Book your free trial class

You don't need any experience, any equipment, or any idea what to expect. Just show up — we'll take care of everything else. Parents are welcome to watch from the sidelines, and we'll answer every question you have after class.

What to expect

01

Arrive a few minutes early

Give yourself time to meet the instructors and get oriented. We start every newcomer with focused, one-on-one attention before you join the group.
02

Wear comfortable clothes

Athletic shorts or sweatpants and a t-shirt are perfect — no uniform needed for your trial. We train in bare feet on the mat.
03

Experience a real class

You'll get a genuine taste of Kanzen Goju-Ryu — technique, discipline, and respect. Parents are welcome to watch from the waiting area.

100% free. Zero pressure.

This isn't a sales pitch with a mat class attached. It's a real class where you (or your child) gets to experience what we do every day. If it's not the right fit, we'll be the first to say so.

"It's a traditional Goju Ryu karate school that teaches you the classic techniques while practicing contact sparring safely. The instructors have been training here for decades and are passionate about every student. I've built strength, stamina, flexibility, memory, and self-discipline here — and it's paid off in every part of my life."

— Tanay Gavankar, Student since 2001

"Kanzen changed the whole direction of my life. I went from a 20-year-old with no direction to a successful attorney running my own law firm for 23 years. At 60, I'm still training — applying the principles of classical karate to everyday life, whether work, family, or friends. The more you put into it, the more you get out of it."

— Keith Leshine, Student since age 20

"The instruction here has literally turned my life around. With the tough-love of Shihan Sheinwald and all the instructors, I have a new lease on life. I hold my head high, with confidence and discipline in every part of my life."

— Scott Shore, Adult student, Marlboro

"The instructors are incredibly patient, disciplined, and supportive. We've seen such a positive change in our son's confidence, focus, and respect both on and off the mat. The environment is welcoming, motivating, and feels like a true family."

— Mario Porr, Parent

"If you're looking for a karate place for your child (or yourself) this is the real deal! 30 years ago I took classes at Kanzen and got my Black Belt. It gave me self-confidence, got me in shape and created a strong foundation for the rest of my life. Now my 12-year-old son and I train together — and it was still less than what I was paying elsewhere for just one child."

— Richard G., Parent & former student

"While learning the comprehensive karate curriculum and strengthening my 73 year old body, I enjoy the feeling of clearing my mind of everything else for those few hours. The instructors are knowledgeable and passionate about maintaining the legacy of traditional martial arts."

— Jack Fajerman, Adult student

"I have been with Kanzen Goju Ryu for 24 years, since I am 4 years old. I credit Kanzen for me being where I am today. It has instilled in me focus, confidence, discipline, among many other traits. I highly recommend for all ages."

— Justin Sheinwald, Student for 24 years

"I have known Donny for years and can confidently say he's one of the most hard working, dedicated people I know. I joke with him by calling him a ninja because of how highly skilled he is in martial arts. Anyone learning from him is in great hands."

— Eric Sandowsky

"Kanzen Gojuryu is a life changing karate dojo that doesn't just improve yourself in self defense, but in so many other aspects in life even outside of the dojo. The sensei's at the dojo have dedicated their lives to karate."

— Richard Garrell, Student

"From the beginning Kanzen Goju makes sure you learn the proper ways and techniques to use in your own way. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to study under the best sensei I have had the opportunity to be a part of."

— Rich Kallman, Student
