My preschooler has participated in the tiger classes at Park Karate for about 4 months and we’ve already noticed a growth in his confidence and focus. I appreciate the flexible class schedules and that the owner is more often than not present and very active. Multiple sets of siblings are enrolled, it is obvious why this is one of the more popular programs around.

I love the place and the experience the instructors have is superb. Master Raimundi is a caring instructor who not only worries about the karate improvement of his students but also of all the aspects of the kids personal improvement.

This school is amazing!! My younger brother attended this school and I had the pleasure of watching him grow up into a respectful young man. I know that it was his attendance to the ATA Park Karate program that helped shape him into the young man he is today. In fact he told me that being in the program helped him become the disciplined hard working individual he is today. Knowing that I decided to enroll my 5 year old son in the program when he was 4 years old and I can already see the positive changes in my own child. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a positive activity for their child.
