Chief Instructor Kevin Downard, 4th Dan HDKI teaches all of the main classes at our dojo as well as private lessons. Total body workout: Martial arts is a high-aerobic workout that uses every muscle group in the body. Your stamina, muscle tone, flexibility, balance and strength will all improve through martial arts.

Stress relief: In martial arts you get to kick, punch and scream, which is a great stress release no matter what your age. In addition, the ancient practices of martial arts have a calming affect that melts the stress away. Reach and maintain your healthy weight: Due to the total-body nature of a martial arts workout, tons of calories are burned during every class.

In total I've studied at Kensho for a few months. Sensei Kevin. I've been to mixed classes, the old teens and up classes, and the more recently added adult classes. Sensei is very good with the kids in the dojo. As a student I find that his instruction is easily digestible and engaging, as he helps you see the larger movement, then helps you understand the mechanics and refine the technique. And honestly, compared to pretty well any business that you pay to engage in a physical hobby, I can't really think of anything that is more affordable.

I did a lot of research, trial classes, and vetting before deciding to attend Kensho Karate and I'm happy to say I made an excellent choice. You get flexible class times almost every day of the week and it's still very affordable when compared to other dojos. Sensei Kevin has obviously dedicated much of his life to Karate and it shows! The instruction at Kensho is some of the best I've ever had -- everything is explained and broken down until every student understands and can perform what is required. At Kensho, I've seen 5-year-olds and I've seen 50-year-olds -- no matter your age or level of

My son Drew has followed this one around several locations over the years and is his #1 activity outside of work. I remember the first day I took him to see the place (different location at the time) ...and I remember the first day, the following week, that he started. Kevin has been great.
