Our kids love BBA! The karate classes give them a much needed boost in confidence and fitness. Between the summer camp and after-school programs, BBA has been an invaluable resource for our family; the kids feel very welcome there and never get tired of it.

We are so happy we joined the Black Belt America family. Three of us joined around the same time... myself, my 9 year old, and my 6 year old. It has been great for all of our personal development. I am in the adult class. I love the challenge and it's great exercise. My kids have learned discipline, improved posture and balance, and I feel good knowing they will be able to protect themselves if they need to. The teachers are great, and everything is well organized. Thanks BBA!

This place is money hungry. I enrolled my daughter in thier karate class and signed up for 6 months because it was a cheaper option($160 monthly). This was a month before school ended and than I enrolled her in the summer camp program they offer. Well they can't "stop" the direct payments once u sign up for summer camp. So they tried charging me for both summer camp ($240 a week) and after school karate which my daughter was unable to attend because she was enrolled in the summer camp program. I had no problem paying but I'm not going to pay for summer camp and karate when they wouldn't let her

When my daughter started at Black Belt America, she was very shy and withdrawn. Throughout the years, Black Belt America has given her so much confidence and helped her develop leadership skills in ways I see reflected in every aspect of her life. Having karate as a constant in her life has increased her self esteem, not only through the confidence she's gained but the support system she received in the BBA staff and the camaraderie between students.
I admire the instructors' patience and knowledge in dealing with every child, no matter where the student is at when they walk into the door. Students

Black Belt America is a very welcoming space for all skill levels. As a company, I see that they value growth and leadership, no matter your age. I love(d) my experience with them, I especially loved working with Liceth. She always answers all of my questions with kindness and I felt well informed after talking with her a few times.

I applaud Mr. and Mrs. Wideman. Both of my children grew up in their organization, earned their Blackbelts, and continue to hone their karate skills. My daughter has gone from a socially awkward little girl to a confident goal oriented young woman. My son has gone from a boy with ADHD to a young man who has self control and focus. I credit Blackbelt America and it’s staff for a big part of my children’s development. They not only work on teaching their students karate, but they also work on character development. Both of my children have learned to be good leaders, be more conscious of the

My five-year-old daughter and six-year-old son have been with black belt America for about a year now. It has been so great for both of them from a discipline standpoint, from a self-esteem standpoint, increasing focus, and just an overall great place to have fun, while working on strength and coordination.
BBA has always been incredibly responsive to communication. My son had input regarding one of his instructors techniques... instead of taking it in a negative fashion they were very open and understood that different kids respond to different techniques. That instructor modified his teaching

Black Belt America is an awesome place! My son has been attending for over a year and grown so much. The self confidence he has developed is showing in all aspects of his life. His attention in school has improved,his attitude is positive and he loves it! They focus on community building through teaching the kids respect, confidence, physical fitness, social awareness and discipline. They treat everyone with open arms and we definitely consider them family!
