I've been bringing my daughter to K3 for years. She loves it and have so much fun. She's a brown belt now and have learned so much practical knowledge and self defense. The instructors are consistent and fantastic. They really care about your kids but they definitely expect the most out of them, and it is wonderful to see your children rise to meet those expectations! Highly recommend K3 and my daughter will stay here she's a black belt (or beyond)!

My daughter loves this class very much...she was very shy in the beginning, and this class boosted up that confidence in her to come out. She was even asked to join the leadership team which is really challenging her to overcome her fear of speaking in front of others , an now she is so proud to become a coach and help future K3 martial arts students.

Our son (age 7) has just started his journey at K3, and he LOVES it. I haven't seen him so excited about any other activities or sports he's tried. I truly appreciate and admire the way the Sensei and Coaches work with the kids and teach them discipline and focus along with the Martial Arts. I believe we will be a part of the K3 family for a long time. THANK YOU

It's such a blessing for my son to be apart of this Dojo. ALL of his Sensei's are amazing and incredibly respectful and great with all age groups. They are incredibly skilled and work very well with children, especially those with autism such as my son. I very much enjoy watching Sensei Johnny work with my son, as he is incredibly patient and passionate about what he does. The owner of this Dojo is absolutely wonderful, kind-hearted and I can imagine proud of what he has built. They also do adult classes and I fully recommend this Dojo.

My 3 kids started at K3 Martial Arts a little over two months ago but we can already see the positive effects in and outside the dojo. We wanted to find an activity that teaches them a physical skill, self-defense, confidence and discipline and this place delivered. The supportive and caring atmosphere coming from the teachers and the students makes it a safe space for the students to grow their self-esteem and confidence. The teachers are organized and pay attention to every student. The dojo is very well kept and offers a comfortable place for the students to learn and for the parents to watch the class. The kids love it and we, parents, are happy as well. We are looking forward to see our kiddos learn and grow their skills there. We highly recommend K3 Martial Arts.

K3 Martial Arts has been an amazing experience for our son over the past two years. This isn’t just a place where kids learn self-defense—it’s a place where they build confidence, make friends, and grow as individuals. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming and supportive. The senseis are a perfect balance of youthful energy and impressive expertise. They set a great example, showing the kids that professionalism and mastery can be achieved at a relatively young age. It’s inspiring for the students and motivates them to push themselves further. We’ve seen so much growth in our son—not just in his martial arts skills but in his self-confidence and social connections. K3 has become like a second home to him, and we’re so grateful for everything this place has given him. Highly recommend!

K3 Martial Arts is AMAZING! My 5-year-old daughter started classes here a few months ago, and I can’t say enough good things. She was a little shy at first, but the instructors were so kind and patient, helping her feel comfortable from day one. Now, she’s excited to go to every class and shows off her new moves at home. Sensei Johnny and the other instructors have a perfect mix of fun and structure. They’re great at teaching discipline and respect without ever being intimidating. My daughter loves earning stripes on her belt—it’s such a confidence booster! I’ve also noticed her focus and coordination improving, and she’s learning important life lessons like perseverance and teamwork. I also love that there are two female instructors on the staff providing her with role models. If you’re looking for a place that will help your child grow while having a blast, K3 Martial Arts is the place. Highly recommend it to any parent!

I’ve been a student here for pushing 5 years now, and I couldn’t think of a better place for a kid to be. Martial Arts isn’t only about learning to fight or defend yourself, but truly about bettering oneself. Kids I’ve seen that have felt demotivated are active and up-spirited, kids lacking confidence have grown to be strong mentally and physically, and so much more scenarios I could mention. The years here could go by in a flash and you see your child or the other students you’ve trained with here since earning that white belt with a glowing smile once they’ve finally became a black belt. Once you get that belt, it is well deserved.

A shy little four year old started in this dojo. She is going on 10 and recently received her Jr. Blackbelt. This dojo and the staff have not only taught her courage, determination, responsibility and accountability, it has taught her family the same. Being an only child with a single mom, we as grandparents wanted to make sure she could face the challenges that life would bring her. K3 has instilled many great qualities in our granddaughter. She is not afraid to stand up in front of people and express herself. She is not afraid to speak up if she sees something wrong. She has turned into a compassionate young lady with excellent study habits. She is excelling in school and loves to read. The encouragement this staff provides is amazing. The look on her face when she completed her mile in the time needed for her blackbelt and sparkle in her eyes when she received her certificate, well that is enough to show this dojo is there for our kids. Thank you K3 for your support and encouragement and time you dedicate to these kids and to us as parents.

