Kona Karate Centerville

I’ve had three of my children go to Kona, two of which were taught here from white belts to black belts! Youngest soon to earn his black belt too. The owners are truly wonderful! They don’t just teach self defense skills here, they teach them so much more! I love the values and standards they have for themselves as the leaders and teachers and that reflects in every conversation and encounter and that they also instill into the children they teach here, such as respect, love and compassion for themselves and others. Thank you Kona Karate for helping me raise three children who not only know how to protect themselves and others because of the martial arts skills they’ve learned over several years here. But more so for the hearts you shaped in them with the values and words you’ve poured into them through example and repetitions of your thoughtful words and actions!🥋💕

We are beyond impressed with Kona Karate and so happy to have found it! It came recommended to us, after trying a couple other places for our son in the area. Instructors Te and Jade are personable, kind, and made our timid 5 year old feel right at home on day one! Our boy is so excited to go to each class and comes home beaming and so proud!

Kona Karate has been an amazing experience for my kids. There is lots of great staff and it keeps both of my children active all year round, even the new trainees our doing very good and it is a friendly place for all ages and sizes they teach great martial arts and focus they teach the important of not starting fights and standing up for yourself and others with the strengths you have. 5 stars would definitely recommend.

Kona Karate has been excellent for my kiddo. It has brought him out of his shell and given him a lot more confidence. They teach more than the karate form, they teach good behavior, self awareness, confidence, and more.

The instructors are amazing. They have great time management- making every minute full of movement, skill, understanding respect and fun. My son loves class and is grateful for the high expectations, great youth role models and new things he is learning. He comes home and teaches his siblings. I recommend Kona for life-skills and as wholesome meaningful activity for mind, body and social growth.
