    I spent about eight years training with Traditional Karate Academy. Their instructors are excellent and provide kind, detailed, personal instruction while challenging you to grow in your practice and your character. The atmosphere within the school is one of camaraderie, making it even more fun to train. Whether you are looking for a physical competitive challenge, character development, or some self-defense training, this is the place to go. I would recommend this dojo for children and adults alike.

    My child has been attending TKA for three years now. The instruction that is given goes well beyond the traditional kata moves and techniques. They are also instilling character into the students and encouraging excellence beyond what happens in the dojo. We were looking for training in self-defense,but found more. This is actually the rare gem we didn't know we were looking for when we sought out instruction. We could not be more pleased with the lifelong lessons our family is learning!
