I am a 41 year old so I signed up for the adult class. I was in the class with other adults that were older than me. The kids classes were going on when I arrived and it was packed. The class was fantastic. I learned a lot and really worked up a sweat. It was more fun than I thought it would be. As an alternative to the boring gym this was exactly what I needed. I can't wait to learn the more advanced aspects of the martial art. I can't wait until my next class! The people there are top notch. You won't be disappointed. My daughters want to go now because I had so much fun.

My ninja-obsessed 7 year old son had been begging us to sign him up for karate lessons, so we…read morecalled this local studio to set up an intro lesson. Neither my husband nor I ever took karate, so we were not sure what to expect. Sensei Ken Piper quickly accommodated us and spent an hour with us describing the program and costs, and then provided a demo lesson to show our son what would be expected during a class. Our son loved it so much we signed him (and his older brother) up. Both have been attending for nearly a year now and are now orange belts. We appreciate that not only are they learning various forms of karate (basics, sparring, kata), but they are also learning self-discipline and respect. They have taken the lessons from the dojo to their classroom and home. Pricing is very affordable, especially for parents considering joining along with their children. Packages are available from 1 lesson a week to unlimited classes. Special add-on lessons (weapons and seminars) are also available. The schedule is very convenient with evening and Saturday classes. Beginners can move through their first few belts within their first year which is encouraging. The Senseis are very patient with all ages and abilities, and a typical class usually has a diverse group of 10-15 students ages 7 years old to 50. Safety and hygiene are also emphasized, especially mid-pandemic. The facility is good and there is plenty of space for classes and overflow seating for spectators. The studio recently remodeled their waiting area. The studio's goal is for every student to reach Black Belt within a few years, so we hope to stay that long!

My wife and I decided to let her do some trial classes nearby at Mr. Piper's Family Karate Academy. All of the instructors we met were very kind and respectful. It was instantly visible that all of the kids looked up to and respected the staff at this school! The classes were fun and my daughter always enjoyed attending. She never fussed about going to class. Not even once! Which speaks volumes for a 4 year old! They do a great job teaching respect, discipline, manners, being humble... etc. (the whole karate thing!) I started my own martial arts journey nearly 14 years ago at another karate school in my hometown of Mooresville, IN. Not to the fault of Mr. Piper or any of his instructors, I ultimately made the personal decision to resume classes (now with my daughter) at my hometown dojo. I would like to thank Mr. Piper for re-igniting the passion I once had for martial arts by enthralling my daughter into the karate lifestyle! I would definitely recommend Mr. Piper's Family Karate Academy to anyone who is interested in becoming a martial artist!

Some of the instructors have trained in Okinawa, and have a deep respect for the culture and the art of Shuri-Ryu karate. At the same time, they are extremely approachable and down to earth. They're some of the kindest and most patient people I've met, and they care deeply about their students. They will meet you at whatever level you're at, whether you're young, old, fit, or out of shape (even if maybe you've never formally exercised your whole adult life...). They will push you to improve, but they are mindful of your limits. I've always felt challenged, but never singled out or left behind. I recommend them regardless of your age or experience level.
