Karate Edge

I had a fantastic morning with the kick boxing walk-on class. Amazing staff! Friendly and helpful. 100% reccomend this gym if you want to get into martial arts!

Karate Edge has the best instructors I've ever met, and they give you unwavering support throughout your entire journey! Kids and adults of all ages will not be disappointed! They make you feel like you're part of the family right away.

Karate Edge is such a great influence to the community and I love watching the instructors work with my kids, the lessons taught are life changing & right now my son really needs to have as many great influences wrapping rheir arms around him as possible. With his mom not doing good things have been rough for him & having karate to look forward to has really sparked something in him that I hope he continues to cherish into his young adulthood.

Joining Karate Edge was the best decision for our son. He is 10 and was struggling with finding something to be passionate about. He doesn’t like organized sports but this is something he loves! This is more than a team, it really feels like family. All of the instructors are great with the kids and they make learning fun. If you are looking for a great experience this is definitely a place you should check out!

I’ve been training here for the last 6+ years - as has our ten year old daughter. Our youngest has been doing it for three years now. It’s a great family atmosphere with knowledgeable instructors, supportive peers, and classes seven days a week!

Sensei Tony Bennest has been doing karate for over thirty years, he’s a fifth degree black belt, and has been in business for over a decade. His school has grown to over 300+ students and counting!

Now, I’m a black belt, and I continue to learn, train, and improve. They offer reasonably priced private lessons. There’s also cardio kickboxing in addition to extra classes to improve kata and sparring skills. I’m still learning and improving.

There’s also extra events, seminars, and workshops too if you’re looking to improve more.

In addition to improving physically and mentally as a result of my training, I’ve also developed meaningful friendships and have a greater social circle as a result of meeting so many great people at the dojo.

From a martial arts perspective, Sensei Tony Bennest teaches us a multifaceted approach that includes everything from weapons, empty hand techniques, self defense, kata, sparring, grappling, etc.

All the classes have agendas and a curriculum that the instructors follow. They’re organized! The expectations for each rank are clearly defined and are written down. Testing is fair too.

I’ve had other teachers in the past (having done martial arts multiple times over the years), but no school or teacher was as supportive nor fostered a culture of respect and success like Sensei Bennest has. Sensei Tony is constantly learning and improving his own skills as well as the school curriculum- he practices what he teaches.

As a dad, I can think of no better place for our young daughters to train. I’ve seen what other dojo kids have grown into in terms of their martial arts training, and the people they have become. I know my kids are in good hands. Also, they offer summer camps, birthday parties, and parents nights out which the kids love to go to!

Come on in!
