At the recommendation of two friends, I took my son to try an introduction to karate at Phoenix…read more His first two lessons were free. After the first lesson, he was given his white belt and beamed from ear to ear. Now it is a few months later and he still loves going there. Next month he will graduate to his yellow belt! The environment is friendly and casual. This is very much a family business. There are often three or four instructors for each class, which is great for the younger students. The class splits into various belt colors (white, yellow, orange) to suit their different skill levels. They play, exercise and practice respect and self defense. They also offer classes for adults, kids summer camp, host patents' nights out and birthday parties. They are pretty awesome.

My husband and I have contacted action karate, and the town to try to get this matter dealt with. We were told they'd let the guests know to not park on the side of E Ridge Ave, closest to Main St. and instead go a few yards down to where there is endless street parking. It's a shame, because I hate judging a business based on things their members do; however, the business itself does not seem to care either.

This is not a belt factory. Sensei Flournoy is patient, mature, caring, fair and strict. Students…read moreare never asked to do something Sensei doesn't believe they incapable of doing. Training concerns both the mental and physical aspects of karate. Classes are small and therefore can focus on the individual needs of each student, taking into account both the student's strengths and weaknesses. One cannot say enough good things about the way this school is run. I have studied there for over a dozen years in both Shotokan karate and Ki Juijitsu. I can count the times class has been cancelled on one hand (usually due to snow). The oldest student in the adult class is now approaching 70 years of age, the youngest in the youth class is probably around 5. E.W.

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.

My son James just turned 15 years old. We had a nice birthday party for him but he has no friends…read moreso he had no fun. The other kids at school often bully him because he doesn't know how to defend himself. When James told me this, I knew I had to do something. Thankfully, I remembered that we had one of the best MMA dojos in the world right here - Victors MMA!!! I brought James to his first day of MMA 6 weeks ago Saturday. He didn't want me to leave but I had a meeting with my associates so I left him there for his one and a half hour session. When I came back, I was shocked at how happy James was. He was sweating furiously and having fun while fighting his peers. In the car he was so hungry that he ate both of the cereal bars that his mom packed for him! Nice! Since then, James is always so excited to go to MMA every weekend. He has become so much more social and every week I have to pack him more snacks because he's so hungry. Last week, he finally decided that he wanted to enter into a karate tournament using his new skills. We allowed him to go to one on Saturday, and James had a blast. He used so much energy that he fell asleep in the car ride home. That must have been from all of the times that he got slammed down onto the mat. He keeps complaining that his neck is broken, and hasn't gotten off the couch. But I'm sure hes being dramatic, and anyway the hospital is too expensive. But overall, Victors MMa has changed James for the better.
