Our Martial Arts Classes

Jessica M. recommends American Karate Academy

Fantastic karate school. My son loves this school. Sensei and his staff are great. My child has flourished and grown in the past 7 months. He works hard to learn the exercises and the moves. I have to say one of my favorite things about this school is that my child has to show hard work, understanding, and effort to progress and receive his next belt. No participation trophies here; only hard work and practice. I also appreciate the COVID precautions in place, especially since social distancing is hard under these circumstances. Can't wait to see my kiddo continue to grow and learn karate.

This is a magnificent place for children and adults alike. The owners are truly marvelous and kind-hearted people and also expert martial artists. My 5-year-old daughter is loving every class and it's all she talks about. We are in love with this place. Great family environment and a good mix of skill and discipline with fun and allowing kids to be kids. Don't look any further. I wasn't sold on the Martial Arts idea and resisted putting my daughter in it, but boy was I wrong. And I chose the perfect place for my daughter's growth. This academy is of great value and has excellent prices. We will be part of the family for a long time!

Jennifer Segarra Fernandez recommends American Karate Academy

My son was dealing with an issue in school and he needed to build confidence and learn self-defense. We found them on the Internet and went during Christmas vacation. When we walked in we knew we found the right place for Jorge. Mr. Garcia was very personable. he sat down and heard our story. Then what impressed me was when he took my son, sat with him, and spoke to him one-on-one. He showed him a few moves.

That day we signed him up, brought his uniform, paid for his classes and the rest is history. Jorge is happier, confident, and ready to take on the world! Thank you Mr. Garcia for bringing sunshine to Jorge again. Also, he has wonderful assistants such as Mr. Gabriel, Mr. Alex, and Mr. Eddy. his staff is terrific.

Do yourself a favor and sign up your son or daughter to learn karate with Mr. Garcia. You won't regret it!
