Both my children -- who never agree on anything -- love this place! The teachers are wonderful and kind and have managed to engage both my socially outgoing, rule-following daughter AND her younger brother, who has anxiety and ADHD. My kids leave each session tired but excited. It is such a relief to see my kids happy, especially after this tough 1+ year of COVID.
East Coast Karate is a great martial arts studio. The instructors want their students to succeed at karate and also to take the lessons they learn at karate into their everyday life as well (character, integrity, hard work, self discipline, etc.) The instructors are readily available if there are any concerns for their students. I would highly recommend ECKI. Two of my children earned their black belts through East Coast. The instructors are very knowledgeable and also very encouraging.
My son has been attending East Coast Karate Institute for many years and is a 2nd degree Black Belt. When he first joined, he was quite shy and lacked self confidence. The best thing my husband and I did was enroll him here. He has grown so much and his confidence has increased tenfold. The instructors are wonderful with the young children and adults alike. They work with you one on one on your strengths and areas where you struggle, I would highly recommend East Coast Karate.
