PKSA KARATE
PKSA stands for Professional Karate Schools of America.
PKSA Karate is one of the largest martial organizations in the country. We are professionals at changing people’s lives through our martial arts schools.. PKSA Karate has been around since 2000 to train and inspire people of all ages.
At PKSA, you and/or your child more confidence, discipline, self-esteem, leadership skills, teamwork, and an improved fitness level while having fun and learning to defend yourself.
PKSA Karate Ann Arbor North
At PKSA Karate A2 North, we pride ourselves in teaching an outstanding traditional martial art in a family friendly environment. Coupled with exciting kicks and effective self defense techniques, the discipline, self-control, and perseverance fostered by the study of Tang Soo Do make this training a work out for the body and the mind.
Our instruction offers a balance between physical training in the martial arts, self defense concepts and simple philosophical lessons for a balanced life.
For over 15 years we have been living and working in the Ann Arbor community. Aside from martial arts, camps, and fitness, we also feel obligated to work in the community. Every year we participate in several fund-raising and charity events to benefit people right here in Ann Arbor including our Turkey Brigade, which provides Thanksgiving meals to hundreds of needy families each year.
We believe that martial arts are about more than just kicking and punching and encourage our students to achieve excellence, inwardly and outwardly.
Our Team
All of our instructors are trained in ways to bring out the best in you and your child! Each member of the instructor team has various training and backgrounds to add to our community. Combined with our curriculum, we will make you the very best Black Belt that you can be.
Testimonials
“We want to thank PKSA Karate North Ann Arbor for the many years of training our son in karate. It’s hard to believe that he is already a red belt! Over the years, our son has grown more confident and self assured, thanks to the guidance and support at this dojo. We have been thrilled to be part of this supportive and diverse community. There are numerous women in leadership positions, which is always a welcome experience. We have been so impressed to see them transition from in-person to Zoom, and then roll carefully back into in-person. COVID has been challenging to coordinate for all businesses, and PKSA A2 has done a tremendous job sticking to CDC guidelines and making all students and parents feel safe while returning. Much love to our PKSA fam!!” -Theresa & Chris Taylor
“Great instructors!” Happy to be a part of the PKSA family!” -Doreen Murphy
