Peter Pippos Karate Center 3 Post Office Square, Acton, MA 01720

"We are so pleased with Peter Pippos Karate Center. The entire staff is caring and friendly, and they teach confidence and respect in a fun way. Their flexible attendance policy and class schedule are a huge bonus. With other activities, it is sometimes a struggle to get my son out the door on time, but when it is time for class at the dojo, he will drop whatever he is doing to get out the door on time. Cannot say enough great things!"

"We enrolled our two boys and couldn’t be more impressed. One child needs to develop his confidence while the other needs to work on his focus. Peter and his staff know each child personally and are attentive to their goals and personal needs. Of all of the extracurricular activities we tried, this has been the best choice by leaps and bounds. The pricing is fair, and the schedule is flexible. We LOVE Peter Pippos!!"

"Peter Pippos Karate Center has had such a positive impact on our son! He is excited to go to class every single time, and he is not only learning karate, he is learning many valuable lessons he can apply to his life outside of the dojo. The teaching team is amazing, and their passion for what they do is very obvious. They know every single kid's name, and they make them all feel welcome and special. They have high expectations for the students, but they make it clear that it is okay to not know how to do something yet, as long as they are trying. Every student is considered to be a future black belt and this had made my son's confidence soar. The Leadership Program has added even more benefit to his experience at Peter Pippos Karate Center. I highly recommend this karate school to anyone looking for a place for you and your child to have an awesome experience!"

"Peter Pippos Karate Center has been a wonderful experience for my daughter. They inspire confidence, have consistent expectations, and help teach her how to navigate through success and failure. She looks forward to every class, and they have encouraged her to set her goals high and work hard to achieve them. She is also a participant in their Leadership program, through which I can see her self confidence growing. I would highly recommend their program."

"Thank Goodness I heard about PPKC when I moved to Acton! The Pippos family is a great support for the Acton community in so many ways. I first knew of the Center for their after school program, which I'd say is the BEST in town. We're unhappy with the AB Community Education Extended Care program and fortunately PPKC had an opening and we're able to move our daughter to their afterschool program starting in January on 2020 and that was the best decision we could have made. The environment was (and still is) so bright and so positive, our daughter was much happier, with the plus that now she was also doing Karate. Sensei Peter is a great leader, everybody loves him. When the pandemic hit, PPKC quickly started offering online lessons which was great for everyone in the middle of the lockdown and with so much anxiety for what was going on. Nicole Pippos even organized a few times online activities through zoom, like Bingo or treasure hunts. When school started in the fall of 2020, they opened the Empower Academy for kids taking online classes which was a lifesaver for working parents and offered, at the time, some sense of normalcy to our children. I have seen my daughter grown and become a better person, more self-confident, thanks to PKC. She continues to do karate and is also participating in the leadership program. I cannot express my gratitude to the PPKC family for the positive impact they have in our life and our community. We love you!"
