The following
testimonials have been submitted by parents and students.
"My two sons have been at the
Okinawan Karate Club for almost four years. During this time
they have gained upper body strength, improved their overall
coordination, learned to count and follow instructions in
Japanese, and achieved the rank of purple and yellow belts. The
boys are very proud of their accomplishments. But to me, the
most important lesson they’ve learned is respect for one another
and their fellow classmates. Thank you Sensei and to all the
instructors at OKC!"

"The Tiny Tot Program and Children’s Program helped my son
develop from a very shy child who would not participate in the
year end Tot’s graduation to a confident strong child who loves
to compete and perform in front of people in Karate as well as
other School and Extra Curricular Activities."

"The Children’s program has helped my older son develop his
physical strength, improve his coordination and his
concentration. The OKC program has aided in his development as
a confident pre-teen. He looks forward to going to class as
well as helping others. His success in competition has done
wonders for his self esteem."
Margie & Larry

"Not only is my daughter learning the skills that karate has
to offer, but with each belt level she also gains confidence,
self-esteem, and inner strength. The OKC holds their students
to a high standard. And the students respond -- with spirit."
Mrs Rosa

"I came to
karate as an adult. Recently separated I was searching for
something to help develop me both physically and mentally. Thanks to the teachers and other students at OKC I have
learned more about myself and what I am capable of than I ever
thought possible. I have tried many times and never stuck
with any exercise before I tried karate. It has increased my
confidence, my spirit and my physical fitness."

"My
three children have been involved in classes at the Okinawan
Karate Club since each was old enough to join in. This school
offers continuity and balance in the instruction given. Each
of the children have begun to demonstrate characteristics that
I had hoped they would develop through karate classes. The
oldest being shy and introverted when he started has now
gained confidence and willingly participates in many of the
activities he would only watch before. The middle child who
was extremely active and unable to settle down now
demonstrates focus and a better ability to concentrate in
school. The youngest just loves to attend class because the
others do but is developing skills and strengths I never
thought possible due to early detection of gross motor
problems. I highly recommend the Okinawan Karate Club and
their caring dedicated instructors to anyone wanting serious
karate instruction for themselves or their children."
