Kitchener Karate Academy

My daughter enjoys coming to class twice a week. The Sensei is very professional yet knows how to keep the children engaged and have fun. I would highly recommend Kitchener Karate Academy to any parent that is looking for a quality class that your child will enjoy.

We have just discovered this place recently. Kitchener Karate Academy is an awesome place for kids to have some fun and learn something as well.The Instructor Sensei Philip is very nice and friendly. He makes the kids feel at home. He cares about every individual one so no one feels left out. The kids seem happy around him. The place is also very clean and organized. I wish I had known about it long ago. I would recommend this place 100%.

The Kitchener karate academy I attended was a complete disappointment. The instructors lacked expertise and enthusiasm, leaving me feeling unimpressed and unchallenged. The facilities were outdated and poorly maintained, making the training experience unpleasant. I regret wasting my time and money on such a subpar establishment. I would like to take the time to consider the training only gets useful when you are near a grading otherwise it's really dull, boring and repetitive. The only benefit I see in my child is he is now more serious for karate.

Started with my kids classes, then later me and my husband started the adult classes. Karate not only shows you how to self defence or do martial arts but also shows you the art of trust, confidence and friendship. Sensei knows how to make the class fun and intense at the same time. I have seen a huge change in my kids behaviour, becoming more responsible. I am so thankful I found this place and we became a part of the karate family.

If you are looking to start in martial arts, looking for self defense, have some experience or want to build a solid foundation and work towards and participate in professional and competitive karate, then this dojo is definitively the place for you!Sensei Philip is very inviting, supportive, engaged, communicative and provides critical feedback and exercises to all his students to become successful on all levels, while maintaining ones confidence to be able to succeed. With my kids and me participating in all the different programs with all the other members of all ages, I can only recommend to sign up and try the program yourself.

Sensie Philip is a tough taskmaster which is exactly what the young kids need to excel. The dojo is very organized, clean and all students are encouraged to succeed.Highly recommend!

The BEST Sensei!! & Amazing renovated Dojo. I joined Kitchener Karate Academy 2 years ago. Since then 3 more members of our family have joined the Kitchener Karate Academy family. Sensei Phil is so passionate about teaching and mentoring students. His classes are well presented, challenging, detail oriented and fun! My confidence and physical capabilities have improved significantly in the last few months. Sensei always says “ it doesn’t get easier . You just get stronger “.I highly recommend that you check it out yourself.

Kitchener Karate Academy is the best karate business in town.. If you are looking to join some sort of martial arts and learn self defence, then this is the perfect place for you!! The community is great along with Sensei Philip Bellam. Phil is an amazing teacher, puts hard work into his teaching and techniques and always makes sure that everyone is also having fun at the same time. I have gone to a few classes and i have loved it, it’s a good workout but it’s also a very enjoyable every class. Sensei Phil is not only a great Sensei but also an amazing husband,father, and friend, he makes everyone feel welcomed and gets to know his students well but most importantly pushes them to their best ability. It’s always so welcoming and it feels like you are apart of a community even on the first day! I highly recommend joining this Karate Place, you will not regret it!

My Husband and I enrolled our son Eli into your dojo last year. Sensei Phil has been great teaching him the fundamentals of Karate all while making it fun, interactive, and enjoyable. Highly recommend any parent interested signing their kids up for martial arts at this academy.
