My daughter has been under the instruction of Drew Taylor for a few months now. She has learned discipline, respect and karate skills that have improved her confidence and overall attitude. I highly recommend Shotokan Karate Center to any kids or parents who want to give Karate a try. Drew is very patient with the students and answers any questions you have about Karate. Keep up the great work!

This dojo is by far the best I have seen. My son loves going to class and the sensei is amazing. They don't just teach TJK, but also respect and responsibility. Anyone from children to adult can come and be a part of the team. I would recommend them to anyone!
Issues with impartiality and how belt rankings are decided. They do not do well with any form of criticism. As soon as I complained about how the belts were decided, they blocked us without informing us. Extremely immature.
