Master Curtis Jordan is simply a phenomenal karate instructor. For the past 7-8 years I have had the pleasure of being trained by Master Jordan and it is a wonderful experience! He teaches with a personable and hands-on approach that is easy for all to grasp. The atmosphere within the academy is very friendly, and the other instructors are great teachers as well. All in all, E.C.K.A.is one of the finest places to be trained in martial arts in the Western Pennsylvania region.

I have been training in Chinese Kenpo under Black Belt Master Instructor Curtis Jordan for over 18 years. The East Coast Karate Academy trains all ages, men, women and also children. You will receive individual attention and a program just for you with your own goals in mind. This facility is very welcoming, clean, and offers top-quality training. This is the preeminent academy for martial arts in the Pittsburgh area. I would definitely recommend it.

I have been training under Master Jordan at East Coast Karate Academy for two years, and I have been very impressed with his level of knowledge and the way that he works with his students. He gets to know each student individually, to help them understand how to best approach the training. He pushes you hard, but understands each person has a different level of capability.
I had never taken any martial arts classes before, and as a relative beginner I really recommend it. The combination of physical exertion along with the almost meditative and graceful movements completely de-stresses you after

I have been training under Master Jordan at East Coast Karate for over 20 years. I have checked out other schools just out of curiosity and none have compared to the quality instruction I have received under Master Jordan's leadership. The school offers a great learning environment where students can master the arts in a friendly, respectful atmosphere and not have to deal with the overdose of testosterone and egos that many of the other schools have. Whether you are a man woman or child, if you are looking for a place to train in the martial arts or aerobic kickboxing I highly recommend it.

I started going to East Coast Karate Academy this past July. I really enjoy the kickboxing classes! I have played many sports and I have worked out the majority of my life, but WE all know that working out can get boring. The kickboxing classes keep me motivated and push me to work harder! I definately noticed results! My endurance has gotten better and I have definitely noticed a difference in how my clothes fit. So if you are looking for a great work out, East Coast Karate Academy is where to go!!!

I joined Master Jordan's Cardio Kickboxing class due to a work tragedy, with the thought I just need to keep my mind and body busy for a while. I looked all over the Pittsburgh area for a place to just try Cardio Kickboxing. I called Master Jordan to get some basic information and after our conversation, I could not wait to sign up. I have now been with East Coast Karate Academy for almost 2 years and I cannot see myself leaving any time soon. Master Jordan is extremely welcoming to new comers. He pushes you hard so you get the most out of each class but also is very attentive to you if he thinks

Our 6 year old son started karate at East Coast Karate over a year ago and has really come a long way with respect to his ability to focus and his fine motor skills.
He is proud of his accomplishments as he just earned his orange belt and has decided he wants to continue. His reason? Because he really likes the personal attention he gets from Master Jordan. Our reason for committing to his continued karate at East Coast? Because we appreciate how much our son is learning to be respectful and disciplined from someone other than us and we admire Master Jordan's commitment to excellence, consistency

East Coast Karate Academy is a wonderful place for children and adults. My son has been attending class there for about two years. In those two years he has learned self discipline, focus, and most importantly self confidence. Mr. Jordan ( the owner and teacher) creates a tough but at the same time a very warm and inviting place for kids to learn Karate. I hope my son continues the love for Karate that Mr. Jordan has taught him. He can use these skills in every aspect of his life.

East Coast Karate Academy in Moon Township, is the best kept secret in the martial arts world.
My son and I have been training Chinese Kenpo at East Coast Karate Academy under Master Curtis Jordan for over 10 years. Master Jordan has tremendous patience, especially with his younger students, and I am impressed with his talent, reputation, and knowledge of the martial arts. He and his staff continue to be great role models for the students.
My cardio kick boxing training at East Coast Karate Academy under Master Jordan is also second to none. This full body workout has helped me improve my strength

I have been attending East Coast Karate Academy for about 3 months. I actually joined for a project I must complete to graduate high school. The owner, Master Jordan, has been extremely helpful and welcoming through the way. His school offers a great learning experience along with a fun and friendly environment. The school has classes for all ages, female or male, and I highly recommend this academy to anyone and everyone whose either looking for a place to master martial arts or even get in shape with kickboxing!
