Karate International 60 Rockingham Road, Windham, NH 03087

"5 Stars just isn't enough for Karate International of Windham. Shihan Joe and Sensei Shannon have created an environment where my child not only learns karate and self-defense but he thrives and is challenged. Our son started going to Karate International about 5 years ago and we absolutely love it there. Shihan and Sensei are excellent at working with the kids and don't allow anyone to slide. In addition, their patience and genuine care for the kids is evident from the moment you walk into the dojo. When everything closed in 2020, they continued to stay engaged with the students via zoom and they checked in on our son to see how he was doing. They have been a constant source of support and encouragement for our son and family, for which we are very grateful. We consider Shihan, Sensei and all the instructors at Karate International to be an extension of our family and we highly recommend this karate school."

"A wonderful family business all around. As an adult female Karate and Kickboxing student I love the perspective of both a female and male instructor. Their interaction with students of all ages is amazing.... patient, self disciplined, interactive, and fun. So many activities for kids outside of class too....movie nights, Holiday celebrations, etc... Great dojo, everyone both fellow students and instructors are so supportive."

"I trained at KI of Windham with Shihan Joe Costa for approximately 10 years, ultimately earning my black belt in Kenpo Karate. The staff is dedicated to the students, encouraging the desire to continue learning and advancing skills in all age groups, from the "Little Dragons" to the gray-haired adults, my group. My daughter was a fixture there, earning her second degree black belt and becoming an instructor. I recommend the organization without reservation if you're looking for a karate dojo that wants to give each student the chance to reach their peak of skill and fitness."

"I can't say enough of how great this karate dojo is. You will always feel welcomed and part of the KI family. They are dedicated to teaching true self defense and living a life of respect. My son was in a different local karate dojo but my experience with Shihan Joe and Sensai Shannon made me transfer him to KI in Windham. All ranks/belts are truly earned and this teaches another great life lesson. They are also the only local studio that offers adult karate. Highly recommended. Just go check it out or give them a call."

"I trained with Karate International for more than 5 years and learned so much from Shannon and Joe about not only Karate, but also about being a good person. I received my Black Belt while in high school and loved every time I went to the dojo. I think for kids growing up, Karate is a fantastic way to spend their time and definitely would recommend trying it out! My 7 year old nephew now is taking classes with Joe and he loves it too, I honestly can’t recommend it enough!"
