Welcome to America's Best Pooler Karate, where every class is a journey toward personal excellence and growth.
We stopped in to sign up for classes, we were in and out within 15-20 minutes, toddler friendly enrollment process! Staff was super friendly, facility was very clean, and the kids looked like they were having a blast learning!! My child is really excited to get started with lessons!
Posted 11 months agoI highly recommend anyone who's looking for a place to take their child to have fun, build confidence, this is the place. The instructors are top level, very patient and very knowledgeable. Best decision I've made regarding my child.
Posted 1 year agoMy son has been attending Pooler Karate firc3 years, and the growth I've seen in him—both on and off the mat—has been incredible. The instructors are not only skilled martial artists but also amazing mentors. They teach discipline, confidence, respect, and perseverance in a way that really connects with the kids. The environment is welcoming, safe, and focused on positive development. My son looks forward to every class and always leaves feeling proud of what he’s learned. I truly appreciate how the coaches take time to work with each child individually while building strong team spirit. If you're looking for a jiu jitsu school that values character as much as technique, I highly recommend Pooler Karate!
Posted 1 year agoMy grandson absolutely loves attending Pooler Karate. From the moment we walked in, it felt like more than just a martial arts studio—it’s a vibrant community. The instructors are deeply supportive, helping students not only master techniques but also build confidence and discipline in every class. We’ve watched him grow so much—gaining focus, respect, and enthusiasm for learning. It truly feels like a family where every student is encouraged to succeed. If you’re looking for a place that fosters physical skill and character development, Pooler Karate is an outstanding choice.
Posted 1 year agoWe have been taking our daughter to pooler karate since she was 2, and she is about to turn 5. She did 6he Lil ninjas program and has moved over to the little rollers program. She is a big fan of it all. She loves her teachers and everything about this program. We love watching her grow here.
Posted 1 year agoI enrolled my 3-year-old in jujitsu class, and it has been an amazing experience! The instructors are patient, fun, and great with kids, making sure each child feels comfortable while learning. The lessons focus on basic movements, coordination, and discipline, all in a playful and engaging way.
We are having a wonderful experience. Place is extra loving and accepting of special needs kids. Love the bibles and verses of encouragement. Love the generosity and compassion of the staff. We are glad to be on the journey and just beginning.
I love the yoga class!! The instructor is VERY knowledgeable , and understanding .Everyone at the facility is very accommodating and kind
A great Dojo that my daughter loves to go to. The instructors are friendly and really push the kids to do their best. Would highly recommend going
Pooler karate is a great place to train. Everyone is very nice and helpful. I have enjoyed my time here and plan to spend many more days here if God is willing.
My boys have been enjoying their time at this place. The organization and listening skills they have been developing are fusing into their regular learning days at home and school. Techniques learnt are also boosting their confidence on a daily basis.
Excellent place and staff. My daughter loves it and says she feels so excited to attend Pooler Karate. We are grateful to Carson
Awesome staff, great with the kids ☺️Money well spent
My 5 year old son has been with Pooler Kararte in the Lil Ninjas group since September and it’s been the best thing for him. They are very professional and knowledgable of techiques.
Pooler Karate is not only a great martial arts school, but also a community-minded and family-oriented organization that focuses on helping kids build their confidence while learning positive character traits. It's a good mix of learning, is a great way for the kids to build their strength and endurance and it's fun for all ages. What they're doing with their Special Kicks program is also really remarkable! Highly recommend.
Awesome friendly helpful fun lots of activities Jenna loves Pooler Karate Special Kicks we are thankful
My kids have been attending Pooler Karate for the past year, and we couldn’t be happier! The instructors are skilled, patient, and great with kids, balancing discipline and fun perfectly. We’ve seen a huge boost in confidence, focus, and respect in our children. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a top-notch Karate program!
So happy to have found Pooler Karate, ever since starting my son’s confidence, listening and overall discipline has improved drastically. He loves coming and earning stripes and new belts!
If you’re looking for a place to practice Arts the RIGHT way , this is the place to be . Coaches are nothing but love , have extreme patience and takes the time out to teach you the CORRECT techniques in ALL programs .. Happy to be apart of this team and You would say the same once you put your foot through those doors .
