Texas Karate Institute is a exciting place for all ages to learn martial arts by owner Mr. David Mason and instructors that are top notch. This school has been around since 1962 for this reason! All of the classes are taught by black belts that focus on excellence and on each individual students abilities to bring out their very best. The skills you learn here last your life time! Thank you for always making me feel like family when I am there!

The Instructors and Atmosphere are AWESOME!! Enrolled my daughter, and in less than a month,the since of pride and confidence is simply unbelievable!!!! You dont just get martial arts training, discipline, self-confidence, and sense of honor are built in. My daughter cant hide the sense of accomplishment and pride when she was awarded her first belt.She expressed desire to get to the next belt level, and several instructors quickly stepped forward to encourage her. Texas Karate Institute is warm and inviting, with a family friendly atmosphere.

Four years ago I began my journey at Texas Karate Institute to achieve my fitness goals. The program has brought me a ton of added confidence and some of my greatest mentors in life are the instructors at the school. The workouts get you into shape very quickly and the classes are fun. If youre looking for a martial arts school that will help you achieve the greatest you than can be, look no further.

This has been a wonderful place for my entire family to work out together.The classes are helping me become more active and develop a healthier lifestyle. I have enjoyed participating in the the daytime homeschool classes with my kids and other families as well as evening classes with just adults. I have been encouraged by the instructors and others in the classes, all working to help each other succeed in reaching their goals, both in karate and outside.

Training at this dojo has brought balance to my life. Master Jays classes clear away all the stress from working an office job all day, while maintaining a high level of fitness. The staff is professional and respectful. Kids and grownups of all levels from beginner to advanced work to become the best version of themselves.

This is a fantastic program. I always wanted to try karate, but never had the opportunity. I struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts, and this gave me a constructive environment to work on my body and mind. I have been in the program close to 6 months and I have earned my green belt just recently. If you are on the fence because they are operating thier school inside a church, dont. They arent trying to force you to come on sundays or anything, they just want to empower you to be the champion you may not know you are yet!

We love Texas Karate Institute. Our son has really started to grow and learn control and discipline thanks to his instructors there. The respect he has been showing to his family and teachers as a result of T.K.I. is an added bonus. Thank you TKI!

Texas Karate Institute has been one of the best things we have done for our teenage daughter. She is not athletic and has always veered away from sports. When we signed her up at TKI we were skeptical that she would like it. But as soon as she put on her karate outfit and started working out on the mat, her whole perspective on Karate changed. The owner and instructors gave clear and precise directions. They also gave great support and guidance. She not only loved going to TKI but this is one activity she shines in. She absolutely loves it and gives her the opportunity to be involved in a sport. I cannot thank Mr David and his team of instructors for the help they have given my daughter. Since she started at TKI, she has grown in her self-esteem and feels more confident with her physicality. They have tailored her lessons to fit her needs and capabilities. Everyone involved has been so supportive and patient. They teach respect and honor. This is going way beyond just teaching karate. I am so grateful for Texas Karate Institute. Thank you!

My son has been at Texas Karate Institute for 5 yearsThe experience has been wonderful! This school provides so many life lessons for the kids! Self Discipline, control, respect for adults and higher belt levels as well a great motivator ( to move up a belt level at TK you must acquire the skill but also follow up with the behavior at home and school.)We had experienced some difficulty with my son not listening to adults and even hitting out at his Dad when our son was younger - Mr. Mason came through with some great suggestions that helped create a consequence my son will never forget!( hint it involved removing my sons belt for awhile- He became a no belt at the Martial Arts school! AND a follow up by cleaning the Martial Arts school mats once his parents decided his behavior warranted him wearing his belt again!) Once youve joined TK you have joined a family- If you choose to use it that way they will be there to help with more then just acquiring Martial Arts skills!We feel so lucky to have had our son involved in this great program.

Texas Karate Institute was just the place I was looking for.I had left Karate around 1992, and 24 years later was overweight and not as much energy. TKI was just what I needed to get back into shape. Better nutrition and TKI has helped me to loose over 35 pounds, help get my energy and self confidence back up.They have excellent well qualified instructors, and everybody is personable. There is very good comradery among both instructors and participants. The instructors are tops. They will work with you on your goals, and prod you to continue to improve yourself. They are there to help you.The attitude of TKI is great - it really is family friendly; go sit in and watch the youth class and youll see how much they enjoy it.Did I mention how much fun it is? It is. Come see for yourself.

Been a part of the TKI family for almost a year. Tried several schools before deciding to go with TKI and were glad we chose them. TKI is the best.

I began my karate career at TKI as an adult in the early 1980s and received my blue belt at the time. Then life got in the way and I discontinued my training. I wanted to achieve my goal of earning a brown belt so I began checking out several schools in the DFW area last summer. After some investigation, I decided that the best school was still TKI and I now drive 60 miles roundtrip 3 days a week to class. This is not a black belt factory, but a place to truly learn all facets of karate. The instructors are very professional and make sure that every student receives individual attention. And the entire staff is very helpful and friendly. I know I made the right decision in returning to TKI and am well on my way, at age 68, to meeting and surpassing my original goal.

I grew up in fort worth Texas and started karate as a child. I remember driving to Richardson to pick up uniforms, belts, etc. . This Karate school has been around for many, many years, and more state, us and world champions have come from Texas Karate Institute then any other Karate school you can think of.In 1999 I moved to Plano Xx and wanted my 3 year old son to take karate. Of course the only notable school in the area that I knew of at the time was Texas karate Institute. I believe the discipline, hard work, and leadership skills he learned at TKI helped develop him into the person he is today and I could not be any happier.I currently have two other children attending TKI one 10 and one 9. I believe that attending classes at TKI help with self esteem, discipline, and as well as physical fitness.
