It's amazing the way Master Kaz is able to control an entire class, while teaching different groups at their level. Master Kaz is stern, but is stern with kindness, and as a result, my child has confidence and demonstrates self-control. Family Karate Academy is a serious training academy, with Tae Kwon Do instruction, and you can expect your child to learn quickly and grow in technique, confidence and discipline. Master Kaz trains the students to be healthy, focused, and respectful. His instruction includes warm-up. Master Kaz also teaches stranger-danger, bully prevention, and has family events. There is plenty of room at the academy, including changing rooms and observation space. Lots of parking as well, and located conveniently at the SW corner of 15 Mile & Mound, in Sterling Heights. Master Kaz is a Master, google him! This is a great place for your child to learn karate. Training is recommends 2/week, and payment is easy, whether you choose to pay monthly or longer. CC accepted. Master Kaz will treat you and your child like family!

My oldest son has been coming since he was 6 and he is about to turn 14. What they teach them in class is phenomenal but it is also that they tell them to apply the same dedication and discipline to their every day lives outside the dojo. When I hear my boys repeat something that either Mr Donahue or Mr Kratz has said to another person I know they are in the right place.

He has a lot of patience for the beginners and is tentative to making sure they don't feel out of place. He also makes sure that the beginner is learning the proper form. This is more than just learning how to kick and punch. This also teaches discipline, gives confidence, respect, do good in school, and how to behave outside. I strongly recommend. This is great for all ages.

Only reason for 4 stars is the monthly charge is a bit high compared to other schools in the area. Still a great school and highly recommended.

Copy of my same review from google, except it's 5 months now:…read more If you're looking for a place to train Brazilian jiu-jitsu in a welcoming, supportive environment, look no further than Bushidokan. I've been training here for the past four months and it's been a totally positive experience. I wanted to pursue a martial art for the first time in my 30's to stay fit, improve my mental health and learn to defend myself. I didn't want a competitive, tournament driven environment - but something more practical and functional, and thats what Bushidokan teaches through its Moreira lineage. Sensei Alex and the other instructors here are knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to help you improve. Whether you're just starting or you're an experienced practitioner, they'll take the time to work with you one-on-one to make sure you're getting the most out of each training. I can say without a doubt that my fitness and self-defense skills have already improved dramatically since I started training here. If you share those goals, and want to be part of a supportive community, this is the place to be.

I've trained under Sensei Rob and Sensei Laura for over two years and couldn't be any happier…read more Their dedication to not only their students training but their own training is amazing. They are upfront with what they expect from you and are a constant helping hand in taking you to places you never thought you could reach in your training. As someone who works out regularly I am still able to get a great workout every class. At no point have the classes got "easier" and I leave just as exausted as the first class I took. It is a training where you can push yourself every class and expect results, both mentally and physically. Working an office job, karate provides me the perfect stress relief from a corporate position. I can clear my head and focus on myself for an hour or two. I can go on and on of the benifits that karate has provided to my life and well being, but each person is different. Come on in and see what karate training can provide to you.

I've used reviews literally hundreds of times in my purchasing decisions, yet I've come to the…read morerealization that I never write them. In an effort to pay it forward, I decided to start by reviewing a place I feel people need to know about. The dojo in Clawson MI is a place you must check out. The instructors there (Sensei Rob and Sensei Laura) are top notch and have all the traits you could possible seek (highly skilled, passionate, knowledgeable, patient, and just really good people). I've known them for the better part of the last 15 years and can honestly say few people have made more of a positive impact on my life than they have. Aside from the great instruction, the fellow students there are truly a joy to train with. It's humbling when you see them show as great of an interest in your development as they do with there own. You find yourself growing/developing within the group and new friendships are one of the many results. I feel very fortunate that I have gained some great friends over the years through training. You should expect the same. In addition to getting some good exercise and learning/developing self defense techniques, I personally find this place a great mental refuge and a way to get away for 90 minutes from the daily grind. When you train you don't think of that project at work, class you might have a test in, lawn in need of being mowed or your cable/phone bill....you just think about the training. You may, like me, find this to become almost essential to a healthy life. So you've read this far, isn't it about time you just go up there and try a class out for yourself? One of the first things Sensei Rob ever said to me was that the hardest part of training is walking through the door. Once you are there it is easy. While I wasn't sure about that comment at the time, I found it to be very true (in other things as well). Some of you may have driven by the dojo already....contemplated coming in. My hope is that this review will give you the motivation/desire to take that toughest step and walk through the door to give this place a try. I am sure you will thank me later!

Master Tong has shown concern and safety towards the students that are now attending his classes…read more There are squares on the dojo that students stand in to keep safe distance from others. There is no contact with anyone. Staff are wearing masks while training. There are a couple students and staff that cannot wear due to asthma or other medical. Parents that do stay for the smaller classes of no more than 10 or 12 all wear masks. Master Tong and all of his assistants are fully following safety issues with sanitizing equipment and asking students to sanitize. I feel totally comfortable bringing my grandson here. It's an honor to be taught by such caring and professional staff.