Pooler Karate has an beautiful facility with an incredible Mat for the athletes to practice. They have very high skilled coaches who are also very kind. But, the best part is how they handle the kids with special needs. I watched them training and I was surprised with how dedicated they are in training those kids. They make the difference in the area. They are very professional and I recommend them.
Our kids absolutely love the jiu jitsu program here! The instructors genuinely care about their students, gym is super clean, and their programs run year round. Highly recommend!
Awesome place! My son loves it!!!
My family loves the lil ninjas class. It’s a perfect class for our 4 year old to learn discipline and self control! Highly recommend! Can’t wait until our youngest turns two years old to join as well
Me encanta como trabajan con los niños,vengo de un país que gusta mucho el deporte,espero sigan avanzando para que tengan grandes atletas en un futuro.🥰
I must say this an impressive martial arts school as it has knowledgeable instructors, an effective system to rank up; good training, an outstanding culture and great events! Our son has already achieved his black belt and he still continues to train with other students and assist when called upon. We're proud to be a part of PK!
All 3 of my children have been at Pooler Karate for years. Master Carson is wonderful and welcoming to all his students.
Fantastic people and fantastic facility!
This place is really amazing! My son has been attending here for almost two years. Even though he didn't speak English well at first, they guided him wonderfully, and all the staff are very caring and kind while also being strict in their teaching. My son really enjoyed coming here. It's such a pity that our family is moving to another place, and he won't be able to earn his black belt. I believe he has improved a lot in manners, respect, and focus training thanks to this place. I'm sad that he can't continue here, but I want to express my gratitude to everyone for helping my son grow so much!
Everyone here is amazing; so kind, patient, knowledgeable, and helpful. My son is 5 and loves going to lil’ rollers every week. It’s already taught him more respect and discipline in the month or so we have been going.
I am amazed every time I go to Pooler Karate! Everyone is welcome to come try out a class and will feel included in any type of martial arts they choose! It is an amazing group of people from students to instructors!!!!!
Nice facility. Great place for kids or to get in shape.
Great gym, well equipped, classes are structured and theirs a variety of classes to practice different disciplines. Great people train here and that’s what really makes a gym special, awesome atmosphere. Come check it out.
Great atmosphere for all age groups!
Friendly, caring atmosphere, good people, great instructors, much love and respect
Grandson ♥️ it. Instructors take the time for him to learn high functioning autism. Very impressed with the program and his progress
A Great Dojo. I love it here. If you want a challenge in your life; if you want to feel like you achieved something, then come down to pooler Karate and take a class... its intense. I gaunrantee you will sweat, feel good pain, build camaraderie and grow... this place is amazing for your mental, physical, and spiritual health...unlock the warrior within... come to class with a open mind and the willingness to walk this marathon... Every man, woman, and child should have a discipline. Especially now in these crazy times... martial arts is a great hobby, a great habit... give this to yourself, invest in yourself... come and join the community. Peace and blessings to all.
We enrolled our boys in Karate back in Late February 2024 and Since then, they have grown more confident, are displaying strong leadership characteristics, listening skills and self discipline. We are proud of them for all of their achievements and wish to thank all Instructors and staff for all the patience they have and hard work they do teaching our young ones.
This is family! Both of my children are absolutely inlove with this program! Thur can't wait to come to classes. I've seen such improvements on them both physically and mentally and emotionally! I highly recommend these programs. All kids in my opinion should have martial arts!
I'm very excited to have my son join Pooler Karate! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The instructors were very good with the kids. They ate teaching great values and skills. There is a lot of one on one instruction, which I love!
My now 11 year old son has been doing Karate for 3 1/2 years and is now a Black Belt. Over the years I have seen my son grow into a better and more matured individual. He is a far better person for the life skills that he has learned from Pooler Karate and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Pooler Karate. They are AWESOME...
My grandson enjoys the training and looks forward to coming.
Pooler karate has been great for my 2 year old. They have multiple instructors per session, she get distracted easily and they do a great job keeping her engaged.
