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

Words can’t describe how proud we are as Senseis!
Our students Eduard Sagilyan, Daniel Skhisov and Maria Gladkih successfully passed their Black Belt test yesterday and reached the level of Shodan [1st DAN] in Shotokan Karate-Do.
We remember the time when each of these kids came to the Dojo for the first time many years ago… and look at them now! Mature, knowledgeable, strong, loyal, respectful individuals - true black belts. We are grateful that you chose us as your Senseis and happy to continue sharing our knowledge with you. It is just the beginning of a great life-long journey.

Sensei John Bolosan was head of the examination group and the test was under the Funakoshi Shotokan Karate Association.

We’d like to thank the members of our examination board who were present at the test. Our good friend and mentor Sensei Tony Maccioli who is always there for us, supporting our events, sharing his wisdom and encouraging us and our students! Alberto Pereda one of the senior instructors under Sensei Bolosan who recently joined our dojo as well. Martin Gissa our senior student who has been training side by side with our new black belts while helping them to prepare for the test by his own example.
Parents of our fresh Shodans - you must be very proud of your kids, but also you must be very proud of yourself for growing your kids the way you have.

To all the friends and families who came to cheer and support for Masha, Eddie and Danik, you guys are great friends:). This is what makes the karate journey so special - the karate family that we find while learning martial arts.
