My son started in the Little Ninjas program when he turned 5. It was a great introduction to karate and was geared towards younger kids. The instructors focused on listening, self-control, and sportsmanship in addition to the fundamentals of karate. Unlike other studios we have tried, Karate USA is about your childs attitude and skill. They dont move your child along to the next level so they can collect the next fee or pressure you into buying all kinds of products. It truly is about learning the necessary skills and putting in the time and effort.We have also had a birthday party at Karate USA and it was awesome! What 6 year old boy wouldnt love to cut his birthday cake with a samurai sword?Its not just for kids either. I participated in the FIT USA program while my kids were in school and it was a great work-out! And it was fun to do some of the moves my son was doing at home.I highly recommend Karate USA!
Karate USA has been a great activity for my 7 year old son. He joinedas a Little Ninja 2.5 years ago and now he is about to get hisblue belt.This school has it all. The instructors are full of positive energy andcreativity. They are very passionate and dedicated to their students, which isreflected by the constant individual attention that each student gets. We are very happy with the program
Great mix of martial arts....Taekwondo, sparring, and grappling. My kids have been going for four years and they love it. When they reach the advanced belts they have the opportunity to assist the teachers with the classes....I think this may be one of my kids favorite things and their self confidence really shows when they are teaching and critiquing forms of their peers.
My son Danny has just begun lessons here and he is thoroughly enjoying himself! Price is very competitive and instructors are knowledgeable and patient (my son is almost 5 years old). Im very impressed with the ability of instructors to give personal attention while in a group/class setting to help Danny grasp some of the finer points of instruction. Seeing my son so enthusiastic about learning karate is very exciting for me as a dad. Not sure if I should tell my son he is learning MORE than just karate but some very useful and important life skills (self-control, responsibility, respect and so much more)!
My son is 4 years old and is in the Little Ninjas class. The instructors are great and very patient. They provide one on one individualized attention for each child as necessary during the class. They ensure the kids are learning, focused, listening and respectful. My son always looks forward to class and likes to practice what he learns at home. I have attended a few other schools and this one fits my son perfectly. I would recommend Karate USA for any parent looking for a Karate school for their little toddlers.
Instructors are great - work well with the kids, kids pay attention and are interested in what is going on in class, classes run on schedule. Both kids and instructors are very respectful. I never knew what great exercise this would be! I thought we might do gymnastics this year too, but my daughter is getting plenty of workout on balance, strength, aerobic (especially on Fitness Fridays relay races, etc). Ive been impressed with the quality of Karate USA and would recommend!
Karate USA has been a real fun experience for my son who just turned 4. He loves it- its so much fun to see him practising his moves at home. He can go for a class everyday. My daughter wants to join too. The other day she made a art piece for Karate USA and gifted it to them. The coaches are really nice. I would recommend it.
My daughter has been at karate USA for two years and LOVES it. She especially loves Mr. Ryan Lee who somehow manages to teach every class with discipline, kindness, and patience. She is expected to continue her discipline outside of class as well, by keeping her room clean, making her bed everyday, and getting an exemplary report card, all of which is rewarded by a gold star system. She is expected to compete in tournaments and prepare for exams, which she truly enjoys. We are happy with Karate USA and would enthusiastically recommend it to friends and family.
My eight-year-old daughter has been attending Karate USA for five months and loves it! She wants to go to classes as often as possible and her commitment has gotten her to an orange belt already. The instructors are great and are teaching my daughter discipline and self-confidence. I would highly recommend this facility.
My 11-yr old son started taking classes at the Johns Creek location about almost 3 years ago and he LOVES it. They have a very kid friendly atmosphere with positive reinforcement (they give tape stripes on their belts between each belt color advancement). The teachers are good with kids and provide lots of positive feedback to keep them engaged. Overall, a great place to learn karate.