Very cool place for young boys to learn discipline and structure.
Great place! The coaches and staff do a fantastic job. My son looks forward to jiu-jitsu every week and has made a few friends.
Coming here is the highlight of not only my two sons, but my week as well. Each Coach does an amazing job at providing a safe space and outlet for my sons all while learning fundamentals of jiu jitsu, respect, discipline, and integrity! These coaches have the patience of angels and they’re so fun! I have a blast just watching them interact with the children. If you’re second guessing, wondering or even just considering, this is your sign to take the step and do it. They do a great job at pulling the child’s attention with interactive games that ultimately each have a lesson in them. I recommend every parent to Pooler karate! Being a single mother, the coaches have became my “im going to tell Coach Todd” outlet for them to tighten up! They know just how to have fun all while maintaining their respectable status! You can tell just within a few minutes of interacting with each coach they’re respectable and amazing people!!
Both of my boys has been going here for a few months now and we love it!!!! They’re so wonderful with the children and all of the staff are so kind and helpful. We will be there for years to come. After they complete Karate, I’ll be switching them over to Jiu Jitsu. I just love it!!!!!
Signed my four year old grandson and I’m so impressed. It’s a large, clean, well designed facility; but it’s the staff that are amazing. The patience and understanding they displayed with the children was just impressive. I’ve almost got myself convinced to join myself
This is a great place for kids to build their self-esteem and confidence. My son really enjoys going here. We're great full of stuff and instructor.
Our 5 yr has just completed the Lil Rollers program! The staff have so patient in his growth to succeed in every way. We could not have chosen a better facility to train and we look forward to his next step.
My daughter is doing a great job in her little ninjas class. She has improved on a lot of skills during the past 3 months. I am excited to see what the future holds!
My son really enjoys this place! Great and friendly staff. He’s learning a lot.
Pooler karate is amazing. My son has improved a lot
Great environment. Staff is great with the kids. On day one my son absolutely wa thrilled and enjoyed it very much. I have seen so much improvement in just a year. His self control and confidence has increased tremendously.
I have only been going to Pooler Karate for a month now and I have found it to be an excellent place to train and learn martial arts. I plan to be a student there for a long time to come
This place has helped my kiddo become more independent, strong minded, and well behaved. The discipline and patience the instructors have is truly amazing! Definitely the best martial arts school in Georgia.
Amazing experience for kids!
My daughter loves her classes. This has been a fantastic place for her to learn about her body and discipline.
Love love love them!!!
Awesome place for me and the kids.
My son has been going here for two years. He almost has his black belt and he loves it. He plans on continuing on to jujutsu and furthering his karate career. All the instructors are very kind and caring and they push all the kids to be the best they can be.
Pooler Karate has changed my life. I joined 9 months ago and the best part is being able to train alongside my son. It has helped me mentally and physically and opened up a new world of martial arts for me.
My son absolutely loves it here! The staff is amazing and works with the younger kids very well. I give them a 10 out of 10
We love this place! They are so good with the kids. My son is in the Lil Ninjas class. He didn’t like it at first, but they were so patient and kind with him. Now he loves it, and he has learned so much!
This will be my little ones last month here unfortunately but I have nothing but nice things to say. Everyone is so warm and welcoming and helpful. We started when she was 2 years old and wanted nothing to do with karate haha and now she’s 4 and almost a black belt in lil ninjas. Thank you all for helping her out! Especially Ms AJ :)
My child is in the Lil’ Ninjas class. This has been a great experience so far with working on self control and how to introduce kids into the world of martial arts. The instructors accomplish a lot in the 30 minute sessions with the children and typically keep the kids entertained. I appreciate the efforts towards discipline and watching the kids earn stripes and belts. It is a good lesson to achieving their goals. A little more on the spot corrections for the kids would be beneficial.
My son loves the Lil ninja classes! It really built his confidence and discipline. Definitely recommend! The instructors are amazing and the classes are fun for the kids.
Pooler Karate has been fantastic for our 3 year old. Their dedication to teaching kids of all ages with an enthusiastic approach has been much appreciated. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a structured activity for their kids.
