Brian Hobson Karate Studio

"My experience with Brian Hobson Karate studio in Hampton, VA, has been nothing short of excellent. I have seen the transformation in my kids as well as other kids. This dojo instills discipline, confidence, integrity, and character. The instructors at this dojo coach my children with patience and treat each student with dignity and respect. They have an excellent physical fitness program during each class, which builds strength and endurance. My child started out in this studio timid and soft spoken. After years of attending, she is now confident in herself. I am thankful and grateful for the excitement my kids get in attending. My girls have created bonds and friendships within the studio, and everyone treats you as family. I'm thankful for the safe environment and community, Mr. Hobson has created within his dojo, and it is truly unmatched. You will love it here!"

"My daughter has been attending the Yorktown dojo since September. We moved to the area a couple months prior and my daughter had been doing taekwondo for 18 months prior to moving. I called literally everyone in the area. Spent hours on the phone discussing techniques and I just have to say - WHAT A DIFFERENCE this is. Brian Hobson Karate has been amazing for my daughter’s self esteem and her emotional health has improved so much. I tell everyone considering Karate this is THE ONLY place to consider. The fact she’s learning Japanese terms (not just “front kick/back kick” but true Japanese names for everything she’s learning is just a bonus. 10/10"
