We began with this dojo on a groupon but we're so happy with the changes we saw in our son that we…read moreare now part of the family. We are treated with kindness and respect here and our 4 year old begs to come to class. Not only is it great physical activity but personal development as well. They have a nice program that focuses on behavior not only in class but at home and in school. Each month is a new topic and each month we see great discussions in "mat chat" and then action outside of class. It is a very supportive and close knit group.

I found a trail offer and decided that I would sign them up to see if this would be something that they would equally enjoy. Got through the trial period. They wanted more. Everyone here is so welcoming, patient, and absolutely amazing with the kids. They motivate the kids like nothing I've seen! Very nice. Very clean. Needless to say, my kids are begging to go every day they are open and have decided that this will not be just a summer hobby!

My daughter has been coming here for three months and just had her birthday party here today. I…read morehighly recommend this program. Everyone here is committed to teaching and dedicated to karate. I am impressed by their passion and patience as my daughter is learning! The first couple of weeks were very difficult as my daughter was learning a lot of coordination she never done before, but they made sure she felt welcome and confident. Their birthday party program is amazing too. Thank you guys for investing in my daughter.!

My son has been going to East Mesa Karate for several years & I recently joined. The programs that…read moreare offered are a lot of fun. To name a few programs: American Kenpo Karate, Kali, Hyper Pro, or Weapons training. My son has been in several programs that never once does he complain that he doesn't want to go to his class, he is urging us (Parents) on to go to class. I recently joined to learn self-defense and work on my positive self-image. Watching my son throughout the years develop from a shy child (not willing to step in front of the class to demonstrate a move) to a kid that is so eager to lead is amazing to me. The Baker family does a fantastic job teaching leadership skills that not only work on how to educate others but also teaches respect, having a positive self-image, being motived and so much more! I would & currently do encourage people to check this place out.

The instructors here are beyond intelligent and talented! They are all passionate, kind, helpful,…read moreand determined. I am quite impressed with their level of patience and ability to organize every class as well. We tried their program using the promotion for 1 month. The program not only consisted of an entire month of classes but also a belt and the gee. The establishment was clean but very small. While the mat is the perfect size for the class, it does not have enough space for the parents to sit and the little space that is designated for the parents is far too close to the mat and the little kicks, punches, and loud yells. I loved the story time implemented into every class, and how active they are with the students and their families outside of class (they have weekly events that are fun, engaging, and creative!) **The only issues are as follows**: - The deposit when enrolling/signing up after the promo is $399.00. - The monthly fee is $199.00. - The classes are only 30 minutes each and I believe they can only go to two classes a week.. 1 hour of classes a week for $199.00 a month is not ideal. - Testing. The parents and the children were not made aware that they were testing for their "tip" until the day of. It would have been nice to have that information ahead of time so the child(ren) can be better prepared.

They tell you…read moreit's no cancellations or refunds when you start payments but if you try to cancel before you even pay the registration fee they still will not let you cancel. I told these people I have a family emergency and cannot afford the classes and all I was told "I'm sorry I can't help you" and then I was hung up. I even asked to put a different card on file and they said if that card bounces back that they would still charge my original card. These people are heartless and this place is a scam.

I've been in some environments that are so strict that it's hard to learn because you are so focused on not screwing something up. This is different.

I highly recommend this place for anyone looking into Krav Maga.

He demonstrates each movement introducing the particulars that make a difference in your learning. I've visited and trained at many dojos/ gyms in the valley, across Arizona and locations across the country. This school has to be in the top 2% of quality of instruction. The facility is roomy, clean and comfortable for training. The mats are on a suspended floor which remove much of the ache from any takedown practice. Finally, the students are part of a cooperative community - helping one another to win on and off the mat. Visit and watch a class and you'll see the quality difference knowledgeable BJJ, Judo, and Kickboxing practitioners look for.
