Builds physical and mental confidence

I love this Dojo! The instructors are knowledgeable, patient and encouraging to all students. I feel very fortunate to be in the happy circumstance of being in the vicinity of such an excellent Karate school when I was looking for a place for my son. He absolutely loves it and I could not have asked for better. My father who studied Martial arts for over 40 years watched the instruction and students one time and gave Shihan Jenny the highest praise I have ever heard pass his lips. If you are looking for the best, look no further.
Love the atmosphere here, my son and I are both apart of the family/students and the instructors from our Shihan all the way down to leaders in the class are fantastic; patient with people but also pushes at the same time to make you better mind and body. Excited for more classes with so much to learn. Great way to also teach kids focus, respect, and confidence in themselves and leading others (adults too).
Shihan Jenny and her team of instructors help you dig deep to bring out your personal best, no matter your age. My daughter has been taking classes for 3 years and I've been there just over a year, our balance, coordination, health and confidence have improved dramatically. Karate is a great way to stay fit, and Championship Martial Arts, Cary is the best place for it!
