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 Karate Bros is a result-oriented Aurora and Denver 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 (ๆพๆฟค้คจ). 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 martial arts 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, USA SafeSport trained and ceritfied. Senseis are World, Continental and National Champions with over 50 years of combined karate teaching experience.
