My daughter begged me for karate classes and I was so happy to learn Takahashi was a traditional dojo with a flexible schedule. I knew it was a great fit before my daughter even finished her test class. Sensei Takahashi and Sensei Lisa are both wonderful with the kids. They strike the right balance between firm boundaries and a lighthearted manner, ensuring the kids are staying on task while also having fun. Takahashi Dojo is a very welcoming environment and a great place to learn both the physical and mental elements of karate. Highly recommend.

Now our 5-year-old daughter is attending too. We highly recommend it!
