My daughter, Gianna just finished the Little Tigers program after having participating in it for a year. She enjoyed it very much as Sempai Amy is very good with the children and made it fun and interesting every time. Along with games, the class taught the core values of self-respect, sportsmanship and discipline. Gianna and I are going to miss the Little Tigers class, but we look forward to her future training and development at ATKA.

My son, Kevin, has been attending ATKA for one year and loves it. Sempai Amy is a really great instructor who takes time for each of her students. I would recommend this dojo to anyone. It teaches, not only the students, but the parents about dedication, respect, and discipline for one another.

I am a student at Lake Forest College, and I have been attending an on-campus Karate class led by Sensei Pat since October of 09. Although I've only been attending for a little bit, I have benefited greatly from the class. I am gaining the important ability to be in tune with my body and find much needed balance.
One kind of funny example that has really really helped me is when Sensei told me to simply let my shoulders drop and be in a relaxed natural posture instead of having them up-tight all the time.
Also, the Karate class has inpsired me to start exercising regularly and to eat healthy. Sensei Pat is a great person and a great friend; she is kind, caring, wise, and a skilled martial artist with integrity. Overall, It has been a blessing to be in the Karate class and I highly recommend it. Hayah!

I started going to ATKA when they added Brazilian Jiujitsu under Sensei Pedro Vianna and I could not be happier. In just a few months I have gained a new level of confidence and motivation that I was certainly lacking. I do not take any of the Karate classes but I have been around the dojo enough to see how much Sensei Pat and Sempei Amy truly care about the students and push them to be better students and better people. I would definitely recommend ATKA to anyone who is interested in learning more about martial arts.

My very shy daughter began training at ATKA while in kindergarten in 2004. She is now a confident, outgoing 10 year old. The atmostphere here is engaging and the children are taught how to apply what they learn to everyday life. In addition to self defense, they learn self motivation, self respect, and accountability. Sensei Pat and the other instructors get to know the students and develop a relationship built on trust. It's amazing to watch how quickly the children advance under their teaching.

American Tiger Karate Academy is the best thing that has happened to my son. He has been studying under Sensei Pat for over 6 years. She has taught him the meaning of respect and discipline. I would highly recommend this Dojo,to anyone who would like to train in the art of Shotikan Karate.

I have two boys joined this Dojo since April 2003 and one daughter joined on September 2004. We love this place. Sensei Pat is definitely good Sensei, she really wants to teach children. Her first priority is teaching to them not getting good business from people.
When Higher Black Belt Sensei comes to our Dojo, said to students “ you are certainly earned your belt”. Because I know many other places just sell the belt.
I am very proud of my children stay and learn from Sensei Pat even they feel training is hard because they know she cares and also knows about importance of characters.

I have been training under Sensei Pat for over ten years. My family and I have learned important life skills and discipline from the different classes this school offers. I would recommend this program to anyone who is looking to learn how to protect themselves, stay healthy and/or be part of a team.
