Midwest Karate has been a big part of my life these past 8 years. The training that I have received here has benefited me both mentally and physically. A challenge every day that keeps you coming back for more. 

- Rob Miller

I was immediately impressed with Sensei Minarik and the assistant instructors, all are positive influences and great with the students.

- Emily Martens-koop

The women's self-defence classes at Midwest Karate have been so much fun. I've gained so many skills and increased my strength and confidence in my ability to defend myself in life and at my job in healthcare!

- Vennessa

 Our family was very welcome by the staff and we were always treated respectfully, I really love how I feel welcomed and comfortable leaving my children and sitting in on classes. My children have learned so much and have become very strong, I am very pleased my girls are learning the skills to being more disciplined and to protect themselves. I highly recommend Midwest Karate if people are considering putting their children in Karate classes.

- Alex

I used to think Karate was great for discipline and exercise, but overly traditional, and likely not great for street self-defence. After watching some of the coaches and high-level students in class, then training with them myself (including some full-speed sparring), I have completely changed my tune. Sensei and a few others could absolutely destroy me on the street, yet they're super nice/easygoing. All good people there.

- Loi Nguyen

Both my children trained with Sensei Mark as a part of Midwest Karate since 2022 and they absolutely loved it. It teaches them to be patient and be disciplined in everyday life. Highly recommended!

Fantastic place full of fantastic people! Their Women's Self Defence class is particularly enriching, and unfortunately a necessity in this day and age. Very highly recommended!