Our daughter has been attending Karate USA for almost a month now. She is so excited each week to go to class and learn from Mr. Bartow, Mr. Lee and Mr. Tomas. It took her a little while to get her first stripe, but now she is so motivated to learn and study and be the best karate student she can be. We are working on seeing an improvement in behavior at home, but we know this will come with continued attendance at Karate USA. I love how much attention each child receives and the staffs focus on making sure the children know the proper forms. We look forward to a great summer and beyond. Karate USA is a great choice for us and I keep recommending it to so many friends!
David I and my office have reached out to you several times in regards to your invoice for medals which is past due over 1 year now. The last time you emailed me a month ago you said you would mail the payment the following Monday. To date we have not received it. The $600 balance is still open. Please advise as to why you will not pay this invoice.
My 4-yr-old son started as a white belt Little Ninja about 6 weeks ago, and I must say that so far, I am extremely pleased with this establishment. Originally, I wanted to enroll my son in Karate classes because I wanted him to be in a structured extracurricular activity that would re-emphasize a few of the values I work hard to instill in him at home - Confidence, Discipline, and Respect to name a few. I truly appreciate that the teachers expect the Little Ninjas (even at age 4) to focus, listen and follow directions. The students also learn that if they do not follow directions, there are consequences - they must sit and watch their peers continue class (usually not more than a minute or two, but to a 4-yr-old, its an eternity!) My son and I look forward to Karate class every week!
Excellent Quality program ::Karate USA experience has been great for my son. He joined couple of months ago and has earned his yellow belt with all his hard work and encouragement from teacher. This program not only help with my son with his physical activity but also encouages him to show respect and responsibility.I would recommend this program to all parents who have young or older kids.
My daughter has been attending for nearly a month and she went from i dont want to do karate! before she got to her first class, to loving each class. She is really excited about her first exam and belt progression. I would also highly recommend Karate USA, not only because of their years of expertise and instruction, but also because of their ethos in shaping a well rounded character.
I was looking for a Karate Studio to bring my kids Brooke Allen and Max Douglas to and Im very pleased with my choice so much that I, Ashley Douglas, decided to take classes with my kids. We are all loving the instructors and helpers. The all around structure and concept of the program is great. If you are looking for a place to go. THIS IS IT!!!
This is a top notch studio. The instructors demand respect and teach it as well. The kids really learn how to behave and enjoy every aspect of martial arts. I love the variety of schedules to fit our busy life.
Karate USA has been a great activity for our daughter since she started and we will continue to bring her there to sharpen her skills. She enjoys the lessons they provide and gets excited when she accomplishes the tests. We already decided to start bringing our younger daughter to the Little Ninja program when she turns 3. The staff are great and the pricing is competitive with other dojos in the area. Thanks Karate USA!!
Both of my boys (ages 6 and 4) take karate at Karate USA. I think I love it as much as they do. The coaches are nice but firm and I love that about them. What made me choose this place over others was what they require from each student before they are able to advance to the next level. That speak volumes since it is about a 20 minute drive to karate three days a week and I pass about 5 other karate academys along the way. Both of my boys love it and look forward to karate each time and never complain about going.
Our son loves this place. Mr. Bartow is a great instructor. And when he isnt there, the teenage assistants do a great job. Overall, we recommend Karate USA to anyone looking for a high quality and fun martial arts experience.
My son loves attending his Karate Class at Karate USA. When he first started, he was a little nervous but the instructor worked with him and once he got started he really enjoyed himself. Now he is asking me to take him to Karate class. He has only been going a short time but I am excited to see how well he will advance over time. The instruction is done well and in a positive environment which goes a long way.
We have had a great experience here. My son is 6 and weve been attending about 9 months. THe instructors are great with the young ones, lots of patience but high expectations. Class size always seems manageable and I like the option of the unlimited classes in a month.
