My son has been going to Altamonte karate academy for five years, both after school and over the summer. I love it and he’s loves it. The staff is amazing, they care and invest themselves into this place. They teach discipline and amazing technique. They’re very attentive to the children who go there and don’t just hand out belts for time spent but true effort and hard work. I absolutely love this place and would suggest it to anyone who lives or works in the area.

Affordable for summer, after school, and evening classes. Great environment for learning discipline, manners, respect, and a traditional art. HIGHLY recommend for anyone looking for any of the listed for themselves or their children.

My son has attended this wonderful school since he was 4 years old and is now 10 . The staff are professional and care about every students well-being as if they are their own children. Elijah has grown tremendously due to his training and discipline. I could not have asked for a better, safe and organized school for my son. Denise White

Place is great. They really run a tight ship. My son has changed w in a week.

Owner Chris and his crew are Great! Our son has been training with them for almost 4 years in their afterschool program and they have done an amazing job. Their Covid protocol is strong and has been implemented perfectly. Their cost is comparable with other local outfits, but gets you much better training in a small family environment.

I used to come every weekday after school but there are many great things to do there so I give this place more stars than I can in my head it takes a while at first to get used to the blocks, kicks, punches, and sparring at first but you eventually get used to it.

Great prices and policies -- if your child is sick and misses a couple days you dont pay for the time they arent there. Instructors are great and the owners are fantastic. They genuinely care about the kids and make them actually earn their promotions to the next belt, they arent just handed to them because theyve been there x amount of time or attended so many classes. An overall excellent program!

My son went this summer for camp and was bullied. I spoke to an instructor and he basically ignore my concern. He then told me I would get a call from the manager never did. My friend that I referred also called about her son and same situation. Since then I’ve heard more negative feedback not a positive environment for kids!

Excellent after school program that helps kids build confidence and learn self discipline

Two of my children attend this karate academy after school. You really cant beat the price and quality. Some of the best people all around work here. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. If you are looking for a place for your kids to go after school where they can have a little fun and learn something at the same time this is the place to go.

We are very happy to have our kids cared for and trained at Altamonte American Karate. They excel at what they do for a very reasonable price, plus every once in a while they offer Ninja Nights so parents can have a night out (also for a very reasonable price). Thank you for being a part of Altamonte Springs!

American Karate is an amazing school that is ALL about teaching their students hard work, structure, and motivating them to focus. They allow the children to earn what levels they feel confident enough to test for without pressure. The owners and staff are absolutely remarkable, they have literally made my son feel so welcomed, cared for, and cared about. Not only would I recommend this school I would rate them 10 stars if possible.-From an overprotective mother

One of the best. Good rates, friendly, knowledgeable instructors who are great with kids and encouraging them really earn their belts. Big dojo with lots of open floor space.

My kids joined AKA over 2 years ago, after we got tired of the crappy after school program they had in their school.Kids not only learn karate and self-defense, they also learn discipline, good manners, and self-confidence. Also they are rewarded for good grades in school and for completing chores at home.The senseis are great, even though they have a lot of children, they all know them by name, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and work with them to help them do and be their best. I also love that they allow advanced children to help teach the beginners; this provides them a good sense of pride and helps them strive to be better.The owners Mr. and Mrs. King are wonderful people, they know the kids by name and they always have a smile for the parents; yes they are tough and disciplinarian, but that helps raising our children to be better people and better members of society.As a working parent, I worry about what my children are doing after school. I wanted a place where they will be safe, where they would learn, exercise and learn to be better people. American Karate Academy has provided that for us.Last wonderful thing, they are open those “student holiday” days that school has, I don’t have to worry about taking the day off, because my children have a place to go.I cannot recommend this place enough!

My son has been in Altamonte Karate for three months. He has become so confident and proud of himself. Teachers here really want to teach and your expected to really know the material to move on. Mrs.King has been amazing and has worked with my son which is also the owner of the school. That absolutely have a great program I recommend them to anyone.

My children and I love Altamonte Karate Academy. All they had known prior to this was daycare life where they ran around like wild animals. Once my children started attending Karate School (and, it is a school) they are learning self discipline, responsibility, respect and are gaining a higher sense of self worth. If you are looking for a place that will help grow and develop your child into being the best they can be then this is your place. I could not be more pleased. They also have the best summer program in the county with weekly swimming and field trips. Dump your daycare and enroll them in Altamonte Karate Academy.

The instructors are nice around parents but very unpleasant around kids and treat our stuff with no care, If our back pack falls on the ground in the locker room and they see it and they drop it on the floor in front of everyone and humiliate them, yes they do teach discipline but not the instructors they are lazy and are always on their phone they don’t even teach the higher belts and they do no exercise I don’t recommend this place but if your kids want to be humiliated and cry after an instructor yells at them for not saying “yes mam” or “yes sir” go ahead

My Granddaughter joined AKA about a year ago and I couldnt be more satisfied with them, previously she was going to browns gymnastics and the difference is night and day, first your kid will be learning not only Karate but family values and manners which will help them for life. The owners( Mr and Mrs King) are amazing people so are the instructors, well not much to ad the place is just perfect, again, your kid will get the best you can hope for.Add to list Edit

Hands down the best structured summer program. Skating rink, pool, arcades, movies. My son is learning discipline and respect along with self confidence. In the old day care he was in every day I had to sign an incident report. The first two days I picked him up from here he kept asking if he was in trouble because he was traumatized from the day care. Its such a relief to pick him up and to know that he had a great day. I would recommend this karate school to everyone.

Great place. Very great environment. Great staff as well. I highly recommend this camp..

Best karate school in town very good teachers and owners are great my son loves it here

Love this place, its the best💛💙❤️💚

I love this place
