Sadly we didn't really have a great experience trying to enroll my daughter into the virtual Karate program offered by HCK. My Kindergartner brought home a flyer and was ready to enroll for her first time in Karate. I had signed her up and e-mailed them in order to ensure she was ready to begin her lessons. I sent a few e-mails with zero responses. I also tried to call the office, with no answer. Upon the day of the first class, I was worried that I could not access her classes through Zoom and received a snarky e-mail from Holly (finally) that she sent through videos on how to appropriately register

My son began Karate lessons with HCK in 2013 as a kindergartner. He is now a Junior 3rd Degree Red Belt at the age of 12 in 2020...and is so proud of himself. He has gained valuable experience in physical fitness, American Karate techniques & katas. The tournaments are always well produced and exciting to attend. In this time of social distancing, HCK has not missed a beat with Virtual Classes and Tournaments. This organization is TOP NOTCH!! Nick Smith operates HCK with care and consideration to offer children and adults an affordable, rewarding experience that can last a lifetime.

I've been in HCK for almost 2 years now and I dont know my life would be without it, it's hard sometimes but I've never wanted to stop and I don't think I ever will. My instructor is Mr. Agquiz and I go to Mr. Ayala's class as well, they're both amazing instructors and they have pushed me to do things that I didn't think i could do, they've made me a better person in some ways, I love them so much and they're the reason why i love martial arts.

I absolutely love HCK. My oldest son is starting his 3rd session and our youngest his first session. Their teacher Miss. Zach really does an amazing job and my son absolutely loves her. She is so kind and patient with all the kiddos all the time and I really do not know how she does it. She is a very gifted instructor. Our son has attended 1 weapons camp and 1 tournament so far and both events were very well organized.
I have seen nothing but positive improvement in every aspect of my son's life. It really is a great program, and something my son takes seriously and looks forward to each week
