From the reviews
We’ve been with DRKA since May of this year. Our daughter is enjoying her experience and looks forward to weekly classes which have helped her with focus, improved coordination and great exercise in using up all that 8 yr old high octane energy.
Don Rodrigues Karate Academy is truly a home away from home for my son and our family. The owners, staff and instructors are dedicated to teaching the next generation of martial artists. They instruct the kids on proper technique and forms, but also focus alot on self defense, bully prevention and self confidence.
We've been with DRKA for a year now, best decision I made for my son. He has grown so much with confidence in himself! All the Instructors are amazing, I highly recommend enrolling your child.
My children have been going here since June and absolutely love it. All of the instructors are very patient and attentive. They are excited to go to class every week.
Your first kickboxing class at Don Rodrigues Karate Academy & CBR Kickboxing
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
