The memory of almost missing out on Karate is exactly why OCKC operates differently than the rest of the industry. I am a martial artist, not a salesperson. I’ve seen the “standard” business practices—up front costs, pay for promotion, hidden fees, and iron-clad contracts—and I’ve chosen to leave them behind.
We believe in radical transparency. You’ll notice something rare on our website: our membership prices are public. I have looked at every other dojo in the area, and I can’t find a single one that posts their rates online. We do it because we have nothing to hide and we want you to have all the information you need upfront.
When you walk through our doors, you won’t be pestered or pressured to sign a contract. In fact, we don’t have contracts at all. Our philosophy is simple: No initiation fees, no cancellation fees, and no long-term commitments. I believe that if I do my job correctly and share my love for Karate effectively, I won’t need to chase you down—your child will be the one pestering you to get back on the mat for the next class.
