing! The instructors are great, the environment is so positive and my kids absolutely love going!! Self-defense is so important for people to know with how crazy this world has gotten. I Love Moores Karate on 9th st !!!
I cant say enough good things about this place. I signed up my 3 boys over the summer and I have seen nothing but positive improvements in all 3! Their confidence and self esteem levels have increased, they have become more social and were actually looking forward to starting the school year! Which is a first! The instructors may just be teaching the kids karate moves but the skills and life lessons my kids are learning are endless! Couldnt be happier! 👍
Were so thankful we signed our daughter up @ Moores Karate! Just from the initial phone call from Mr. Kimball, I knew we found the right place. Mr. Kimball, along with all the staff genuinely care about all the kids...always positive and quick to acknowledge when theyre being ROCKSTARS! She has learned so much since she started in February. Not just karate moves but values and life lessons. Thats one of the many reasons why we love it here. Its only been a couple months and shes already showing more confidence in herself that we werent really aware she was lacking. Shes also more focused & active both at school and at home. She really enjoys attending every class, then practicing her moves on her dad and brother. Its been an all around positive experience for us @ Moores Karate!
Best place for kids .. Teachers at karate care about the kids...The teachers since the first day have really been involved ....The confidence in my child has changed alot. I would recommend this place.In the few months he has been here he has shown so much progress at home with chores and other duties..Thank you so much everyone keep up the great work!
Moores Karate is an awesome place! The Shifus are all amazing and my daughter has had a great experience there. I cant say enough about Shift Kimble and his team.
My Grandson has been going to karate at Moores Karate. Im really impressed about how they encourage behavior and respect. A few weeks ago my grandson acted out and was disrespectful to family members. My daughter brought up his behavior with the Sensei Bryce. His belt was taken away from him. Which was a horrible thing to do for him but he needed to see that he needed to respect others and that being in karate meant he would honor that commitment. Bravo bravo, it is great to see that this karate school believes that karate is more than just inside the building. I am amazed at how much it has affected, in a positive way, my grandson. He was able to earn his belt back and is ready to graduate to the next level. I would highly recommend this place.
Moores karate is such and amazing and positive environment. It has helped my son find confidence and respect. Any concerns I had the instructor gives 110% to help in anyway.
We started at another karate institute but made the switch to 9th Street specific to Bryce being the instructor. He not only teaches great skills with karate but life character skills as well. Our son has been going to his studio now for about 4 years. Our son has also endured some life changes inside our family as well. Loss of grandparents, aunt and uncles. His ability to communicate his feelings and thoughts at his age of 8 is remarkable. The studio has been a huge influence and reinforcement to what his father and I implement. We dont see this as a sport or activity, although is it, but we also see it as a lifestyle and aid to growing our son to have and model character traits that will produce a positive journey for his life.
This place is awesome my son love it its all he talks about. The staff here are very respectful and take pride in teaching there students.
My son is 6 and he LOOOVES Moore’s karate. Everyone is super friendly andGREAT with kids. They keep the kids engaged the whole time and when kids aren’t listening, they take the time to one on one talk it out. These guys and gals are wonderful!
When I enrolled my 6 year old son for classes, as soon as I called the studio, I was impressed, Mr. Kimball answered the phone and he was very friendly and welcoming. My son was excited for weeks to start karate. When the time came, we went to the studio, met Mr. Kimball, he gave us a tour and then class was to start. My son stood there and would not join his class. This happened not once, but twice, when we left my son was crying. He was scared, he was intimidated. I Facebook messaged Moores Karate early on a Sunday morning, not expecting to get a response until Monday and Mr. Kimball messaged me back within minutes. I explained my thoughts on why I thought my son was not participating and we scheduled a one on one for further discussion and to show my son outside of the class setting what karate is about and what would be doing. That same day (as the one on one meeting) my son completed his first class! He called me while I was at work to tell me all about it and how much FUN he had and how much he LOVED it! He was on cloud 9! He couldnt wait for his next class so I could be there so he could show me - he asked me every day, is today karate day? until the day finally arrived. I got to go to that class and watch him and he was so comfortable and at ease, and had SO much fun, I was so happy for him! His confidence level is already increasing and he wishes every day was karate day! If anyone has considered karate for their children, check out Moores Karate on 9th St - amazing studio & instructors, they actually care about their students. 5 HUGE, GOLD stars!
