The best instructors, and programs available. Karate West is the gold standard for martial arts training for all ages and abilities.
Excellent school, totally earned my respect. Highly recommended!
Karate West has been my dojo for more than 20 years. The leadership and integrity are, in a word, Excellent. Domo Ariagato.
Great school, the kids have a lot of fun and the instructors are very serious. When you see a kid with a black belt you know they worked a lot to reach there.
I knew nothing about martial arts when our sons started training at Karate West almost 5 years ago (they were ages 4y and 8y). In fact I thought it might make them fight.
But now I’m so glad we gave it a try! They have learned leadership skills and how to stand up to bullies (without fighting). They’ve learned about healthy life style and goal setting.
My shy little boy found his confidence and my busy little boy found his focus. We’ve also made some awesome friends and the boys have found a passion that keeps challenging them both physically and mentally!
I went to Karate West as a child and now my two boys are students at the Issaquah Dojo. While Karate West is a large school, they do an amazing job of creating personal connections with the students and parents. I highly recommend Karate West!
Me and my two girls go to Karate West, we couldn’t ask for a better place to supply our girls with a large number of role models.
I attended this school as a teen until I left for college and I can honestly say that Karate West is on of the reasons that I am a successful adult today. This school not only teaches students martial arts but arguably more important are the life skills they show their students. I owe Karate West and it team of amazing teachers and assistants for my success in life.
Karate West will repost the in-person class schedule when we are able to move to Phase 2 and open at the Issaquah Senior Center.
Until we can reopen for in-person classes, Karate West offers Group Zoom classes, Private Zoom classes and In-Home Private classes. Email [email protected] to learn more.
Thank you for your patience! We are all in this together. We want to get back to doing what we love… teaching our students the life improving art of Shudokan karate!