We have loved being part of the Pooler Karate family! Everyone is incredibly nice and helpful and great with the kids. My son looks forward to going every week! We can’t wait to see how far he goes!
I love the instructors and the way they teach this place has become like a second home.
Pooler Karate is well organized, fun, and an engaging learning experience for our 4 year old! She loves going to class and I love the skill set she is learning. Great Job Pooler Karate!
Update!!! It's been 2 awesone years of my son doing Jiu-jitsu and again guys. Come sign up!!! You won't regret it, his self control and perseverance has increased so much. He's gonna go far if he keeps it up. My son has been doing Jiu jitsu for over a year. He has definitely improved in regards to self esteem, perseverance and continuing to learn respect for rules. I would recommend you bring any child here they have a program for you. Special Kicks for persons with disabilities is really awesome. Come on down, sign up it's a great program.
We started our soon to be 4 year old boy and our 6 year old daughter in JJ. They have only been attending for a couple of months and not only have they progressed in JJ, they also in their character thanks to all their coaches. Highly recommend the JJ.
We’ve seen dramatic improvements in self-control and confidence in our child. The coaches are specialized in working with kids of all ages and they are great at what they do. Our son looks forward to every BJJ session and so do we.
My son has been attending Pooler Karate for Jiu Jitsu, and he absolutely loves it! The staff is incredibly nice and always willing to help whenever we need assistance. It's clear that they genuinely care about the kids and their progress. I also appreciate that they offer kids the chance to try out the classes before making any financial commitment. This gave us peace of mind and ensured that my son was truly interested. Overall, it's a fantastic environment, and I highly recommend it to any parent considering martial arts for their child.
10 out of 10! Highly recommend. From day 1 to yellow belt testing they have helped my daughter in every way. Confidence, respect, perseverance and self control has all increased and goes over into school also.
They are very good and professional, but they should add more time for practice.
I love this place. My daughter is in tumbling class and she loves it. The teachers have a lot of patient and dedicated with the children.
They've done an amazing job building his confidence and listening skills in such a short time. Each week they have something new for the kids to try. The coaches are excellent and take time to work with each kid to give them the attention they need.
We have loved our experience at Pooler Karate. Our son participates in the Special Kicks program and he absolutely loves it! The staff is so good with him and works so hard to meet his specific needs! Our daughter participates in little tumblers and cheer and loves it!
I love the positive influence all the instructors have on our boys. Pooler karate is by far the best thing that could have ever happen to the children who attend classes.
This place is awesome 100% recommend to go
"Fantastic karate studio! The instructors are skilled, patient, and great with students of all ages. The classes are engaging and fun, with a strong focus on discipline and respect. I've seen tremendous growth in my confidence and physical fitness. Highly recommend to anyone looking to learn martial arts in a supportive environment!"
If you want to be the best you have to learn from the best and this is the place. Look no further the chief instructor Joseph will guide you on your path to excellence. Place is amazing, clean, welcoming, staff is attentive and courteous. Highly recommended this place!
My son attends pooler karate. When he started was just a little boy and they have helped him to have self confidence, and self control. The owner and staff are great people, and the facility is very clean and orderly.
My son absolutely love pooler karate! He has had such a wonderful time here & the teachers are great with the kids. No other place compares! You won't regret coming here.
Pooler Karate is a great place for all. My son has thoroughly enjoyed his time in lil ninjas. The instructors and owners are all wonderful. Definitely a place to check out for martial arts!
My daughter has gained so much confidence since joining and really enjoys coming to class. She has been very good about practicing at home and we have been so impressed by her progress and love her coaches!
I love this place and my son Maxton loves it as well... Maxton learns alot from the instructors.. I love how the instructors are very patient and they love the children very much
Pooler Karate has been such a wonderful after school program for my kiddos! I have my son and twin girls and they absolutely love working with everyone there! My family especially loves Miss AJ who is so tremendously patient and kind and stern in her lessons! My kids truly hold respect for her and so do I as she was patient and understanding and really tried working with my twin girl who is autistic and non verbal. Miss AJ is such a tremendous instructor and doesn’t look down on any student. She teaches and works with everyone the same which I truly loved experiencing as no one has ever treated my autistic daughter with that level of kindness and respect before. Thank you miss AJ for everything! And Thank you to Pooler Karate for being such a wonderful establishment!
