Crescent Moon Karate

The newest transformation I've noticed in my daughter is in her confidence! She used to hate being the only girl in class, be timid when she was called on and it felt like she was holding back! Well this girl rises her hand wanting to be first now, shows the boys how it's done when she's the only girl in class and when her BFF quit because it got too hard she kept going!! Thank you Kyoshi. You have been my partner in guiding her. We love our CMK family!!!

Our 7-year-old son joined the dojo in the fall of 2019. Based on proximity to our home and the effusive reviews, we chose to begin classes with Kyoshi Torres. I could not imagine then how vital his leadership and genuine joy for his art would become in our son’s and our lives. His devotion and focus is contagious along with his spot on sense of humor and fun. Unmistakably one of the best decisions we have made to date for our child. He finds inspiration and motivation to participate more fully in our home and at school since beginning his training with Crescent Moon. He has always been an enthusiastic participant, but it is markedly apparent that by following Kyoshi’s example he has a deeper understanding of what it means to bring your best efforts to any task or situation and is developing a sense of personal responsibility.

We love Crescent Moon Karate . Kyoshi Torres is high energy and is great with the kids. The focus is discipline and respect, not only in class but at home too. In order to test for a new belt rank, student have to have their parent(s) approval, meaning they are doing their chores/tasks at home . This has made my daughter more self sufficient and has instilled confidence and self discipline in her.She has created a daily checklist for herself including reading, writing, math and practicing karate and always tries to help around the house. This program makes learning fun and kids pick up essential skills like self defense and respect for one another. We have been going for a year and a half and we highly recommend it!

Amazing school! We found out about Crescent moon karate academy thru Facebook. They were running a special and decided to give it a shot. My son is 6 years old and it's his first time doing karate. He has done other sport's and usually gets bored but with the techniques and knowledge they have showed him he is very committed. I have even caught him practicing in the shower hahaha. The staff is super sweet,and most importantly patient with the kids. I highly recommend it!
