First impression was really great.

I hadn’t practiced karate in decades, so signing up for a free trial felt intimidating . But from the moment I walked in, Sensei Luis made me feel completely welcome and at ease. He is an incredible instructor - patient, encouraging, and truly supportive. Everyone in the class was also friendly, which made the environment feel positive and comfortable right away. The workout was challenging in the best way, and I left feeling strong and energized. This is absolutely the school I’ve been looking for. I can’t wait for the next class🥋

Mr. Sevilla is a fantastic teacher. What we love most is that he’s firm with the students but also gives them positive feedback. Too many places nowadays focus on what makes the kid happy and not what’s actually best for their learning.

By FAR the best kids program in NYC. Luis is a "child whisperer" and leads with passion and incredible insight. I have never seen my kids as focused or responsive as they are in these classes. It has truly been life-changing for our family to be involved with this program. I could not recommend it highly enough. If i could I would give in 10 stars out of 5.