My son started at age 4 in the Little Ninjas class and now 2 years later has earned his orange belt in Taekwondo. I initially picked this school because it was the only one near my house that did not require a long term contract. We have stayed because it is a wonderful program that has given my son very valuable lessons in responsibility, perseverance, and confidence. The staff are all wonderful with the kids mixing just the right amount of strictness with fun and humor. They all seem to love what they do and really enjoy the kids! I would highly recommend this school to anyone with kids (or adults) interested in martial arts!
I highly recommend Karate USA. We joined for the summer and love it. The instructors are extremely professional and knowledgeable. They are amazing with the kids. We are going to continue with Karate USA after the summer program because it has been a fantastic experience!!!!
We are new to Karate USA. Ive been very pleased with the ease in signing up online, finding classes at convenient times, and the professionalism of the staff.My son needs to improve his ability to focus and show self control. Teaching these qualities seems to be a big part of Karate USA. So far, this has been a great experience.
Karate USA experience has been wonderful for my 9 year old son. He joined 2 months ago and has earned his yellow belt with all his hard work and encouragement from teacher. This program not only help with my son with his physical activity but also encouages him to show respect and responsibility. My daughter is also wanting to join this program. I highly recommend this program.Thank you.
My two boys, ages 4 and 5 started at Karate USA about 2 weeks ago and LOVE the class! I have already noticed a difference in their attention, focus and helping around the house as a result. The instructors show a strong interest in the children and reward based on the values we encourage at home.
We have had a great time! The instructors are wonderful and hands on. They teach karate, discipline, community service, self-control. The kids have learned a lot and have a blast! I have an amazing time every time!! I would recommend this school.
My son has been going to this location for the past two years. He has always been motivated to attend classes here and has established good rapport with the instructors. A good clean facility!
My son has been at Karate USA for a little over a month and absolutely loves it. He looks forward to going every week. I really like how engaged the instructors are and the level of attention and participation expected from the kids. The facilities are very clean and well maintained!
My 6 year old son looks forward to his attending class at Karate USA. Im noticing that hes becoming more focused and has a want to improve his skill. He comes home and practices the forms and kicks displayed to them in class. Mr. Bartow, Mr. Lee along with the rest of the staff are great at challenging the students and keeping them engaged. It is a well rounded program and I highly recommend to anyone considering!
I took Karate lessons here when I was a kid and loved it. Now my daughter is a little ninja and looks forward to going to class every week. Since starting classes, there has been a major improvement in her attitude.
The Self family- We are very grateful for Karate USA, Mr. Lee, Mr. Bartow and staff have changed our lives. Our extremely sweet and intelligent 4 year old son suffered from selective mutism and anxiety. We as a family decided to try out Karate USA before moving on to therapy and within 3 weeks he was actively speaking and participating in class. It has been a few months now and he truly enjoys coming and being in class, he has also participated in 2 belt exams and one tournament. It is amazing to witness the positive changes that has come from him attending Karate USA. And because of the changes others are able to see what a wonderful person he is.The staff is amazing and are great with the kids. We highly recommend Karate USA.
Ive been part of the ladies boot camp program for the last year and a half. The instructors are great and Im in the best shape of my life. I highly recommend Karate USA to Anyone. They really do care about every member.
We started this summer and love it! Karate USA has great instructors, a great facility, they are great at communication and very organized. My son is really enjoying it.
My 7 year old son has been in Karate USA for around half year and he loves it. The main coach there teaches the students in a very positive and encouraging way.
My daughter trains here for the past one year and and has been improving self confidence and control.She enjoys. Instructors are caring and patient towards kids.
My son started lessons at Karate USA this summer and already got his orange belt.We are very happy with his progress and that he gained his confidence and self-esteem. Thanks to Karate USA and their awsome staffs!!!
My daughter loves attending her Karate class at Karate USA. She is very excited to attend class and learn more. I am hoping that the skills that are being taught through Karate remain with her throughout her growth at karate USA. My daughter has only been attending class with a short time, but just viewing the other students give me hope and encouragement that my daughter will be a great student also.
