KARATE CLASS for KIDS & ADULTS
Isshin Ryu Karate is one of hundreds of karate styles, but is very versatile in that we use 50 percent punches and 50 percent kicks, which allows you to deceive your attacker in a self-defense situation. We use hard, soft and circular blocks with snap punches (which is perfect for continuing into more contact fighting). Snap kicks with every part of foot (i.e. ball, heel, top & blade). Knee and elbow close in techniques are also taught. Karate is a Japanese word which means "empty hands"; (in english) which is the essence of self-defense.

KICKBOXING CLASSES
Rocky’s Dojo offers kickboxing classes for women, men, and youth. Our classes are co-ed and for 1-hour. We teach our students self-defense, striking with punches and kicks and multiple types of bags to teach strength and striking control. All our students build self-confidence and learn to remain calm under pressure. We train in a safe, fun, and controlled environment that is suitable for all skill levels and all ages.Learn self-defense through flexibility, coordination, conditioning, and discipline. Basic punches, blocks and kicks will be taught.
We are not a cardio-kickboxing class. You learn how to kickbox and not just punch a couple of bags. There is cardio in all aspects of classes but it’s not the main emphasis. We teach kickboxing and incorporate cardio into the workout in every class for conditioning purposes. The emphasis is on the technique used if you ever need to use this for self-defense. Since our kickboxing classes are for both beginner and advanced levels, each member can work out at their own pace.

(June 13, 2022, 6:08 pm)My boys (ages 5 & 7) absolutely love coming to Rocky's Dojo. They are having a lot of fun working with Master Rocky and Sensei Chris, and the higher - level students who come to help out are great, too. It's been good experience for them all-around, and fun to see their excitement when they bring new skills home and practice even on their off days. They especially love coming to the bonus sparring sessions on the weekend!

(October 26, 2021, 9:00 pm)I love bringing my 6 year old son to his karate lessons. My son enjoys the training he is receiving. He has improved greatly with balancing and core strength. My son has developed new skills and is training consistently to earn his yellow belt. We enjoy the karate tournaments very much; my son's favorite part of the tournaments is the sparring competition.

(December 6, 2019, 9:24 pm)Rocky's is great. Our 5 year old has been doing karate w/ Rocky for 2 years. The senseis are amazing. They are very patient and are great with keeping the kids focused while having fun. The older, more experienced students are amazing too, they help and guide the younger ones. Its a great environment all around. Would absolutely recommend Rocky's dojo.

(October 8, 2019, 8:52 pm)I started kickboxing classes as an adult and couldnx't be happier. I'm being challenged, but also shown patience in learning technique. Every trainer has made me feel very comfortable and worthy of their time and attention. The level of training that I'm receiving is outstanding. Thank you!

(August 10, 2019, 5:24 pm)We started our 5 year old son here at Rocky's Dojo about a year now and he has never been so focused on anything else like he is with karate. He has made such a huge transformation since starting karate here at Rocky's Dojo with his maturity level when participating in all curricular activities. I truly believe it is the unique style of regiman training and teaching that will keep bringing my son to the next level in this martial art as well as life.

Master Rocky and his staff provide a safe, inviting environment that is very educational, while you are getting a fantastic workout. I absolutely love taking classes here.

(March 5, 2018, 8:01 pm)Absolutely incredible experience for my son. He has learned so much. I feel confident that he is not "pushed" thru to the next belt and that it is truly because he understands and has mastered the skills needed. I am NEVER disappointed and recommend Rocky's to everyone!

(January 5, 2017, 5:49 pm)Rocky's Dojo has been a great place for my kids taking karate. The sensi's have plenty of experience and are great people. Master Rocky brings so much energy to every class as well as all the classes he teaches. Master Ron (Rocky's Father) also has a great energy and works so well with the kids. The kids are allowed to go at their own pace and get out what they themselves put into it, but always encouraged to keep pushing forward. There is a great family atmosphere that weather a student or a parent of one feels apart of. There is a reason that Rocky's Dojo and Gym have been around for so long.
