I have been a member of Shotokan Karate-do of Long Island for over a year now and it has been and…read morecontinues to be a very positive experience. I am nearing 60 years old and work as a Captain with FDNY and many of the members that I work with are 20 years (some close to 30 years) younger than me. Through this training I have lost weight and gained flexibility and functional strength; and just move better. This helps me to keep up with the younger members. The Instructors are highly skilled in martial arts as well as teaching and there is never a lack of personal attention. You are not just getting a good workout but learning a traditional martial art and valuable self defense techniques. Overall the classes just make me feel good. After a class that is challenging both physically and mentally. On the drive home I feel very relaxed both physically and mentally. I highly recommend Shotokan Karate-do of Long Island. Jim Kiesling

The trainer textes me as I'm inside the lot we have to reschedule because the class started. It was a 5 min difference and I'm not new to boxing. I felt that was very rude and I told him well I'm not going to come back. And he sent me a peace sign response . I felt it was a bad first impression of the establishment, unprofessional and I'll never recommend or do a trial here. I'll pick another boxing gym. But the lot is a decent size that's one nice thing I can say. I do not recommend being in communication with Larry.

They break out in stations and are closely watched and trained. They follow the usual belt system along with the tips earned based on level of achievement. Students have to EARN their First belt!!!

The Senior members of the "Do Gakuin" team worked with me to overcome the challenging beginner steps to coordinate my fighting tactics in this lethal art. It's a small team so I am blessed that they took me in and stayed patient to teach me step by step to explain and develop my fighting skills. I am grateful to Steve Gottwirt, Shihan and also Sensei Abrams for agreeing to train me. If you too have a need to train, and are also facing life or death challenges I would strongly recommend this dojo! I have worked out in other dojo's and they do not compare.
