West End Dojo teaches Koei Kan Karate, a traditional Japanese martial art. Besides the obvious health benefits of living an active lifestyle, you will learn many other traditional aspects of the art. You will also become part of a family that pushes you to do better and to train harder every class. It's an amazing experience to be able to workout with my son, while we learn vital life lessons and techniques that we may need one day. I'm very thankful for my dojo family - they all have helped us become stronger, healthier people both physically and mentally.

I rarely attended, and did not work out hard when I did. Sure, Nak Muay is not inexpensive. However, you are receiving the equivalent of a training session with every class. The instructors are personable, and high level competitors and/or professional fighters. The people in class next to you grow to be friends given that you are training together multiple times per week. This gym is also woman-friendly! That doesn't mean it has purple frilly mats. That means you will find other women in just about every class, and present as instructors, they are also ranked within the World Kickboxing Association. Lastly, the kids program is highly recommended. In just 6 months, our young niece saw a boost in confidence that translated to better grades at school and improved behavior thanks to the discipline that martial arts affords.