After 6 weeks of trying and enjoying it. My son moved up to the teen classes and is looking forward to gaining more experiences in his new classes. 😊
My son has only been attending this class for a few weeks and already he has shown so much improvement in behavior. I wasnt sure this was going to be a good fit for him but each week he shows improvement. His teacher told me he has done a 360° turm around in class more focused more assertive listening better. Great place great atmosphere!
I thought of karate for my son to help come out of his shell, before starting he wouldnt even look people in the face and simply say hi, no hand shaking either hes been to four classes so far and hes in the stores waiving hi to people, he looks his instructor in the face and says yes sir, Im blown away and so very proud of how far hes come in such a short period. Hes more comfortable in his own shoes and I love it he has such an amazing sweet and goofy personality and I want him to share that will the people tha he meets, that goal is becoming reality
My daughter just loves going to class, thanks to all the Masters for there hard work and dedications to all the kids. THANK YOU! Great place for kids and parents!
My daughter Annabelle has been taking karate here for about 9 months now. It all started with a 6 week trial. I decided to give it a shot because she has really bad anxiety that is effecting things like school and she had to be held back in first grade because of her refusing to answer questions or even try, she would just shut down. At the end of last year she was reading around 8 words a minute, failing spelling tests and every thing to do with school was a battle. After about a month or so of karate i got the news from her teacher that she was suddenly reading 60 works a minute, she was getting 100% on all of her tests and even at home It wasnt nearly the battle it had been. And no karate didnt make her smarter, what it did was it gave her the confidence to try and show what she really knew. She finished this year in the highest group in her class, at a 3rd grade reading level and more than ready for 2nd grade. She still has her struggles but thanks to karate and the amazing staff here she has the confidence and the skills to deal with things a lot better. That was my personal experience, honestly i dont think theres a child out there That couldnt benefit from karate. The staff here has been so patient with Annabelle throughout all of her struggles and it is always such a positive and fun environment. The class is fun but they are learning so many valuable things as well. The children learn discipline, self control, self defense, they learn about how to deal with bullies as well as good sportsmanship. There is a huge emphasis on character education. Not to mention just having the support and advice as a parent has been awesome. Im so glad i decided to give that 6 week trial a chance.
This is a great place to learn discipline, teamwork, and building character. Our kids love coming here every week and have a great time learning karate!
Great experience thus far, this program has improved my son’s overall confidence level. He is confident an looks forward to each karate session.
I highly recommend this place because of the friendliness of the staff and it is the most fun I have had working out. I have improved my form tremendously and the instructors are always willing to help if you have any questions. Shifu Bryce Kimball and Shifu Chase Gnos have really motivated me on my journey to be fit. I have noticed my reflexes are quicker as well. Thank you all for believing in us.
Im excited to say that my boys definitely enjoyed their first day at Moores Karate this week, the class was full of energy and the staff was great, my boys got home and immediately started to act out what they learned that evening. Its an amazing experience and I by the first day was very pleased with what I saw. Thank You Moores Karate.
Mr. Kimball is amazing with the kids. Teaches them to respect themselves and their parents. Great discipline. I would recommend Moores Karate asto anyone
I started Moores karate over ten years ago, and it was life changing.Ive met amazing people, learned amazing things, and feel amazing too.Ive studied with a bunch of different schools and teachers, Moores karate is hands down the place for me and my family.
My family and I have been a part of the Moores Karate 9th Street community since November 2015. After seeing how much fun and personal growth physically and mentally my son was experiencing I knew it was definitely something I deserved as well. I started taking evening adult class in April 2016 and I feel much stronger and love the feeling of being challenged physically each night in class. Shifu Bryce Kimball and everyone in the adult class have been so instrumental in my journey of being the best me physically and mentally as I know I can be.
This karate school is the best facility for begining student to experienced students. The staff take the time to get to know the students as well as the family. The environment is welcoming and you feel like a part of the family. Not only do the students learn karate, but they also learn self esteem and discipline. I would recommend Moores karate to anyone looking to join a karate school.
I love this class because it’s helping to my son and the coaches are great people!! Always caring for the students!! If you are looking for a place to teach you kids!! This is the right place!!!
I really appreciate the lessons this class is teaching my son. Lots of effort from staff for childrens participation
