Master P is amazing with the kids. He is very knowledgeable and knows exactly how to teach his students. The karate school feels more like a family than an institution.
My daughter has been learning so much and is so proud of her own progress. She complained about going to dance weekly but asks to take multiple classes of karate each week!!!
Great instructor. Very knowledgeable
My son has been studying at Pereira’s Academy of Karate for the past 3 months. It was a struggle to find a sport that he was interested as he always felt he had to be perfect or he’d let his coach down. Master Pereira has been incredible in helping build Bobby’s self confidence. Bobby loves going to class and learning new techniques.
