Jarren G. says, "I have been training with Kyle since the end of May, and I cannot be happier with the results. I have always had an interest in boxing and wanted to train as a means of improving my physical fitness. I made the right choice in coming to Kyle. The sessions are very structured, giving me an exact understanding of what we are working on and why. Kyle is an excellent communicator and is very astute at gauging the progress of his clients. Because of this, he is able to challenge you while also providing clear directions on how to do so. Kyle has an encyclopedic knowledge of boxing technique and history stemming from his years of experience in the sport. If you are looking to increase your fitness level, confidence, and have fun doing so, I would fully recommend Kyle as the trainer for you. -Jarren Gary " Read more

Your karate questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do karate classes cost?

Karate classes cost $100 to $150+ per month on average. Prices depend on the class size, student's age, location, and number of classes per week included in the membership plan. Classes held at community centers typically cost less than those held in professional dojos. Private karate lessons cost $40 to $80 per hour and are tailored to your needs and skill level.

In addition to the class fee, you'll have extra costs for uniforms, belts, and testing fees. A karate uniform—also called a Gi, karategi, or dogi—costs $60 to $120 on average, while belts cost $5 to $20. Some schools include a gi and belt with your first month's tuition. Testing fees vary by school, but beware of schools that charge more than $20 per test.

Karate classes provide a variety of benefits for both children and adults:

  • Increases confidence and self-discipline

Kids' karate classes are typically 30 to 60 minutes long, depending on the kids' age. Adult karate classes range from 1 to 2 hours in length.

Reviews for Middletown karate classes

Recent success stories from people in the Middletown area.
Pamela B.
I am a 55 year old woman, pretty good shape. I started working out about 8 years ago, on my own. Last year I decided to up my game. I've always wanted to learn how to box, really box, so I looked for a trainer. I found Kyle and honestly I thought it was a little pricey but I thought I'd give it a try and see how it goes. Well I just signed up for 20 more sessions. Kyle is professional and knowledgeable. I am working on getting stronger. Increasing my endurance and of course my coordination for boxing. Kyle has a plan for my workouts. They vary week to week. Most importantly I never feel like he's watching the clock. More often than not my session goes over our time. All in all a great experience.

Trevor is a great coach. My son loves his personal training time with him. He has attention to detail and a way of explaining concepts to my son that he understands. He pushes him and doesn't let him slack but makes training fun, tough, but enjoyable. I highly recommend him as a trainer.

I have been training with Tony "TNT" Grano, an 8-time national amateur boxing heavyweight champion and Olympic competitor, and I couldn't be more satisfied with my progress. Tony's expertise as a heavy hitter is evident in every session. He meticulously guided me through the fundamentals of boxing, from footwork, blocking, and bobbing and weaving, to punching and the crucial mindset needed for the sport. Tony's comprehensive approach and personalized training have been instrumental in my development. Whether you're seeking a serious workout or aiming to refine your skills as a seasoned fighter, I highly recommend Tony. He will undoubtedly help you achieve your goals.
