Karate International of West Raleigh’s main goal is serving the Raleigh community with high quality kids karate classes.
Our Raleigh kids karate classes develop self defense skills, character, discipline and sharpen focus.

We care about character. Every week, we have a mat chat where the main focus is on developing character. The topics rotate week by week and are discussed every class.
Kids love our classes because they’re fun. Parents love our classes because they’re educational and instill great character.
Speaking of character, our teachers lead by example! Kids learn best by watching and doing, so we make sure they watch great instructors and do their best!
Developing children’s character is crucial! We help reinforce this by requiring our kids to use manners, show focus, working hard to achieve goals and much more!
We work hard to make sure your child uses great manners and makes eye contact. For many kids, this is a struggle. It’s our passion to help children in every way we can.
What else do we teach? Self defense! Our students learn moves such as punches, kicks, and grip breaking to prepare kids to defend themselves.
We Have the Experience to Help Your Child Succeed!
Our head instructors each have 10+ years experience in martial arts. To learn more about them and to see their faces, visit this about us link: https://westraleighkarate.com/about-us/
