I trained at HKA from middle school through high school (2004-2010). Since leaving for military/college I have trained at a few other schools/styles. I can confidently say that a foundation in martial arts from a place like HKA has been one of the most valuable experiences of my life. I learned discipline, fortitude, respect, humility, and integrity. It really is the complete martial arts experience. Hoover Karate Academy values its students honor over anything else.

If you want to look for a place to work out, find a hobby,learn the path of a martual artist, or a therapist this is the place you need the instructors treat you with respect even the underbelt ranks, they push you to limit like never before, anyone can join they dont judge on how you look or how you live etc. Not every class is serious it can be fun for any age you can be 90 and still train if you want your children to learn about dicipline and respect or self defense this is the right place for them the instructors are very creative while teaching not just in karate but teach you life lessons
