Wolchek Martial Arts has such a wide range of skills and classes to offer throughout the age ranges. And equal care, attention and focus is given to everyone at every level. There isnt a tuition contract and there are month to month payment options so you do not feel locked in, or otherwise under financial stress for your child to go to classes. We have been here for over 6years and my kids have gained so much confidence, skills, memory etc etc. Wolchek has added so much to our lives.

Excellent, well rounded, martial arts program! The teachers are great with kids! Tim Wolchek has world class experience with martial arts and is an excellent sensei. The experience and skills the kids gain is a solid base for almost any martial arts that they want to pursue later, not just karate.

Wolchek Academy has been a great, positive experience for my two boys ages 6 and 8. They get to see all their friends, have positive leadership from adults who are very experienced working with children, set goals, get great exercise, and be with their friends. The afternoon sessions for this age group are very well priced and convenient. Wolchek really puts families first and provides a great service to the community. I love having wireless access there. There is a good waiting/viewing area for adults. And they have handled my youngest childs food allergy needs very confidently and well, which is a rare thing to find. We started this spring and I am sure well have our boys attend there for a very long time. Very happy!

Enrolling our 5 year old Miles at Wolcek Academy has been a transforming experience. He was hooked after the first class. Besides learning great martial arts skills he is learning life skills - listening, self-discipline, respect for others.... Tim and Brian are amazing teachers and roll models while keeping it fun. The summer camp they run was fantastic as well and a great value.

We tried out 4 different martial arts facilities in Boulder just to get a feel for what was out there and found Wolchek to be the best mix of fun and discipline for our small children (4 & 6). Mr. Wolcheck and Mr. Scott keep the kids extremely engaged by constantly changing the drills and games; they also focus on respect and truly know each child. My children love coming; I strongly recommend the Wolchek Academy!

My son started when he was 5 and the instructors were all patient and encouraging. He is now 7 and loves going to Karate at Wolchek Academy. They have instilled confidence in him and most importantly focus which has carried over to his everyday life and school. Thanks WAMA!

I started karate here when I was six years old and Im still doing it today! Wolchek Academy of Martial Arts is a great way to build self confidence, focus, fitness, flexiblility, and learn self defense, while having fun at the same time. Every single person who walks into the doors of Wolchek Academy has a smile on their face. I have seen a few other studios, including some in France, and they are absolutely nothing compared to Wolchek Academy of Martial Arts. I highly recommend this karate studio.

This place has been amazing for my 3 kids-- cant thank the wonderful instructors at Wolcheck enough. Weve been there for almost 6 years. Great to watch how kids of all different ability levels gain confidence, build skills and support each other through the program. The instructors really know how to connect with the kids and motivate them. Ive recommended Wolcheck Academy to many others over the years and each time Ive talked another family into trying it, theyve loved it too.

Weve been attending Wolcheck for a couple years now and love it. Wed asked around about martial arts studios and were surprised by how many require a year-long contract. Wolcheck has been welcoming, supportive, and instructive from the get-go while offering affordable and flexible instruction. Mr. Wolchek and Mr. Scott arent just black belts -- they know how to get kids to pay attention, move their bodies, practice mental and physical discipline, and learn new skills. As they grow I hope they will look into a bigger space that will let them expand the practice.

I cant say enough great things about Wolcheck Academy. My son has been taking classes there twice a week since last fall. He loves it! I have never seen him so passionate about anything. Mr. Wolcheck and Mr. Scott know each child personally and really care about them. The classes are challenging but fun at the same time. I promise you will love Wolcheck!

I started Karate at WAMA when I was 5 years old. I fell in love with the teachers. They cared about me and helped me work on every aspect of Karate. I have continued to train there and now I am a second-degree Black Belt with them. Recently I have started to take Eskrima classes. They work on your Cardio and skills, for the upcoming tournaments. Recently I went out to California for the National Stick fighting event and did a great job. The instructors have been doing Karate since they are young and they are some of the best in the World.

This place is AWESOME! My brother and I have been taking Eskrima classes on and off from WAMA for about 4 years. The people are amazing, its engaging and fun, and weve learned SO much. Beginner? This is the place you want to be. Go learn in a great environment. Expert? This is the place you want to be. Go try out your skills against all the experienced leaders at WAMA.

You had me at hello (well maybe shortly afterwards). We moved to the Boulder area 3 years with two almost black belts for kids and went searching for a dojo where they could continue their training. After wandering into and out of numerous schools in the area, we walked into what was then Karate America on 30th street in Boulder. We were warmly greeted, and an assistant instructor told us about the school and invited us to attend a class (for free) to see what classes were like. We came back and our kids attended a class with Tim Wolchek (owner), who basically covered all of the disciplines that the school teaches in a hour overview. The kids thought it was very similar (if not better ) to their old school, so we became customers nearly three years ago and have been happy with our choice ever since. The atmosphere is a large extended family, everyone helping everyone else, numerous disciplines to train to, in an environment that is conducive to learning. The dojo is clean, and provides space for parents to observe, and young siblings have a play area. We spend nearly 7 hours a week at the school learning Karate, ju-jitsu, and have opportunities to learn other disciplines (just not the time). Our kids (now black belts) are assistant instructors, and spend a lot of time with Head Instructor and Program Director Brian Scott who has encouraged our kids to grow in many ways. My wife attends kick-boxing class twice a week, and I have started on the journey to learn karate, and ju-jitsu myself through the instruction from the school... by the way did I mention they changed their name to Wolchek Academy of Martial Arts this spring?Both Mr Wolchek and Mr Scott are trained in multiple disciplines, and hold black belts in most, Karate, Kempo, Eskrima, Ju-Jitsu, Judo, Boxing, etc. As a result students get a broad approach to their training, which keeps classes varied and interesting.Both of our children were encouraged to participate in competitions, and are doing so successfully, creating a healthy advancement in their skills and confidence.We really could not be happier with the school we chose. I encourage you to stop in and have a chat with Mr Wolchek or Mr Scott about how attendance can benefit you or your children. Rate plans are incredibly flexible, and they offer many different disciplines at the school to choose from.

What can I say about WAMA? Too many, but I will start by sayin that I owe my current weight and fitness level to WAMA, I have been in Boulder for a bit over two years and have been attending classes for almost as long. I walked into the studio to ask Mr. Brain Scott if I could come in and hit the bags sometime(I fancied myself as a boxer) need less to say he convinced me to come in and take classes. two years later I have learned a tremendous amount both in technique and in new diciplines(Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Eskirima, Muay-Thaiand Karate) Before WAMA I had never had any formal martial arts instuction, but even still as an observer, I noticed how great the instructors wre at relayin the lesson and making sure EVERYONE gets it.I am blessed to have come across this studio, bot only did they get me in th best shape of my life but I also have made a good amount of friends within the studi , not just class mates, but also parents. Wama is not just a martial arts studio, they also teach responsability, honor ,respect and there is an amazing sense of community
