I sent my daughter here 4-6 years ago. Now, she’s a black belt. The teachers that teach there, are extremely nice and they show great support towards the kids. If you haven’t sent your child to this place, I recommend you do that now. They allow kids from 3 1/2 yr olds to adults! This place is awesome, that’s why it deserves a 5 star rating.

My daughter loves going to Samurai Martial Arts. I have been very pleased with everything they have done to overcome all the challenges they were dealt with Covid and following CDC guidelines. Love the online classes. Great job.

Great place to train and meet others! The senseis can raise up your self-esteem and lower your shyness. They have such friendly people! Its nothing to be scared about. Most of my cousins are training there and we are having a great and fantastic time! 😁

Easily one of the least welcoming and unprofessional atmospheres. I came over in 2014 to this dojo and I was very unimpressed. Stayed here only because I was striving for my black belt. Waste of money, wish I chose a different dojo and had better senseis. Many of my friends there had also had these concerns yet stayed for their year contract. When they incorporated their leadership class program, they wanted to add on more fees and money to take on top of normal monthly expenses. I have already taught for 4 years (starting at green belt at my other dojo) yet when they brought in this new program, they said I had to, to keep teaching the younger kids, when they retained more information when I taught them, rather than the actual paid senseis. Wow. Highly wouldn’t recommend. Only stayed for Sensei Drexel because he was absolutely amazing and was an amazing instructor with lots of wisdom!Other than that, don’t waste your money here.

Their programs are alright for kids. Though the technique they teach is generally pretty sloppy. Waste of money imo. The instructors act more like nannies with blackbelts than coaches with intention. Karate is outdated and serves no real purpose. Waste of money and way overpriced.The kickboxing is a workout for sure. You want to borderline have a heart attack, do it up. Too bad there is more to losing weight and being healthy they dont help you with but what do you want?The grappling, is alright. Ive seen better Gracie schools by far. I think Curts program is a bit overpriced compared to other programs of much better value. Curt is charming, and has hustled a while in the business, but he lacks much in the way of innovation, and keeping up with the revolutionizing martial arts market. New techniques and strategy are the currency in this market and Curt falls short when measuring up.

I highly recommend this school for anyone wanting to learn martial arts. They offer programs to meet everyones needs. My daughter who is 11 yrs old has been a student at Samurai for 6 yrs. My husband has been a student at least 15 years. Both of them continue to train in karate. I have taken womens self defense classes,cardio kicking box classes, and am thinking about trying Jiu Jitsu. In July and August they offer a week long kid camp, which my daughter loves!The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and personable.They take great pride in seeing your child grow personally as well as in the martial arts discipline they are learning. Great school and great staff...doesnt get any better than that.

It started with a Birthday and continues with a membership...Ive gone to visit many schools and have participated in martial arts about a quarter of my life so I know a good school when I see one. Curt and his staff are great with kids. My daughter showed an interest in martial arts after getting hooked to power rangers. We scheduled a birthday with Samurai after looking at other schools with extremely over priced birthday packages and or needing to be a member first. Not only did they welcome our birthday they went above and beyond. I would like to review the birthday and membership separatelyBirthday - First they offered to dress one of the employees as a power ranger for us, which was great. They advertised a large pizza but actually ordered a Sheet, the set up was great and everything was planned out perfectly and the kids did not become disorderly because they were constantly being engaged with 1 of the 3 Senseis on hand. I highly recommend anyone looking to do a Karate Birthday to pick Samurai Martial Arts.Membership - From the birthday we got a special Boards and Belts class, At the class my daughter was able to demo a full blown session and break a board with the other white belts, shes a quick learner and loved it. We signed her up for a 1 month promotion which was fairly priced, included the Gi, instruction handbook and unlimited classes for the first month. My daughter took that month and ran with it, we are now in our second month and since she used almost every available while class has already gotten her 3rd yellow stripe. We loved it so much that we signed her up to the 3 year Masters Club, which is a lot like the original promotion but it gave her an extra uniform, patches and unlimited classes. Shes only 6 years old but has shown such initiative and likes to attend all 4 classes each week instead of the recommended 3.Again I cannot say enough good things about this Dojo, not only do they focus on Isshin Ryu Karate, but they also have Wing Chung, Pilates, Kickboxing Cardio and even a Gym with treadmills (All that is missing is a pool and you have the total package)Thanks Samurai for helping our daughter reach her true potential-Sal
