Ms. Patty and Mr. "Mac" (as the kids call him) are amazing!!! They are so patient and kind with children. My son Jackson looks forward to karate every Tuesday and Thursday night. Its a great way for kids to learn discipline and focus on a specific thing. Exercise is important and this is a fun way to incorporate it in your child's routine without calling it exercise. Love this place!!

I can’t begin to say how valuable these two have been to my 5 year old this past year. Today, he ran faster than I’ve ever seen him run to show me black tape on his belt! And to say he was a great listener and said “I’m so happy for myself!”. That is the best feeling ever! Team Unity is professional and genuinely care about their student’s. I couldn’t ask for a better team for my son!

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I wear to my first class?

Martial arts students wear a traditional uniform known as a dobohk (도복). Since first-time students usually don’t have their own uniform yet. New members will receive their first uniform as part of their full program. For your first time, we recommend wearing a T-shirt and a pair of comfy pants for free movement.​

Will competing in tournaments be required?

While competition can be enjoyable and motivate students to train, it is not required. You do not need to compete in tournaments to continue training or to achieve higher ranks. Although our instructors have trained students who have excelled in competitions, tournaments are entirely optional.

Does martial arts increase aggression?

The philosophy of martial arts focuses on developing positive character traits such as respect, discipline, focus, confidence, and self-control. Our aim is to guide students to handle challenging situations calmly and peacefully. Martial arts skills are taught to be used only in self-defense. Even students who have previously struggled with aggressive behavior often develop a kinder, more respectful attitude toward others through their training.

How long does it take to earn a black belt?

Provided a student trains regularly, consistently, and seriously - it will take between 3 and 4 years to earn a black belt. It is not unusual however for a student to take longer to earn this prestigious rank. Students are not pressured to promote up, but rather are encouraged to be honorable and practice humility when it comes to their new ranks.

Can I train with an injury or medical condition?

Generally, yes, but we recommend consulting with a medical professional for clearance before starting any physical training program. In most cases, martial arts can be beneficial for individuals with conditions like ADHD or autism. Additionally, all techniques and skills can be modified for any physical limitation.​

I hold a rank in another style, will you honor it?

This is wonderful! The short answer is yes, we do honor any earned rank. The details of how we honor the rank is contingent on multiple factors such as amount of time trained, rank achieved, accreditation of instructor/organization, etc. Because of this, every transfer is handled on a case by case basis.

Is there an age requirement to train?

Our only age requirement is for our Tigers class which has a minimum age of 4 years old. Each of our classes are tailored to different age groups, ensuring age-appropriate instruction and activities. There is no upper age limit - adults of all ages are encouraged to train!. The journey of martial arts is something that can begin at any stage of life.

Do I need any special equipment to train?​

To begin your training, you need only show up. Most standard equipment that you will use during regular classes are at the studio (e.g., pads, mats, heavy bags, etc.) Any special equipment that a student will need (e.g., sparring gear or training weapons) are specific to the student, and can be ordered through the studio as needed. This type of equipment is not immediately required, and only becomes necessary after at least a few months of training.
