New Visions Dojo 6601 Sugar Valley Drive, Nashville, TN 37211

"This place is absolutely amazing! The teachers are dedicated to the subject and their students, they are patient, kind, insanely skilled and very knowledgeable. The training is serious, but the classes are also fun (I signed up my 12 year old son and after watching him for a month I couldn’t help but join as well). The overall atmosphere is very supportive, it feels like a true community. I love everything about this school! So fortunate to have found it!"

"New Visions Dojo is a truly exceptional place to learn Wado-ryu karate. Ryan & Chelsea Guillemet are gifted instructors with a clear love of teaching and mentoring. To those ends, they have created a welcoming environment of both balanced challenge and rigorous support. Their dojo is built on trust, talent, teaching, and transformation. And the dedication of all their staff is evident every day. We could not be more grateful for the role they have played in our daughter’s development."

"We love New Visions Dojo! My two sons have been students here for over 8 years now. What started as a fun activity for them to get some of the wiggles out, has turned into a lifelong love and respect for the discipline of karate. This dojo is top notch, and the community of parents and students we have met through the years have become like family to us. Highly recommend!"

"My 5 year old has been attending classes at New Visions Dojo for the past 9 months and have loved our experience. The instructors are fun and dynamic, but also disciplined with the students. They challenge each student at their own level and are really patient allowing each child to develop at their own pace. There is also a strong sense of community at New Visions Dojo with fun activities happening outside of the classroom each month. We have loved our experience so far and look forward to continuing our karate journey with New Visions Dojo."

"I’ve been training at New visions Dojo for about a year and a half. I’ve had such a great experience. Sensei Chelsie Guillemet and Sensei Ryan Guillemet train with passion. They have put in the work and they care about their students. I always feel energized after a class. I also like the self defense aspect of it, as a smaller sized woman I feel better knowing that I have the skills to protect myself if I need them. My 5 and 7 year old daughters also train at NVD. I highly recommend and if you’re on the fence come in and see for yourself. Here’s an old picture of when I first started. I’ve come along way."
