Martial Arts Schools in Bethesda

“We love Kicks Karate Bethesda! The teachers are nothing short of fantastic (kind, caring, funny and flexible!), and they make every class educational and fun. Our son is part of the Tiny Tigers program, and Mr. David and Mr. Brian are absolute professionals when it comes to commanding the attention of preschoolers (which is no easy feat). We also appreciate that the administrative staff is responsive and offers great answers/solutions to any questions we have. The best review is that our son asks every day if we're going to karate...and that says it all!“

“Our kids are almost 4 and 6, and we have been going to Kicks since they were 3. They absolutely love it and have learned so much about self- control, both physically and in controlling their impulses. Mr. Josh is particularly amazing with the kids— he holds them to high standards while fostering an environment of joy and support, with endless energy and patience. He is remarkable. The whole place is extremely organized and well- run as well, and the owner herself is always easily accessible if you have any questions. Highly recommend!“

“Bethesda Martial Arts school is outstanding. The instructors are professional, encouraging, and great with students of all ages. The environment is positive and respectful, and the training is top-notch. Highly recommended!“

“One of the true traditional Okinawan martial arts forms. Not sport karate. There are plenty of very qualified knowledgeable instructors for adults and kids! I've been to others, and I would not go anywhere else! This is the real deal for self-defense!“
