I have known SHIHAN Shahin Mehrkar for nearly 30 years. What kept me going and training was…read moreShihan's unwavering, but realistic, dedication to exceptionalism. Sadly life gets in the way of plans and I was unable to continue training. I have stopped by over the years and was inspired everytime I watched classes of all ages that the attention to detail was still very obvious. I would recommend this school and it's instructors to everyone without any reservations whatsoever. I would trust Shihan and anyone he trusts to deliver the best training possible. My experience was fantastic and the only thing I regret is letting it slip away from me.

The worst school ever,I had bad experience in this school the make me pay for one month trial, to…read moresee if my 4 years old son like the class, also I spoke with the person in charge that my son have attention problems so she said that is not a problem for them, so my son went for 2 weeks and bc he didn't pay attention in his 3rd class the master instructor told the sensei that he is not going to waste his time with my son bc he is not listening. So my question is those words are from a professional person that who is working with kids? I don't think so! I don't recommend this school at all, if the master instructor doesn't have patience please don't accept kids. Also why they made me pay for one month if after 2 weeks they called me to say that my son isn't ready to take their class? I paid for one month and he just go 4 times in 2 weeks. Very disappointed!

Plenty of families enroll together, with children and parents working side by side. The atmosphere is fun. There are plenty of fun competitions (where not everyone gets a trophy!) and themed days (superhero day, for example). There is also an awesome opportunity for students in more advanced classes to assist with lessons for beginner students and develop their leadership skills. I highly recommend Pawling Karate!

I am grateful for...My family, My Karate Instructors, and Myself. - Words of my 9-year-old daughter, as written on her karate worksheets. I never planned on being a single mother, but sometimes life sets you on an unexpected path. Being a single mom is one of the hardest, most empowering things I've ever done. I wish I could return to the moment in time when I enrolled my three young children and myself for LTSD. I wish I could whisper in that new single mom's ear and say, "This is a flagship moment in your new life; this is going to transition you and your children into finding you are stronger than you ever imagined." Together we have entered numerous karate competitions, ranked up several belts, and dragged ourselves to class when we would rather stay home on screens; we have found grit, bravery, hope, and a new family...a karate family. I am also an educator. The students and young black belt instructors are a vision of hope in a world that sometimes feels hopeless; watching them instruct my children makes me know the world will be okay. Karate kicks hopelessness. All the AP and honor classes in the world could not compare to what path this will set your child on. I used to carry a grief that darkened my soul. You never forget a pain like a fog that lingers in your mind and heart forever. And one day, that fog lifted, and I think that one day was when we started karate.
