We pride ourselves on having an inclusive, supportive & nurturing environment where children & adults of all ages & skill levels can develop their martial arts skills at their own pace & with confidence.

 

Furthermore, we strive to instill in all of our students the positive aspects inherent in the martial arts: discipline, commitment, dedication, respect & hard work. 

 

We believe the martial arts can serve to strengthen a student's mind & spirit as well as their bodies, no matter what their age.

 

We're not a chain, franchise or a big corporation's idea of what a karate dojo should be.

 

We're not a "black belt mill". At Lakeland Isshinryu Karate you earn your next promotion, based on class attendance, dedication and exhibiting the proper skill level.

 

We are a business, but one that offers real value for your money. 

 

Considering the advanced rank of our Sensei and the other instructors we believe you'll find our rates a real value. We don't sell tickets to promotion night. And we don't try to charge you for every little extra. 

 

At Lakeland Isshinryu Karate we don't follow a marketing plan or a corporate guidebook. Our main concern is our students & developing in them a lifelong love of the positive aspects of the martial arts.

​

I look forward to seeing you and your family at Lakeland Karate and helping you begin your martial arts journey.

​

Sincerely,

​

Sensei Joe Sirvent

8th Degree Black Belt
