If you are thinking about signing your child up for karate there is no better place! House of the Samurai is perfect for anyone thinking about karate; whether you are looking to get some exercise, or you want to compete at tournaments. The family that owns the dojo are the real deal. They not only teach you karate skills but they strengthen your mind, your confidence, and body. My children are thriving here.

I earned my black belt at the age of 19, garnered a centered mind/body/spirit de corpse, and embodied confidence thanks to the wise, skilled, and patient teachers from this Dojo. Excellent training, powerful Lessons, and tranquil environment. 6 Star review

A dojo that feels like home - the most wonderful place for our kids to learn karate. Senseis do an incredible job guiding and encouraging the kids to do better and want to improve. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Our family has been here for almost two years, and we'll never go anywhere else.

My son has been going to The House of the Samurai for over a year now and we love it! He has learned so much and knows how to apply what he learns in class to everyday life. The instructors are great and know how to teach to all ages and abilities. I would recommend this for anyone interested in karate.
