Joining is the Best decision I have ever made!Started with just my kids joining and then with a little convincing, I too joined! Age and agility doesn’t matter. Your desire to try and commit is what you need!The instructors and other team members are so supportive! There is a true sense of camaraderie, while we all strive to do better than we did the day before.

This place is great and can’t recommend enough for all ages.This isn’t just a martial arts school. Their atmosphere, philosophy and approach to training is focused not just on karate skills but also improving physical health, self confidence and personal discipline. They focus and reinforce the self defense and self improvement & empowerment aspect of the art rather than just learning “combat sport” techniques.They provide focused tailored approaches depending on age and skill levels - from 5yrs to 50+.They also do an especially amazing job with kids, instilling confidence, discipline and respect in a positive and effective manner. It’s very obvious they take pride in using karate to help kids be confident, empowered and disciplined to be the best they can be in all areas of life. I’ve noticed a tremendous improvement with my child in the short amount of time we’ve been training here.If you are an adult looking for self betterment by learning a new skill & philosophy or looking for a place to help your child grow by increasing self confidence and learning how to be more respectful and disciplined, this is DEFINITELY the place for you!

If you really want to learn martial arts this is the place to go in the northland. Wither your young or old they can help anyone in this journey. It is a perfect activity for families! Adults really need to look at this as it will really push you mentally as well as physically. I have never sweated this much without lifting weights. It is truly a great way to get your body and mind centered. It is also super addicting and Mr. Schee and Mrs. Miller teach it because they love it.

A well balanced school... The attention to detail, and engagement with students is second to none. Students learn honesty, courtesy, respect and discipline, while at the same time actual real world application of self defense. Thank you AKKA Northland for your continued professionalism.

We have two very different boys and they both love going to karate at AKKA! The instructors are so knowledgeable and patient. They take it very seriously and still have a lot of fun. There is a comfortable place to wait while the kids have their lessons. A lot of parents and adults train too though. We are so glad that we found this place!!

The instructors are fantastic especially with the kids! The growth and positive change we’ve seen in our daughter over the past two years through their instruction and support has been phenomenal. I joined a short time ago myself and am so glad I did. The classes are always different, and it is such a positive and family atmosphere. We can’t say enough about them!

You will learn so much more than you think you will starting your Karate journey with AKKA Northland-USA. With its family oriented atmosphere, a great community that supports one another reach their goals in Karate and life. I joined a couple of months after my daughter. Mr. Scheme and Ms. Miller are inspiring as well as supportive. My daughter just received her black belt. I’m so proud, but mostly thankful for the life lessons she learn along the way.

Very well run! Class sizes are not too large and the instructors are amazing at what they do. They are able to really work with the kids and the kids learn new things every week. My child is learning way more than just karate. They teach respect, discipline, confidence, focus, and even how to deal with bullies. Could not be happier! AKKA is great!

My family has been at this school for over 6 years. We appreciate the balanced blend of all elements of martial arts. Mind, body, and spirit are all engaged in the classes run by confident and skilled instructors. They challenge their students to work for continual self improvement in an atmosphere that is supportive and enjoyable.

I joined about six years ago at my daughters request, and found the school fun and rewarding. The instructors are very knowledgeable, and well informed about learning styles. Last summer I received my black belt at age 58! Still going to classes and still loving it.

We found this school a few years ago and thought it would be good for my (at the time) kindergartner to try in between swimming and soccer. Bored with the gym, treadmill, and video fitness trainers that I always ended up burning out on, I signed up shortly afterwards and have never looked back! Now my son and I are working up through the ranks together. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the camaraderie with my fellow students is rewarding. The skill developed here can be useful in everyday life, and last a lifetime.

We absolutely adore this studio and its staff. From the beginning, Ms. Miller and Mr. Schee have been friendly, supportive, and downright encouraging. We have and would continue to recommend AKKA to our friends, family, and anyone looking into self defense or a safe welcoming place to learn discipline, courage, and respect. I am so proud to have my children training here.

AKKA is an outstanding martial arts school that teaching more than how to kick and punch. Their system embodies the spirit of martials arts and helps you train both your body and mind for better self discipline. The instructors are wonderful people who care about their students both on and off the training deck. This is a great place for all ages and you will find yourself leaving a better person than you were when you arrived.

Professional instruction while keeping karate fun and interesting. All aspects of the martial art are covered, from the basics to advanced material to philosophy. Classes for juniors are geared toward their understanding and energy level. As an adult student I find karate challenging to body, mind, and spirit.

This place is a hidden gem. I started taking classes with my daughter and havent regretted it since. Mrs Miller is direct but approachable, a great instructor. The workouts can be brutal. Cant say enough about this place. If your wondering about karate this is the place to check it out. They have a perfect beginner trial month to see if you like it.

My kids have been attending NORTHLAND AKKA KARATE for almost going on 5 years. My 2 eldest kids have made it to black belt and my youngest started about almost 2 years. It allows them to be surrounded by people who have the same goal in mind, self improvment, and to help those around them. No matter if you have a child in tiny tigers class (ages 4-8) or in the juniors or you as an adult in the adult class. If you are 30 years old as a yellow belt or 11 years old that is a black belt. The goal is the same. To improve yourself not just physically but mentally as well. It is always a positive and motivative atmosphere. All in all in a nut shell I LOVE NORTHLAND AKKA KARATE
