It’s been an amazing 8 years at Master Pattillos karate school, I’ve been taking karate with him since I was 8 and I’ve loved coming to class every day since. Every class is filled with not only karate practice but fun and real life styled situations to stay safe in and outside of karate. Master Pattillo always makes class enjoyable and a blast to be a part of. I’ve learned a lot of valuable skills from taking karate I’ve learned self motivation, self control, I’ve worked on many different forms, kicks, punches, and self defense. This is an amazing karate school and I would recommend it to anyone starting out with karate or anyone who wants to have fun, get exercise and learn self defense. I don’t plan to switch schools ever and hopefully I’ll earn many more belts with Master Pattillo.
My grand-daughter has been attending Master Pattillo's classes for 7 weeks now. I love observing as it is a real pleasure to watch someone so skilled in working with children. My grand-daughter wants to give her own review so I will let her continue from here. "I love karate so much and I love to make new friends at karate. Master Pattillo is so nice and really never gets mad at me. I just love attending at this karate place with my new friends. So I am really enjoying karate a lot. Thank you for teaching me all these things in karate. I think a made a really good decision going to Master Pattillo's Karate."
Mr Patillo is a great teacher and very patient with kids... Aiden has been attending his class for almost a year now and absolutely loves it... Ive seen a tremendous change in his attitude and focus at school.
What a great experience this has been. My granddaughter Josslyn has learned so much in this class. I love the way the children listen and follow directions from Master Pattello and his staff. We would highly recommend you signing your child or grandchild up for his Martial Arts classes.
What a great place for kids to learn some amazing skills, make new friends, and become more disciplined. Master Patillo and Ms.Jackson have amazing patience with all of the children and make sure the kids are learning and having fun at the same time. I am super amazed how they can remember each child's name without hesitation or error and remember each child's strengths and weaknesses. My kids have been excited about the new techniques they've learned and all of the fun "extras" that Master Patillo includes in his program. Thanks for all that you do!

The Truth About Self-Defense and the Martial Arts (Part 2) I am sometimes asked “Can you beat up Bruce Lee?” or “Could you take on Johnny Lawrence from Cobra Kai?”. Or, when someone finds out that I’m a 6th Degree Black Belt, they say, “Man, I bet you could really beat someone up.” The truth […]
Presidents Day Presidents Day commemorates the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. I remember those dates being separate occasions on the calendar but, since the mid-1980s, there has been a push to refer to those dates as “Presidents Day”. On this federal holiday, we recognize the significant contributions of our first President. But we […]

Often, when someone calls my martial arts school about adult martial arts classes, I ask if they’re interested in our Karate classes or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) classes. Some people want to do both programs and some want to stick with just one. Either way is perfectly fine! And some people have a good idea of […]
