B. Partridge
"Started out wonderful with my 7 year old child. Learning nunchucks, Bo staff, block set, strike set, advancing belts….until it wasn’t. My child was in warhorse karate for 4+ years and we left when he was an advanced belt just below black belt. They were keeping my child from advancing due to our year being up and they wanted us to sign for another year when it wasn’t needed. They kept mixing belt levels in with my child’s class and my child just got so bored doing the same old sets! And unless you’re one of Mr. Tongs favorites (by signing up for all of the extra classes and camps) he won’t even really acknowledge you. It’s gross really how everyone was/is vying for his attention so bad. And while we were there they changed uniforms twice, to try and get people to buy the newest and latest outfit. I would definitely not recommend this karate school."

"Our oldest daughter has been going to Warhorse for 2 years and our youngest daughter started in January. They both love going to karate every day because it is fun and engaging. Mr. Tong knows his kids and pushes them to be their best everyday! Karate has helped my oldest with her behavior, effort, and attention. My youngest has become more confident in herself and says I can instead of I can't. Warhorse is an amazing karate school for kids that want to learn a new skill and grow as a person!"
Jennifer Allen
"I signed my son up for Warhorse Karate • Jiu Jitsu to see if it was a sport that he liked. My son still talks about his first meeting with Master Tong where it was explained to him that earning a black belt takes a lot of time and hard work and is similar to climbing a mountain. It was explained to my son that there may be times where he stumbles backwards, but as long as he continues to dedicate himself and is self disciplined, he will earn each belt and work towards a black belt. Warhorse has been great in helping my son overcome challenges, to be proud of his accomplishments and to see how the lessons Master Tong teaches in class apply to everyday life. I can’t recommend Warhorse enough!"
Travis Torman
"It's been over a year since my daughter joined Warhorse and in that time her confidence, discipline, respect, and self-awareness have significantly increased. Mr. Tong holds his students accountable and provides a safe and fun atmosphere for learning."
