Takahashi Karate Dojo

Dec 2017

I was looking for a traditional karate school for my 7 year old son. Having trained in another style for many years - many years ago - I visited several schools across Westchester county observing classes until I found the right dojo. Excellent teaching from experts in Shotokan, attention to detail, good discipline but not overdone for kids, and a warm, passionate base of fellow students. After 23 years of not practicing karate, and despite a longer drive to Mt. Kisco for us, I not only enrolled my son but joined him as a fellow student in 2016. Can't say enough good things about Takahashi Karate, Sensei and the black belts who support the dojo.
