Yamashita Karate Studio

My son has been attending classes for months now and we have been very happy. Family run, professional and respectful people. Everyone is always greeted personally and children are taught respect. There is a stripe system for promotions however promotions are also evaluated based on students exhibited behavior and ability as far as I can tell. As behavior is a part of the training, ie being focused, being respectful, following instruction, etc. My 6 year old LOVES attending these classes.

Great place for children to learn self discipline and what it means to work hard to be successful. Wonderful instructors who show they really care. 🤙

My daughter has been a part of this karate studio for about 7 months now. At first we loved it, but than the main Instructors were never there to teach the class; It was left in the hands of their teenage son. The son, and older Sensei were constantly late for the class, which in turn cut the class time short. I pay good money to this studio, and feel cheated. I am also being cheated out of 2 weeks of studio time. I paid for a whole month, and was informed the 17th would be our last day. What about the last 2 weeks? After all this I have a disappointed daughter, because they will not let my daughter test for her yellow belt (she has been qualified to do so for more than 2 weeks-stripe system- instructors not there to take notice). They just let the other girl test for her yellow belt on a random date. Why does my daughter have to wait for a specific date, preferably on a date after the contracts up. I feel discriminated against, and I feel terribly disappointed in a place that teaches children to respect others, and treat everyone the same. Parents please do your research well. There are many other studios in the area.
