I wasnt surprised at how clean and organized it was for reopening. Very well done, thank you for all you do for your members and community.

Shunato is a special place. It is extremely caring and family environment. No matter what your age you will grow and learn about yourself in a fun way from all ages. I am 40 and growing fast.Brad

I really couldnt have hoped to find a better dojo for my children to learn in! Friendly, family like environment with amazing teachers and assistants! I not only credit shunato with my childrens increased knowledge of karate, but also for an increase in maturity and respect. I couldnt be happier!

Came here to ask for information regarding their program.I dealt with Sensei Kato John Pegagine and Mss. Tina, They both treated me very politely and professionally. Made me feel very welcome!I was not able to sign up for classes due a conflict with my schedule, but I really endorse a great service when I receive it.Kudos to this school

I took my first kickboxing class February 8, 2014. I had known Sensei Kato for years and knew I was in good hands, but I was extremely nervous walking in. Ive always been accident prone and clumsy, and kickboxing sounded dangerous. The warm and friendly greeting I received when I walked in quickly relieved my anxiety. I made it only 20 minutes through the 45 minute class. It was hard, and I hadnt brought my water bottle. I sat and talked with Tina while I re-hydrated and signed up for a monthly membership. I felt like Id been hiking in the Sahara, and I wanted to do it again, and again, and again. It was so much fun!May 9, 2015 I completed the Spartan Race Citifield Sprint as a member of Team Shunato, something I never dreamed Id ever be able to do, and would not have been able to without the constant love and support from the entire Shunato family.I celebrated my 2 year anniversary with Shunato by doing a 5K Run for the Wild at the Bronx Zoo sponsored by Shunato Karate.Shunato is more than just another dojo. Yes, youll learn karate, kickboxing, self-defense, and yoga in a safe family friendly environment, and youll have improved focus, concentration, balance, and confidence. Youll sweat from EVERY part of your body, and you wont be able to remember a time when your muscles werent sore. Youll slim down and tone up. Youll have more fun doing it than you can imagine. The best part? The people. It is truly a family, inside and outside of the dojo. You are accepted and loved for who you are, encouraged and supported for who you want to become. It is a life changing experience you wont find anywhere else.
