From the reviews

Super good karate place my kiddos go there. The instructors are really good and seem to know what there talking about other than most karate places in muncie. My kids really love it. My kids had nothing to do so i sighned them up. I would totally recommend them if someone asked me!

This is a premiere place to take karate lessons in the area. We have tried other dojos and this is by far the best. They don’t just teach you how to win a competition but also real self defense techniques. The instructors are very knowledgeable and are great with the kids.

★★★★★ — Nikall, Sep 2023

They are very family, friendly organization. They do a great job with teaching technique, respect, and accountability. Their entire family is involved with the Dojo. They have a very low student to instructor ratio. I would not want my grandkids to attend anywhere, but the Bushido Dojo.

Your first kickboxing class at The Bushido Dojo

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. 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.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
