Do I need any experience? Absolutely not! Beginners are welcome! You do not need any previous martial arts experience. Most students have never had any martial arts training, and if they have, it was years ago. Age isn't a factor, Goju Ryu Karate focus very much on your breathing, coordination with the movements.

What is a dojo
Report
Your dojo should be considered your personal sacred place in which to work out and train. Its positive atmosphere is created from the beginning of class during the dojo reishiki. Karatedo is but a part of your education received in the dojo.
In the dojo you will learn the principles of many other styles, so much that many times when speaking to Martial Artists of other schools you may know more of their history and forms similar to and of their style than they do.

Testimonials
Report
I never think of age as a factor I believe you are as young or as old as your mind tells your body. Yes as more time passes we will do things in moderation however I have found that karate has been a great benefit in keeping me fit. Sanjit is a motivated, supportive and competent instructor. He knows how to diversify the training based on the technical and physical abilities of his students.
Youth Program
Report
After local parents have been inquiring about a kids program, we listened and started a new 6+ program. This is the beginning of something new for the award-winning dojo. How can karate help the entire family? Thanks to Sensei who made her comfortable in her first class and she quickly started to adapt new styles.
