I was totally surprised when I first entered this magnificent martial arts school. It was bigger than I thought and I couldn't ask for a more pleasant experience for my first visit. The staff was very courteous and friendly and gave my family and I a tour of this multiple room facility where children can take classes at the same time as adults in separate rooms. Their introductory program (free) was a godsend for us because we didn't know anything about what they had to offer or what we would be doing if we joined. To make a long story short, it was a lot of fun for all of us and American Karate Studios has another family now! We love it! My children have gained valuable self-discipline skills, more confidence, and personal protection methods. We enjoy the workouts (easy at first and then they progressively get more demanding as we got into better shape and condition) and it's fun learning self-defense skills that will last our lifetime. I recommend AKS to everyone!