Our son recently started at K3. His first 2 classes were with Johnny and my son LOVED it. He can't wait to go back. We struggle with getting out son to listen to instructions and Johnny was incredibly thorough. He was the perfect level of friendly while also holding the authority level my son needs in order to listen and respond. I was hesitant that my son wouldn't follow the commands in class but have been really happy to see that he has. I appreciate that K3 encourages the kids to follow the requirements in order for reward. This is incredibly valuable in a child's learnings of putting in hard work in order for the pay off. I really enjoy seeing the level of respect the students have in K3. The leaders care so much about the progress of the students and their achievements, that is very clear. We can't wait to continue with our classes!

K3 Martial Arts is #1. Our community is blessed to have them. They reached out to us, Junction Elementary Parent Teacher Club (PTC), and let us know that they are here to help us with our fundraising efforts this school year (2017-2018). Can you believe it? A business reaching out to a school to help raise funds?! The PTC did not have to go to them. This year, they have offered 6-week classes with all proceeds going back to the school. And, it did not stop there. They have offered two “Parents Night Out” with 100% going back to Junction Elementary. And, Junction will have a movie night before the end of the school year. Not only has Junction profited, but parents have also “won” – easy date night and awesome environment for their children! Junction students are having fun! They are learning discipline & confidence, and building character & leadership qualities! K3 Martial Arts is teaching kids self-discipline, hard work, and respect. The PTC urges everyone to check them out. We are proud to have them as part of our community!

I have been taking my son here for about 3 yrs now. He started when he was 4.5. And what a transformation? I am so proud of him. He looks forward to attending sessions. Learning and growing with every class he takes. When I asked him once..what he wanted to do with Karate, he told me this, "I want to be like Sensai Johnny". I said with a grin, " Why is that?" He replied, "Sensai Johnny is a Master like Splinter from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." He was 5 when he said that. My Son will be turning 8 this year, and you know what? He still wants to be a Master..The instructors here are amazing and inspire these children to believe in themselves. Why wouldn't you want your kids to thrive for something more? To be involved in something greater than themselves. To maybe, one day, teach others to believe in themselves like their predecessors did before them. To be better human beings! Give K3 a chance! I'm sure glad my son did!

He loves it, and is excited to go to practice - I don't even have to nag him to get off his video game to go. He likes the instructors and feels comfortable with them. He responds well to their badge-earning system (lots of positive reinforcement), and loves using the weapons. He's earned his second level red belt and is looking forward to going all the way to his black belt. We really love K3 Martial Arts/Team Dragon Star. I highly recommend it.

Want to provide your children with an opportunity to build their self-confidence? Think your child might benefit from an environment where they get to have fun but are still expected to remain respectful and courteous? Team Dragonstar is the place to start. My son was anxious when entering the dojo just over two years ago, but Johnny had him ready to learn within minutes. His concerns about moving up to middle-school never manifested because he now has the self-confidence to know he can handle pretty much anything thrown at him. Our daughter begged to join after watching her brother attending class a few times. Despite a heavy dance schedule she still gets to the dojo as often as she can and trains her forms and defenses at home. Her brother even works with her on weekends using the praise-correction-praise method we learned in class. Give it try - you’ll love the results.

The instructors Johnny and Doyle and the other student teachers are wonderful with the kids and make it a fun environment for them

When I signed my 9 year old up for TDS he was still very withdrawn and emotional from the divorce his dad and I were going through. Within just a few days of the program, he was smiling again, he was excited to go to class, and he would practice all the time. He loves the instructors there, especially Sensei Johnny, who has inspired him to want to teach at the dojo when he's older. Before I signed up my 7 year old, my oldest would teach him all the forms he was learning. So when I finally signed up the 7 year old, he was ready! He wasn't really into athletics like my oldest but he has excelled in ways I never thought possible. They finally have something they are both good at and enjoy. Thank you TDS for all you do, I am forever grateful!

Huge fan of TDS...my son has been going for 1 1/2 years now and it amazes me how much confidence and self-esteem he has now. We were told by a friend that Martial Arts could help with this, but the team at TDS really makes this a priority. The changes he has made at home and school are amazing and I know they wouldn't have happened without this program. On top of this most important life skill...he is also learning Karate, earning his belts, and how to protect himself. This couldn't be more of a "Win, Win" situation. If you are looking for a great Karate School and one that will help your child become more confident...this is the place for you!

I have been here with my kids for almost two years. It has been amazing! We started out needing discipline and training and the staff at Dragon Star has been continually helpful. They went above and beyond to help us with our training and home schooling. They treat me and my children with up most respect and positivity. My kids can't wait to go and my youngest can't wait to get started. The Krav Maga class is challenging and fun as well.