Kids love Karate USA Martial Arts Academy Johns Creek. Amazing martial arts program, building leadership, fitness, self defense, and confidence in both kids. Great program.
My son Neil attends Karate USA, Windermere and loves it. Kevin Geary is excellent in managing and teaching the kids discipline while having fun learning. I would recommend Karate USA for all kids. It was the best decision we made as parents.
Excellent center. Lessons resonate physically and mentally with our son. Highly recommend!
My son is going to Karate USA for the past one month and he is enjoying every moment of his training. I have looked around other karate places before visting Karate USA and I am impressed with the way they are teaching the kids, not just the training but also the discipline.Thanks guys for the great job !!
My daugter starts her Karate lesson when she is 4. She love it ! And she is much stronger phsically and mentally! She built her self confidence and a lot of great attitudes such as consistency, hard work, respect, and continuous improvement for sucess!We definitely appreciate all the patience and efforts of the staffs. Last month we sent our 4 years old son to the beginner class too. They look so cute in the uniform and I am so happy to see their smiling face in the class!!!
The coaches are very encouraging. Not only did they teach the Karate skill, they also teach the kids to be a responsible young man.
Karate USA / Master Bartow offers a high quality program that reaches beyond physical exercise. As a parent, I feel inspired to be a better role model, thanks to a simple but effective review system for parents and children alike which focuses on behavior/attitude at home, school and community overall. During class, Master Bartow and his assistant teachers lead boys and girls of a wide age and skill level in a manner that is respectful, disciplined, challenging, all-inclusive yet personalized. Did I mention FUN? While challenging his students to give 100%, Master Bartow also never forgets to throw in a little fun and make everyone laugh. Thank you Master Bartow for being such an inspiration to all of us!!!
I have both my kids go to this school and we love it. Infact my son refused to go to any other karate class when windermere closed down so we had to ignore the distance and re enroll him here with Mr Bartow after a break. My son has been with him since last 4 yrs and my daughter who started recently also loves it. I see a big benefit in personality development in our kids Mr Bartow really knows his art very well and is very good with kids
I visited a few great Taekwondo centers with my daughter and really liked Karate USA from the beginning. The instructors are helpful and very patient with the kids. The class times are flexible and not over crowded and I love that they incorporate character values and service projects into their program. The center is very clean and the parent waiting room has large glass windows so that you can easliy watch your childs class.
Sathvik and Thanmayi joined Karate USA this summer and we found they both love the Karate lessons. The skills they learn at Karate USA they love them and demonstrate at home, it is fun to see kids performing :-).we love the improvement they are showing and the skills they are learning.
Great instructor! Excellent karate classes. Fun!
My son has been taking classes here for over two years, and he still loves it. The combination of learning forms, Tae Kwon Do, and Brazilian Jiujutsu has given him a well-rounded martial arts education. He is more confident and disciplined because of what he has learned at Karate USA: courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and indomitable spirit.
KARATE USA has been a great experience for my son, he joined in the Little NInja program and has now moved on to the Taekwondo classess!!!He loves going to the classes especially the grappling classes. The instructors are really nice and I really like how they give attention to each child in the class.
My son has been with Karate USA for over a year now and we have nothing but good things to say about this school. The instructor, Mr. Geary, pays attention notonly to the taekwondo skills but also to the overall development of the kids. Besides taekwondo a lot of importance is also placed on skills like listening, respecting others, responsibility and sportsmanship. My 5 year old son has definitely benefited from these. He LOVES to attend classes and is always motivated to work for the next higher belt. As a parent I really appreciate Karate USAs no-contract policy and the flexibility to pick any day/days of the week to attend class.
I like Karate USA the best karate studio Ive ever been at so far.
My daughter loves Karate USA - a great balance of fun, discipline, and fitness.
My son goes here and he has learned so much
This place only cares about your money! The owner doesnt show any interest in the childrens development. I just moved here and I am shocked at how a place can be ran with just money in their hearts and not having the children come 1st!
It was great!
