Carleton H. says, "I was a little nervous initially about attending classes (at any dojo), as someone with no previous Martial Arts experience, and being a little on the older side, and not in great shape by any means... Sensei Werth, however, was super kind and very encouraging in our initial conversations; which is what convinced me to try Main Street Martial Arts above any other dojo. I was very impressed with Sensei Werth upon meeting in person for my first class. The class was physically challenging for me in my current state; but Sensei again, was so kind, encouraging, and supportive. I felt very welcomed and included by him and the other students. The dojo itself is very clean and well kept. You simply cannot find better people. It is clear that Sensei and staff pour their hearts and souls into the dojo. I am continuing on my journey here at Main Street Martial Arts, and I am excited for our future." Read more

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.
