About Our School

Welcome to the USA Karate website! At USA Karate we are teaching students way more than kicks, punches, and self-defense. In addition to developing physical skills, at USA Karate we are committed to helping students develop a higher standard of character through our proprietary Character Development Program. From the first class to Black Belt and beyond, all students are enrolled in our Character Development Program where students learn valuable life lessons, lessons students won’t learn in any other classroom or activity! It is this unique combination of Martial Arts Training and Character Development that we believe creates the foundation for developing unshakeable self-confidence, exceptional self-discipline, black belt focus, improved coordination, increased fitness, and goal setting abilities to help you or your child achieve success in multiple aspects of life!

Karate is not just for kids! Many teens and adults enjoy the benefits of being in our program. Whether your goal is to lose weight, increase flexibility, improve balance, work on your cardiovascular fitness, be able to keep yourself safe, cross-training for other sports, or just to release stress, we have a program for you!

Our programs are designed for people of all ages and experience levels, from beginners, to advanced Black Belts, to instructor training. All classes (unlike most other activities) are taught by dedicated, professionally trained instructors in a space specifically designed for training in Martial Arts. Sign up today to give it a try! We hope to see you on the mat at USA Karate soon!

As parents, we know the challenges of raising confident, resilient, and respectful children in today’s society. As experienced business professionals we know the attributes required for a successful career. It is this dual perspective and experience that sets the foundation for the Martial Arts, Character Development, and Leadership Development Programs at USA Karate. While becoming a world-class kicker is cool and impressive, it pales in comparison to developing the self-motivation, discipline, self-awareness, self-control, and perseverance required to overcome life’s challenges and to achieve your goals and dreams in life. It this philosophy that guides the entire staff at USA Karate to provide a state-of-the-art program focused not only on the physical benefits, but more importantly the life-skills necessary to help you or your child reach your maximum potential in all aspects of life! USA Karate is the afterschool, school Where Leaders Are Formed!

Why Choose USA Karate?

Dedicated Professional Instructors Teaching Life Skills

Most other “activities” are often taught by volunteer coaches with a primary focus of developing the physical skills required to “win.” As a result, parents are frustrated to learn that these “activities” can damage a child’s self-esteem, rather that increase it. However, at USA Karate, teaching your children valuable life skills is our job! Our full-time, professionally trained staff teaches classes 6 days a week, with a curriculum focused on more than the physical skills. In addition to improving physical skills, our curriculum helps develop discipline, respect, self-control, and communication skills. We are the after school, school!

Educational Yet Fun!

The smile on our student’s faces both before and after class says it all. Not only do our students start to excel with their chores at home, getting better grades at school, being more aware of others perspective, and contributing to the community in a positive manner, they have fun doing it! Getting started is easy and FREE! Just fill out the form on this page to discover the benefits of our program for you and your family.

We have 3 little girls enrolled in the USA Karate Leadership program and from our experience I can tell you they have become more confident, composed and focused. Our girls are 10, 8 and 6 years old and to see these character traits already starting to take shape makes us so happy to be involved with the USA Karate team. The instructors are engaged and vested in developing good people that are not only well equipped to defend themselves but also to lead through the challenges the world provides us all. Keep up the great work USA Karate, thanks for offering our children a fun and encouraging environment to learn and grow.

I enrolled my children in classes about 18 months ago. They absolutely love it! The program is wonderful. The kids enjoy the physical activity of karate. It is much more than physical activity however. It is a program where they learn respect, hard work and goal setting. It impacts our daily life outside of the studio by helping them to do chores at home and concentrate on their school work to earn special rewards in karate class. I loved the program so much that I, myself, joined karate 6 months ago! It is a wonderful way to stay active and be connected with my children in a new way.

We greatly appreciate the time and energy invested by Mr. & Mrs. Seme to teach us about the "7 Habits" to living more positive, productive lifestyles in our Black Belt Leadership program. I've recommended the book they provided, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens" to both school staff and friends. If it would become a reading requirement in schools, I believe the students, staff and administrators would reap incredible rewards. It is that encouraging and empowering! We are grateful that our daughter is participating in the Black Belt Leadership program to gain this additional education and enhance her self-confidence and physical skills.
