My children love Modesto’s Karate! The staff is friendly, professional and patient and are excellent teachers. My girls love each class and are learning so much – from physical fitness to self-defense to self-confidence. Each class keeps the students engaged and motivated and they have a blast in the process. I love the “word of the week/month” feature and the pep talks at the beginning of each class are a great way to start. The studio is clean and comfortable and the hours are quite convenient for busy schedules. Definitely recommend.

We chose Modesto’s 8 years ago and it has proven to be one of the best decisions we’ve made for our sons. Mark leads a team of dedicated, nurturing and skilled teachers. We feel like we are part of a family here. Modesto’s builds karate skill while fostering strong character development. Our boys have grown in their confidence and self-discipline. They are encouraged to do their best and to bring out the best in each other.

For someone involved in martial arts for over 25yrs, when it came time to put my 9yr old into training my standards couldn’t be any higher. We tried many schools, some lasted a class or two others not much longer than 10 min. Yep got up and left. Sensei Mark has assembled the a-team of instructors, they love what they do and it shows. When your kid is excited and already awake at 9am on a Saturday and ready to go, you know you found the right place. Don’t waste your kids time somewhere else bring them somewhere they will learn something they love and love something learned. Thanks Modesto.

My son has been going to Modesto’s for years! I cannot express how great Mark Modesto is as an instructor. He teaches our kids how to be responsible, hard-working, motivated and dedicated. And to become the best they can be. All the other instructors, Mr John, Ms Gabby and Ms Chrissy work great with all the kids, as well. I could not be happier with the progress my son has made. He looks forward to every class and to learning more and more everyday! Modesto’s was one of the best decisions we ever made!! If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would!

I cannot say enough about how great Modesto’s has been for my 12 year old son and 10 year old daughter! They have been attending for two and a half years, and are still excited about going to every class! The staff is EXCELLENT and my kids have learned values and focus while having fun! The studio is very clean, and the schedule is flexible. Highly recommend!
