Karate/Tae Kwon Do? (Nazareth: moving to, studio, location)

[mczabe]

Does anyone have a karate/tae kwon do studio they would recommend? Any particular instructor? I am willing to travel a bit for a good program, so feel free to recommend anything in the overall area.

Ideally, I'm looking for a small dojo (sp?) with a program for young children, that is neither too harsh nor too watered down. A family based studio would be great...my daughter is currently taking a "karate" class at the local Little Gym, and while it's tons of fun - it just ain't the same as a true karate program.

NOT looking for a super-competitive, "fight"-based place - just a focus on overall well-being and discipline in a loving environment.

Any ideas????

Thanks in advance!

I would highly recommend Action Karate Nazareth. Their program is just wonderful. It has completely brought my son out of his shell and is just so much fun - he often asks to go to karate on "off" nights LOL

Very family oriented atmosphere. Currently they are located on Route 191 in Nazareth near Giant but soon will be moving to a much larger/nicer location 2 miles away from there.

Here is the website: Action Karate in Nazareth, PA
If you do visit there, ask for the free uniform/free month of classes promotion, I am sure they are still running that.

Karen - Thanks so much! I've actually driven past that place and wondered if it was good. Sounds a lot like where my daughter used to go. Definitely going to check into the free promo - I think a lot of places offer those...

Thanks again!
