Valley Shore Martial Arts Instructors

Consistently excellent martial arts school with experienced, friendly longtime teachers. They have a variety of martial arts and self defense with a focus on karate. Not a chain - this is a successful, well-run, local business with loyal staff. The owner puts money back into the school facility and is on site during most hours and also teaches. He has a thoughtful, creative approach to what is offered and how to help students develop their skills and move up in their belts appropriately. Highly recommend!

My son went here for close to a decade and we had nothing but a great experience. Great instructors, classes, and karate helped not only his confidence but also his work ethic. Master Keith is a really great instructor and I highly recommend his studio.

Master Keith is very careful with his students and sensitive to their needs (for instance, if a woman does not want to spar with a guy, he respects that, but encourages her to do so for the experience). He covers a broad range of self defense moves, plus a mixture of classes with Krav, Karate and Jiu Jitsu. He won't let white belts get beat up too badly either. He offers potential students a week of free classes which is great! Try before you buy!