Thank You Dragon Star Karate! You have made a huge impact in our son's life. We have noticed he has become more focused, confident, and disciplined. He absolutely loves participating and learning all the new moves. As his mother, I enjoy watching his enthusiasm and desire to continue to learn. He has joined other sports and activities; however, after a couple months he has gotten bored. He is going on over a year with Dragon Star Karate and he loves it. The instructors are kid friendly and driven to help the kids succeed.

We love the feel of Team Dragon Star Karate. It is a great family environment. They have classes for the whole family. The instructors are awesome and the kids respond well to the way they teach. Our son has been going there for about a year and he loves it! We would definitely recommend it to anyone!

Dragon Star Karate is a great place for the whole family. My daughter has been participating for just over a year now and you can see the difference in her with coordination, over all attitude, and they have helped her with using her voice and not being so shy to say hello to someone. The kickboxing classes were great for my wife and I as well.

Before my first Krav Maga class, I watched students walk into the room with no belts and students with yellow or orange belts. They belts looked pretty I wanted to have one made just specially for me. As I observed the students warming up and stretching, I noticed that everyone is a different ethnicity and most importantly the class was full of different ages. You’ve got a teenager taking the class with her 40 something year old father. Retired individuals. You’ve got a few young kids from their teens all the way to students that all in their late 50s and early 60s. Sounds scary but they had to have started somewhere just like everyone to matter what socioeconomic background you came from this Dojo does not discriminate anyone because of their size, gender, color and age. we are all treated the same from our instructors. The class itself was amazing. Now I was a runner a few years ago. I ate healthy, worked out 5-6 times a week, trained for half marathons that I did every few months. That was when I was certified as a personal trainer with the American Council on Exercise. I had all the advantages I could think out of. That was 1.5 years ago. I felt a little confident. It was quite a challenge for me since it's been months since the last time I ran around the block. My breathing was hard, sweat was coming down my face into my eyes but these was pains of awesomeness. We were pushed and I thought if these students can do it I can too. Johnny our head instructor introduced himself to me before class and reminded me that I know my own body and if I should stop (not quit) I could. During the class the students were encouraging and gave a lot of pep talk during moves we had to do. Great group of people.The first Krav Maga class you will ever take and it will last you a lifetime. When you walk in you will first see Ms. Rey. She will go through everything with you before you start class. She’s a young pretty lady with a resume of experience in Krav Maga. Our Master Doyle, the head of the Dojo. His experience dates back to 4 decades. He’s funny and generous. Then There is Sir. Johnny, the head instructor. He’s been doing this a long time also but not as old as Master Doyle. He’s a great head instructor. When I joined, he thought Level 1 class and he was our instructor for a few months. He will jump in to teach the class occasionally so be ready, in a good way and leads to our current instructor for the last few months. Sir George. George is a kind man that is also patient and wonderful with his students. He’s been a student of the Dojo for many years now and has the experience to assist us in our continued success. All these amazing instructors yell out encouragements that make Personal Trainers look like they are playing in Junior Varsity.Since I have been taken the Krav Maga and Krav Fit (similar to cardio kickboxing) classes, life has turned not for the better but given me back what I had lost when my volcano erupted. I was so happy again that my aura looked like dancing lights at a night nightclub being one with the music. Okay that was maybe a little too much. I am now a happy person filled with determination, motivation, commitment, respect, confidence (which is on cloud 9). It has been for a good while now), and all the great words I can't think of right now. Everytime I walk into the Dojo I get filled with what it has to offer. I smile genuinely in public now, I interact with more people than ever. I’ve met great new friends that only have kind and pure words coming from their heart. My sense of humor has completely made a permanent residence in my brain. Keep Calm, live, laugh, play, defend and protect HARD!

| started my daughter in the Dragon Kidz class about 6 months ago. From the onset the staff has been brilliant. The atmosphere is attentive and family oriented. Everyone is supportive and encouraging . I have personally seen the creed and motto carry over into other aspects of my daughters extracurricular and academic activities with increased focus and "Try my Best" attitude applied overall. After attending classes twice a week for 4 months, I decided to sign up myself for KUT..... Again, everyone is encouraging and motivating We couldn't be happier and I would not hesitate to recommend this Dojo to anyone and everyone

Started my 4 year old son here about 4 months ago and have seen some pretty great changes in him. Dragonstar has given him the opportunity to tap his potential as well as give his confidence a good bump! Its been a great experience and i expect that we'll be in it for the long run! Thanks to the staff at Dragonstar for all that you do!

