Verified feedback from our students and members.

“This school is amazing. I have been studying Karate for 11 years now.”

I became a student of Sensei and Guro Wall about 10 months ago. The classes are so full of great information. The students are kind and respectful. The instructors always have an agenda of what they want to cover in class, make sure they cover it and then review it. If you are considering any martial arts training, look no further than Paradise Valley Karate. You will not be disappointed.

“Started taking my kids to PV Karate 3 months ago. They go twice a week and LOVE every class.”

It's about more than Karate for us - my kids are learning respect, discipline, listening skills, working hard, repetition, and soaking up all the knowledge of the sport. Sensei Mike Wall commands attention from the group in a gentle and fun way. No ego, no yelling. I can tell he truly loves guiding these kids. And Guro Heather has been so pleasant as well in helping me learn how to help my kids progress. The kids went to Spring Break camp and loved it - totally affordable, btw.

“Paradise Valley School of Karate provides excellent karate teaching to students of all ages."


Sensei and Guro are top-notch instructors and mentors. They are professional, have high standards, teach the children respect and discipline, and make it fun at the same time. The culture at this dojo is friendly, welcoming, and encouraging. If you’re looking for a place for your child to learn self-respect, self-discipline, self-control, and respect of others while they learn the traditional skills of karate, this is the place!
