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.

Why take karate classes?

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

  • Increases confidence and self-discipline
  • Improves strength, endurance, and flexibility
  • Teaches goal-setting and perseverance
  • Improves focus and concentration
  • Better balance and coordination
  • Improves cardio health and stamina
  • Improves social skills and teamwork
  • Teaches self-defense skills

How long are karate classes?

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.

Bjorn B.
Wonderful Experience for my son. He has matured in all aspects from improved listening skills, self-control, discipline, having fun and forming new friendships with Taekwando group. he started at age four and after 7 months has performed and excelled in his ever sparring competition where he won a trophy for being the only 5 year old to excel in the 6-9yr old category. Master Chet pushed all his students to strive for excellence and never to give up. This positive motivation makes a big difference in his development. My son also brags at school about participation in taekwando. Overall great school great students and great and devoted parents and Insructor... You will not be disappointed considering NYCBBC as your child's gateway for success and personal development.
