I want to preface this by saying that I haven't been here for some 7 or so years - but prior to that my younger brother and I had been a student of Sensei's for a decade, starting at 6, until I was into my late teens. His instruction left an impact, and was one of the formative experiences of my childhood. I recognized a genuine lack of balance in my life when I stopped taking lessons and moved away. We would never break wooden boards, or fight in a ring, the exercise at the higher levels was strenuous at times, and the instruction was disciplined - yet even as a young man I recognized the importance or such practices. When I look back at the belt that I reached, I can say with pride that I worked my *** off to get there, and know that it meant something. Everyone in that dojo was there to better themselves, and learn a traditional martial art, not pretend to be in an action move and put on a show... Though I'd argue that a well-executed kata by a skillful martial artist gives a **** of a show. Stay safe during these quarantine times, happy holidays, and arigato Sensei.

If you consider training Martial Arts you should try Ancaster Karate. Sensei Corvino has decades of experience as instructor. You will excel beyond your expectations if you will follow his lead. Great people, great instructions. Classes that focus not only on your body but also on your mind. This training will make you a better human being.
Ancaster Karate is an excellent Karate club - Sensei Corvino instills discipline and stamina in his students. Not only is it impressive to see the black belts perform their katas at the testing events, but it is amazing to see the progress particularly the young students make. My son has attended for more than six years and progressed to the highest grade below black belt (black belts are only achieved at age 16 or older).
I've been training at Ancaster Karate for over 15 years and can attest to the high quality instruction that is offered to all who train here. Traditional Karate at its best, Sensei Corvino's ability to communicate the most technical aspects of the art is something rarely seen anywhere else. Sensei has preserved the true standards of excellence in Karate, the training lets us become better at everything we do.
I am so thrilled we found Ancaster Karate, both for my kids and for myself. My three boys attend karate, and I attend the adult tai chi class. The dojo is a truly special place, and Sensei Corvino is a wise, kind, and dedicated teacher. I know my kids are deeply privileged to be able to study here. For myself, I wish I could attend more often, as every time I go to Ancaster Karate I walk away feeling connected, focused, and renewed.
