Premier Kids Karate School in Denver.

Looking for "the best Karate School in Denver", "Karate classes Denver" or conveniently "Karate Dojo near me"? Look no more!

Okinawa Dojo by Karatebros is a result-oriented Denver and Aurora Martial Arts institution owned and operated by two brothers Sensei Vitaly Padalka and Sensei Alex Padalka.

We are proud to represent USA Karate as an affiliated karate club in Denver, Colorado. At Okinawa Dojo by KarateBros you and your child will learn Olympic Karate - Shotokan style. Do not get confused - you won't be learning MMA (mixed martial arts), Taekwondo, Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga or Kung Fu at this Dojo. We teach true Shotokan (松濤館). Shotokan was founded by a great master Gichin Funakoshi in the early XX century and is the most widely practiced style of karate in the World nowadays. Our approach to teaching is a mix of traditional japanese and modern competitive. Our students learn basics (Kihon), forms (Kata) and sparrings (Kumite). If you think that karate is an individual sport - you are mistaken - we are a big karate family #DreamTeamOkinawa, we train as a team and we rise together as a team! Our goal is to be the best karate school Denver can offer!

Karate brothers Alex and Vitaly are USA National Karate Federation Certified Coaches and Referees. Senseis are World, Continental and National Champions with over 50 years of combined karate teaching experience.

Karate classes available to everyone regardless of age or skill level:

- Kids 4-6 years old (Pre-Karate)

- Kids 7-13 years old (groups: Beginners, Intermediate, Advanced)

- Teenagers and Adults 14 years and older

What a weekend with the Team!
#DreamTeamOkinawa made a trip to Colorado Springs to USA Sr. Team Trials to watch the best of the best in the country competing for their spot on US Karate Team 🇺🇸. We enjoyed spectacular fights and kata performances. What a high level demonstrated by many athletes! Congratulations to everyone who made the team, especially too our friends and for those of our friends who narrowly missed it - you are still awesome, keep training and never stop!
Okinawa Team got to visit the Olympic Training Center and took a tour inside its facilities. This the historic year for Karate - this year we will be in Olympics! Ushaaa!
It is so cool that we will see some of the athletes who competed on Saturday to compete in Tokyo, Japan at 2020 Olympic Games very soon.
The journey continues... 🥋

Karate-do is a journey that never ends!
This past weekend Sensei @alexokinawa and Sensei @vitalyokinawa successfully tested for their Yondan - 4th Degree Black Belt. The test was conducted under FSKA program and Sensei John Bolosan as a head examiner. “We are very satisfied with our performance and happy to reach a new milestone on the way of karate! We tested among our great friends Sensei Tony Maccioli and David Elmer, and the rest of our friends and fellow Yudansha - it made the experience even more powerful. But the most significant part of this exam for me was testing together my brother. It is something we started together as kids and continued as we grew up. Exactly 6 years ago on the same day together we took a test for our Sandan, 3rd degree Black Belt and I wish for this tradition to go on for many more years.” - Sensei Vitaly.
First of all congratulations to our Sensei John Bolosan who has been our mentor, friend and teacher since we moved to the United States. Of course the words of gratitude go to our first Sensei from Russia - Anatoly Romanoff @romanov_a.d , who’s input in our karate education and success was tremendous. We are proud to carry on the traditions and knowledge that we inherited from both of our Senseis!✨ We are so grateful to our loving wives @lusya_li , @cmapp and kids who were there to support us! and to the most important people in our lives - our parents! @padalka9 and @dr_padalka thank you very much for putting us on this road of amazing karate journey and being there for us from the first step we made on this path. 🙏🏻 Congratulations to all Yudansha who successfully tested with us on December 21st, 2019:

Sensei Dave Elmer - ROKUDAN (5th degree)
Sensei Ben Cadez - YONDAN (4th degree)
Sensei Tony Maccioli - YONDAN (4th degree)
Sensei Vitaly Padalka - YONDAN (4th degree)
Sensei Alex Padalka - YONDAN (4th degree)
Alberto Pereda - SANDAN (3rd degree)
James Watt - NIDAN (2nd degree)
Sensei Randall Kokkinen - YONDAN (4th degree) - tested a week earlier due to the upcoming surgery. Wishing you fast recovery, Sensei!
