Reviews of Keith Jones Karate

I don’t have enough nice things to say about Mr. Jones. From how he pushed kids to always do their best, how he mentors them, how he and the other instructors there form such a family in the dojo. To this day, I know I could walk into his doors and out of all the students he has had, he would instantly talk to me and know me. He was a huge influence in my life, the creeds are mottos I still carry with me to this day, and he is such an inspiration. I remember even hearing he got cancer a few years ago and I instantly dropped everything and went to visit him in the hospital. He had other friends and instructors in the hospital room visiting and he was so happy to see me and everyone else there. He brings out the best in people, and it may not be the style for everyone, but he is always respectful and has the student’s best interest at heart.

If you are seeking a place for your child to be ridiculed in front of the other students and watching parents, this is your place. If you desire your child to be subjected to demoralizing and humiliating instruction techniques, this is your place. Keith Jones practices these methods in his sarcastic, demeaning manner to "instill character and discipline." His student creed includes: "...avoid anything the would reduce my mental growth..." and so we did... we never went back.
