Following the introductory classes, the company was not upfront about a '12 month membership…read moreagreement.' They did not review this 'agreement' with us prior to signing anything. When we asked for more information regarding this 'membership agreement,' they gave us the runaround. We explained to them many times we would have not signed this 'agreement' if had known the terms and that we need to cancel due to a change in our financial situation. When the charges continued on our card, we stopped payment and then they charged another card on file without contacting us or authorization. We feel like we were swindled into a 'membership agreement.' It's disappointing to experience this lack of transparency and deceptive business practice.

My now 9 year old daughter and I started training at Dojo Karate - Elk River in the summer of 2015…read more My daughter is now an advanced red belt and I am a brown belt. We have thoroughly enjoyed our training and will be continuing to our black belt. The instructors are excellent and truly care about helping you succeed even if you are not very athletic. I also enjoy the fact that there are many different classes offered so it is not just karate. They have weapons class, sparring and kickboxing to name a few. My daughter and I attend at least three times per week. For the reviewer who complained about the cost, martial arts are a lifelong training. What other sport can you participate in for life? Dojo Karate offers classes for ages 3 through adult. The fact that you can train everyday if you want for many years is well worth the price. Add up the costs of all the fees for your child's sports career through elementary and high school and I'm sure the cost will be comparable or more. I did not feel pressured when we signed up and they sat down with our whole family to explain everything and addressed our questions and concerns. We have also made many new friends. I would highly recommend Dojo Karate to anyone looking for the self-discipline to learn the martial arts.
