Houston karate tournaments

Sensei Alex encourages his Olympic Karate and Sports Center Houston students to travel outside of Meyerland in southwest Houston to tournaments held around the Bayou City and Texas. Don’t worry, these Houston karate competitions are not like the All Valley tournament in Netflix’s hit Cobra Kai! Students get a chance to demonstrate their kata or sparring outside of the dojo and even win medals!

Houston karate competitions

Olympic Karate and Sport Center is located in southwest Houston’s Meyerland neighborhood at the east end of the historic Maplewood Mall. We are on the Pontiac Drive side of the the shopping center. If you go to Hillcroft Avenue, you’ve gone too far! 5625 Beechnut St, Houston, TX 77096

We offer various payment and contract options for our Houston karate classes.

What we need from our karate students is the desire to be there and take instruction.

Shotokan is a style of karate taken from Japanese martial arts. READ MORE

Houston karate student reviews

I have been training here for 9 months. I was specially looking for a school to learn WKF style Sparring.

- Roland & Angel Thomas

By far the best dojo here in Texas, Sensei Alex has pushed me beyond my limits to become the best Karate fighter I have ever been, inside the dojo and out.

- Joey Allen

Sensei Alex is a fantastic instructor and patient with the kids. My son has a lot of respect for him and loves coming to class.

- Krista Darden Lancton

Alex’s teaching style is very mature. By that I mean his style does not involve shaming or unreasonable expectations but rather calm and persistent coaching in the pursuit of improving Kihon and Kata.
