Essential Life Skills Taught at our Karate Academy
WE ARE CHRIS POLLMAN KARATE ACADEMY
We teach self-discipline through martial arts.
Because what we teach works, it is important that students learn the responsibility that goes along with learning martial arts.
Our academy is a safe learning environment.
Since classes are age and ability specific, students are working only with other student at the same level as themselves.
We make your decision worry-free.
There are no contracts to sign, and we offer a 30 day money back guarantee. Come join us!

CHECK OUT THIS TESTIMONY FROM A NEW MEMBER!
"Just here to encourage anyone with children to consider enrolling them in karate at Chris Pollman Karate Academy!
They also have adult classes, but I’m sharing my experience as a parent.
My son is 6 years old, and in 1st grade. I was very nervous as I know absolutely nothing about the karate world, and had no idea what to expect. I had no reason to be nervous to say the least!
From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcome and comfortable. The instructors immediately introduced themselves and went straight to my son to speak with him.
Keefer, one of the instructors, got down on the floor to color at a table with Dawson, and that just sold me right away. He clearly understands getting on a child’s level to connect with them.
Nathan & Colten are also so great at what they do, and I think all of these guys are what makes the place so special! We have played sports where it’s just parents that want the “coach” title, but lack the ability to teach young children or simply communicate with them.
I believe they offer a free class to check things out, and I cannot recommend it enough.
I wish we had started last year when my son was 5, but I am just thankful we finally moved forward with this! This is the type of place we WANT to continue supporting in our community, and help keep it going for our kids now and future generations.
So, get out of your comfort zone and introduce your kiddo to something new!
Go meet the awesome staff, and you’ll get it right away just like I did."
