We enrolled our 6 yr old son here about 3 months ago. I don't know where to start about this place & how glad we are to be a part of it. Every child in class is so focused and eager to hear & learn what the instructors say. My son looks forward to karate every single day since he started. Many parents of the students there stay & watch the kids learn which made environment I found to be ultra welcoming.
Excellent dojo! Organized, high quality instruction, rigor, and very personalized attention.
Helps children and adults gain discipline, confidence, and much more. Very nice, very clean and allows children and adults to find their true meaning in life.
I’d give it more stars if I could. The best experience i’ve had in a dojo, training here feels like you’re part of a family. I recommend Black Dragon to everyone!
Dan Jenkins is the beating heart of Black Dragon MAA. He and his staff, junior instructors have been invested in the future of my granddaughter for the last 4 years. As she has advanced through her belt ranks, her relationships with these people has deepened. This is not a dojo that just tries to collect fees for classes and belt tests. They truly take a personal interest in the well-being and development of the students. Dan pushes his students toward unlocking excellence on the floor and in their character. We are looking forward to being a junior instructor family when my granddaughter is ready.
Black Dragon Martial Arts is a great dojo to be a part of. We have had one son involved with them for almost 6 yrs and another for about 2 and a half years now and we know that they are being setup for success in everything they do by being part of Black Dragon. Sensei Jenkins does a fantastic job of not only instilling confidence, discipline, responsibility, and respect inside the dojo but also outside of it as well. By including the parents as much as possible it helps the kids harness their power to do good at school, home and in their community. We HIGHLY recommend this dojo for anyone who wants their children to be taught life lessons along with learning how to defend themselves and feel confident in their ability to not only better themselves but also feel confident in their ability to feel that they can do anything in this world that they work hard for!
Great environment for adults and kids. Great instructors.
My boys started their karate journey at Black Dragon Martial Arts 4yrs ago. My oldest was 6 when he began and his little brother, then 2, was eager to start his classes which began 2 years later at the age of 4. Black dragons provides a safe, competitive, motivating, confidence building and most of all a fun environment for many kiddos. This is not just a typical karate studio, but a karate family. We were welcomed in by fellow students, parents and instructors all of which have encouraged and continue to encourage and root for our kids to be the best part of themselves. Those involved in the dojo are helping us raise more confident children who will grow to be better adults. I would highly recommend the dojo to anyone who is looking for a extended family or support system to be a part of. My boys are excited to continue their path and achieve their black belts!
My children and I have been a part of Black Dragon Martial Arts Academy for about 4 years. The instructors are fantastic and work with children and adults with all levels of abilities. Being a part of the studio has been a fantastic experience and continues to have a very positive influence on our lives. All the programs for both adults and children are high quality and professionally run with knowledgeable instructors. Looking forward to continuing our training along with a lot of great students at Black Dragon Martial Arts Academy!
I will be a black belt
I want to join u If anyone can tell it's for girls or boys
My daughter and I have been a part of Black Dragon since 2011. It is by far the one of the best experiencs in our lives! I started out taking Kick Fit Bootcamp twice a week for a year, then last year I decided to try karate and discovered that I love it! Now I take karate twice a week and bootcamp once a week. Bootcamp helped me to lose 45 lbs and keep it off for two years! Karate has helped my daughter to become more confident in herself and the things she does. This is by far the best dojo hands down!