Amazing instructors! They do a great job keeping thr kids engaged. The boys look forward to coming to k Pooler Karate and working towards the next level.
Master Carson and his crew are such an awesome group of people! My son has gained so much knowledge, discipline, and confidence in himself by joining Pooler Karate. We love Chappy, AJ, Heather, Xavier, and Migel!! Can not recommend them enough!
My son loves coming here. It's something he looks forward to every week. They work so well with the children both individually and as a whole class.
I wanted to get my son into some form of martial arts for structure and discipline. Unlike other places we have gone before here they really focus on structure and ensuring the kids aren't distracted by their parents but are focused on the task at hand. They really focus on instilling the basics and getting the kids to learn the discipline, respect and manners. So far I'm impressed and my little one enjoys coming here that we signed him up for the year! If you're looking for a martial arts place regardless of age, look no further this place is the real deal.
We signed Knox up after the free week of classes and he’s loved it ever since! He was 2 at the time. They teach more than just karate and instill traits that are crucial to child development! They were patient with him when he cried the first week, but a couple months in he’s already an orange striped belt and testing soon for his blue stripe! Everything is earned here and not given! I couldn't recommend them enough!
Pooler Karate has been a fantastic place for my son to grow and thrive. His self-development has been significantly influenced by the school, showing exponential leaps in his confidence and self-awareness. The school has a safe and family-oriented environment to allow your little ones to develop life skills to help your child take on whatever life brings them. The staff is energetic, playful, and respectful. They are intuitive to your kid's needs and bring an uplifting commodity to the mat. I am happy my son is part of this team, and I have personally seen the effect Pooler Karate has on my son. Thank you!
My boys have been going pooler karate for about a year. One in karate (10) the other bjj (5). The classes are fun and informative the instructors are motivating. Seeing the progress in my boys not just on the mat but outside also. The confidence that has been built here is amazing. The environment fosters a positive energy.
My kid started here few months back and he loves it here. The staff here is wonderful and friendly and they also have lot of patience with kids. Class has helped him in building confidence and has also helped him with his focus and confidence. I would highly recommend…
The boys love Mrs Kelly and the other instructors for BJJ. They are really great with the kids. The facility is the nicest in the area and tons of kids come here to train. We highly recommend the center.
This place has been hands down amazing. The facility has so many different types of tools to train with and my son absolutely loves going. His instructor miss AJ works so naturally with all the kids and ensures they all stay focused whichbis great since the kids age ranges vary from small to bigger kids. All the fellow instructor work had and jeep everyone I gaged as well. Master Carson is very present and friendly as well as master chappy this guy is top notch and absolutely deserves a raise haha this guy motivates the kids and interacts with the parents in such a positive manner. Overall if your looking for a great place definitely the place for you.
I love Pooler Karate!! Amazing instructors and staff here, very welcoming to everyone. I love training here, the classes are energy filled and encouraging
So far so good! 😁 Kids love it! We took off most of the summer because of vacation. Now that we’re back it has been a blessing! The concepts of self-control and discipline taught during class has shown through at home. 10/10 recommend Pooler Karate. Fix the QR code!
My son attends Pooler Karate, he has had a good experience here with learning self defense skills. They offer 1 on 1 training and small group training. This is helpful because everyone learns differently. The staff is very helpful and full of energy. This is a place for the entire family.
We have loved being a part of the little ninjas program! I think this class does a good job of keeping the kids focused and engaged while also teaching them basic skills that are easy and fun for them to remember.
My daughter has learn so much here and enjoys coming each Saturday. Had to come and edit my review. Although my daughter loves the coaches in her tumbling class. We won’t be returning after this season/session. The owner definitely left a bad taste in my mouth this morning. The tone of voice and delivery was uncalled for. Also by law if there aren’t any two, Size posted at entry and exit of a private property, you cannot lawfully tow anybody’s vehicle.
