You will not find a better dojo than Pro Karate Center. It is an amazing place that fosters your children to grow into amazing young adults. As a testament to their ability to help your children grow and become amazing young adults, just look at the Senseis that teach the classes. The majority of them started as children themselves at Pro Karate Center and moved up the ranks to black belt and teacher. That truly speaks volumes about the type of dojo it is. I call Sensei Dean the child whisperer. When my son first started at PKC he was scared and cried and did not want to go into the dojo. Sensei Dean came over and said something to him and my son got up and walked right into the dojo and hasn't looked back since and he is now a brown belt. That is the type of thing they do that sets them apart from the rest. They truly care. Everyone who works at Pro Karate Center truly cares about the students. They care not only about their karate training but about the student as a whole. They care about how they do in school and about how they behave in their everyday lives. That is what makes this dojo different from the rest. They are helping you raise your children to be the best they can be and that is an amazing and rare thing to find in the world today. In addition to providing the best karate instruction around PKC also has "extras" that they do for the students including Parent's Night Out and a fun Halloween party each year. Their tournament team is amazing as well. Several of the competitors are National Champions and a lot of the team members have gone on to the National Karate Championship, Junior Olympics. They have even had some students go on to join the USA Karate team and compete at Worlds. If you are looking for a dojo look no further. Pro Karate Center is your dojo! read more
