My daughter has been a student with CBK for 2.5 years and it has been a fantastic experience! The changes I have seen as a parent have warmed my heart immensely - I have seen such tremendous growth, discipline, enjoyment, and confidence since we joined!! The owner, instructors, students, and parents all contribute to a well rounded environment. I highly recommend CBK for anyone looking!

Our son had taken a keen interest in karate last year, so we started to research local programs in our area. CBK was the first one we spoke with, and after one phone call and one trial session, we registered without visiting any others! Their in-person sessions are very well organized with safety protocols that make us feel safe sending our son to practice. Their ability to pivot to online sessions during lockdown was also very well executed and gives us the flexibility to train many times a week from the comfort of home. Both Shihan Scott and Sensei Lucy are wonderful instructors, and our son
