As newcomers, our family could not be more pleased with our experience thus far. Our 10 year old consistently looks forward to attending class and is always beyond enthusiastic about everything he is learning while always having an absolute blast. Not only does this place make him happy but it makes us as parents happy. Our son's determination, drive, self confidence, and even his listening skills have very noticeably sky rocketed since his very first class. Enrolling him was one of the best decisions we could have made for him.

What an amazing community to be a part of! My son started at East Coast Karate one month ago and is already actively participating in everything extra that he can. This week he is so excited to attend the Super Mario Parents night out event and even signed up for camp this summer. I can tell that he has finally found something he loves and will stick with for years and years.

I am so happy to have found this place for my 3 year old! The entire staff has been so friendly and welcoming. I just have to say that Sensei Chris is just absolutely amazing with my son, he was even able to turn a meltdown into a good class for him. I would recommend this place to anyone!

When my daughter became bored with ballet and wanted more challenges she discovered karate. When we visited East Coast dojo I was immediately impressed. It is orderly, the senseis present, knowledgeable, professional and very good with children (of all personalities). most importantly their students are excellent in behavior and skill (the only real test for a teacher). A month later and now my wife is kickboxing here, and our daughter is as excited to go to classes as the first day. Thank you, the service East Coast Karate provides is worth so much more than their membership fees. If you or your child want to learn karate (and enjoy the countless benefits of a traditional martial art) please visit East Coast Karate. You’ll be as impressed as I am!