The Team Dragon Star Martial Arts School is an Excellent school. Seh Sung Doyle and Sensei Johnny are excellent instructors and they ensure that everyone meets their goals. The staff is awesome. They have helped me meet my goals. I have not felt as fit as I do today in over 20 years. I’m more energetic, stronger, lost 10 lbs within10 weeks and overall I feel great. If you want to burn fat and lose inches and learn self defense, this is the place to be. It’s fun and the people are great to workout with. You can't go wrong. I’m motivated and addicted. Thank you Dragon Star Karate.

My kid was very nervous and angry .The school called us many times his teacher was telling us every time the same thing over and over again , that we need to do something so he can manage his anger . I was talking with many experts most of them said that best thing is to send him in marital arts school . So I was asking my friends where in our area can we find the best school. They recommend it Team Dragon Star as the best . After training for 3 months my son now is very calm he doesn’t make any problems at school . Now I also thing to take up krav mana class for me .. BEST MARITIAL ARTS SCHOOL IN ROSEVILLE 

My kids and I have been a part of Dragon Star Karate for 6 years. It has been a great place for the kids to learn about self discipline, respect and always trying to do their best! They have also both gained more confidence in themselves and that has transferred over into how they do in school. I also take classes at Dragon Star and due to the goals that I set for myself I lost 25 twenty five pounds and have kept it off for over 1 1/2 years now. I would recommend Dragon Star Karate for both kids and adults. Summer is a great time to try something new and learn some self defense and to stay active.

My daughter loves it here! The other kids in the class help her out and encourage each other. I love the fact that she has a place to go where the kids don't judge her on her performance like soccer and softball. In result her confidence is thru the roof! I owe it to Dragon Star.

The environment is high energy, positive, structured and lots of fun. Students receive the discipline and attention they need to reach their goals. It is a great place to get in shape and learn self defense. I have been there for about a month now and can already see the changes in my body and mind. I leave each class with more confidence than the last. i would recommend Dragon Star to all ages. Two Thumbs Way Way Up!

My daughter has been going for almost two years and still loves going to classes.She has never been a part of any other sport where she used the term "I Love going to classes" This has been such a great experience for her. The classes are very engaging and help with focus and self discipline. All levels are welcomed. The staff and students are so supportive and generous with their time. This has been the best experience for her on all levels. Thank you!

Started out taking Krav Maga here and was very nervous. The Instructors, staff and other students are amazing! They all made me feel right at home. The main Instructor, Doyle, told my every day that "I can do this!" I lost 6 lbs my first month, only 2 lbs my 2nd. But after 5 months my clothes are really lose now and I feel great! 3 months ago I started my 5 year old Daughter in the Little Dragons classes and she wouldn't even get on the mat. Sensei Johnny never gave up on her and after 3 classes she finally went on the floor with him. Now she never wants to leave! We love this place!

My 4 year old has a blast going here. She teaches us things she learned and is excited to practice with us at home. It has taught her discipline, self-confidence, and she has fun doing it. The instructors are all friendly.

Probably one of the best martial arts kids programs that can be found. Outstanding staff, excellent facility, Did I mention that the staff is outstanding. Sadly, the staff is often occupied in teaching and running the business, they don't have an email address, nor a voice mail, so if you have to try and take care of something, so not good.

Dragon Star (now K3) is a very interesting Karate place. During my time there I enjoyed a lot of the structure and exercise I got from there. However, the karate itself is clouded by many of the people who attended there. Many kids were disrespectful and clique. Also many of the instructors were biased and unprofessional. It was evident many of them were there for money at times. There are many great things there, but unfrotunately people and money constantly get in the way.

Pretty disappointed getting to my sons first class, we had arrived 5 minutes early like the packet stated. To be told that we had to arrive 10 minutes early and to rescheduled for a different day. Left with a sad toddler who didn’t understand why he couldn’t try karate for the first time, and a wasted 30 min drive. Very inconsiderate by not explaining instructions properly.

This Place Sux as a Business they do not take care of their Clients. they are Dishonest and the Lie about teaching the Kids real values in Life. I will not recommend this Place to anyone. Do not get your Child in this Karate School the are not Honest about their Membership Dues and they will Take your Hard working Money and they will run away with your money. Believe me You ask around this place is not what they are. if you want to loose your money this a place to do it. Sensei are Liars and will avoid any Issues Members have regarding their Membership.

"Sensei" Johny shows a complete lack of respect to parents and students alike. He made my son cry in our third week of our trial period! There are no obvious lesson plans or progression of skills. Promotions are given to all students without being earned. Lessons are inconsistent. If this were a cheap Parks and Rec program I'd be happy enough, but it's not. We went to KOVAR'S and we're so thrilled!!!
