I started karate lessons with Grand Master - Instructor Nuttall in the mid 70's on North Main; Bob has always encouraged and supported his students to go well beyond their expectations mentality and physically, all the while, learning to respect others and oneself. Bob Nuttall lives by the same principles he inspires in others.
I recommend his training all the time and will continue to do so!

Mr. Nuttall and the other instructors are great! Our two boys have grown into young men under their care learning more than karate, they are learning to be leaders in life.

Karate University is such an amazing place! My 8 and 6yo kids have been attending for about 6 months now. They have so much fun while learning. All of the instructors especially sensei Larry are super friendly, encouraging, and inclusive. They are not only imparting the karate skills but also life lessons (discipline, respect, confidence, focus, etc.) which are going to stay with my kids forever. They customize their teaching style to meet each student's needs & strengths. The staff is wonderful & always checks on us (we love Payton!). Joining KU has been one of the best choices we have made for our family.

My husband and oldest son came here in the early 2000s for karate. We have now since brought our son and daughter. Over the last 9 weeks. We have noticed a change in both our kids. Our son's respect and acknowledgement have blossomed. Our daughter has learned so much. And has created more confidence.

Karate university is awesome! My son absolutely loves the classes and the staff. The coaches are wonderful and Mr. Nuttal and his family are just amazing. They encourage these kids and know each ones individual strengths and weaknesses. They make it fun while also instilling discipline and respect.

Love the place, it's convenient and has everything I need for my fitness goals. Very reasonable.

Theyve been amazing for our son!

The management is unprofessional and they never do what they say they will do. Do you need a copy of your contract? We'll send it soon! Do you need a receipt? We'll give you one soon!
And then corporate calls your phone once a day for a month telling you, you never paid a they're going to charge your card information. I say I paid, they say the school never informed them.
Does this sound professional at all? Or like an unnecessary headache.
I tell this to the manager at the school, who thinks everything is funny and a joke. Says he'll get to it again. And the next few days I continue getting calls saying I still haven't paid.
Are you Kidding me?

EDIT: They fixed it, apologized and made up for it. I'm giving it 5 stars based solely on how much fun my son has, he's 4. I truly love the classes he goes to. Great family men are how I'd describe the teachers, with a positive attitude everyday. People I definitely want my son around. I also have fun just watching him learn. Great school.

My child loves coming here. Mr Nuttall is wonderful with all the kids. Great place for ALL ages. I would highly recommend coming here.

Really an awesome environment. And it's been so helpful for my son.

Bob Nuttall the founder and owner of the karate university has for over 40 years trained community leaders and their families. His skill sets when working with our youth are second to none. You see a difference after their very first class. No other Karate studio gives as much as The Karate University not only to its students but to the community as whole. I and my whole family highly recommend excepting the free week offer and experience personally how The Karate University, Mr. Nuttal, and the whole staff work to make sure you get the most out of the commitment you have made to yourself.

Great experience for our son! Hes learning valuable life lessons and we greatly appreciate all of the patience that the instructors have for our little man!

Great class, very interactive and intense. Would recommend to anyone looking to get into martial arts or continue their current journey.

Master Nuttall is a great teacher. Reinforces leadership skills. Kind to the kids. Such a positive environment.

I great for respect and discipline

Our little girl struggled at home and school with advanced ADHD, this training very quickly helped her learn more focus, leadership and nader control. Her school is full of praise. I am so impressed and happy for her. Great group and one on one training.

Amazing place to bring your children to learn respect, discipline, focus and life skills. Come train with the best in the business and see for yourself.

This place is awesome for kids ,adults, and teens great outlet for respect discipline.

My son has been going to Karate University since he was 4 years old. He is 7 years old now and he loves it. I love that he is not only learning karate but he is learning discipline and respect. I find myself using Mr. Nuttalls teaching tactics at home. It works!

Very impressed with karate university. It has taught my sons self confidence, self control, and leadership. We have been here for about 3 months and I can see a difference in them. Im happy to husband the boys will be in a year from now.

I began participating in Karate classes at TKU in 2001. I have previous martial arts training and wanted to get back into it after many years of inactivity. TKU Instructors are extremely helpful and patient for anyone wishing to learn this style of American Karate. TKU is definitely the place to learn how to defend yourself and to build your self confidence and skills. Grand Master Nuttall still teaches classes from children, teens, through to adult and we always have a great time working out in his classes. Ms Hamilton, who has been teaching at TKU for many years, provides a balanced woman's perspective to martial arts training and holds us to very high standards. Guest instructors will often visit TKU and provide alternate perspectives to our style and training. Hence, the TRUE mixed martial arts (MMA) concept is realized.

From building your self esteem, challenging cardio workouts, learning the kata (dance), to outright sparring techniques - TKU offers the student a well balanced and very validated training opportunity.

Today, I am proud to say that I began as a white belt student, have gone through the arduous training and testing required, and have achieved my black belt. I was certified as a TKU Instructor and now teach at TKU. I am very grateful for the opportunity to show other students the excitement of this thing we call..... martial arts.

Mr. Roy -- Instructor, 3rd Degree Black Belt

Great experience!! Eric is the best and made my kids feel welcome and they are STILL talking about what a great time they had! Thanks!

TKU & Mr. Nuttall have made such an impact on my 6 year olds attitude, self-responsibility and respect & manners toward others. I highly recommend any parent give this a try.

My son is learning karate and manners and also becoming a public speaker!!!

Great place to hangout and enjoy exercise while learning form, focus and discipline :)

My daughter started several months ago and she absolutely loves it. She is more focused, more respectful and truly learns in each class and applies everything she learns. Its both physical and mental and its been the best investment ever. Bob is like a child whispering and all the instructors are so good at teaching kids at every level and any age!

We like and enjoy this place. Our daughter is learning a lot of principles and confidence that she can use in real life situations. This place is worth recommending!

My boys love karate with Mr Nuttall. I have enjoyed watching them learn and grow! I would definitely recommend joining the classes! The whole staff (especially Eric) are amazing and welcoming!

My two boys have been going for about 6 months now. They have both grown so much. The respect and discipline they are taught has been amazing. Highly recommend. Helpful staff and great patient instructors.

I am a student at TKU and it is a great experience over all. I have had a lot of fun at TKU

Awesome place!!!

Watching Mr. Nuttall work with these kids is amazing. You can see his passion for helping these children be their very best! These kids learn more about respect and discipline in this program than they will get ANYWHERE!!!

Master Nutall is great with the kids. We love bringing our daughter here!

Master Nutall is awesome with all kids of all ages. Great for teaching the kids about self confidence and respect for others. Teaches them self control and how to defend themselves.

The karate university is amazing.

It really helps that all of the staff are friendly and inviting.
The staff go above and beyond to make the experience fun while teaching respect and discipline.

This place is great my kids love it.everyone is very friendly and helpful. My kids have learn somuch in just a few short months.

My 5 year old son has been doing karate here for about 18 months. It has been a great experience and all the instructors are great, especially Mr. Nuttall. Highly recommend.

My oldest daughter has been going here for four years now. My youngest daughter just started and shes having tons of fun learning. We love all the instructors. They have helped tremendously.

Great place for kids to learn RESPECT, and self defense. Master Nuttall is awesome with the kids.

Highly recommend! My daughter absolutely loves it!

I love watching my children learn and grow in their confidence and skills, that are been taught by Mr. Nuttall.

Our son who has autism has made a lot of personal improvements at TKU. He has become more confident and has learned a lot of respect along with coordination improvements. Mr. Nuttall is a wonderful instructor and the staff is very caring.

If you want your child to have respect, good morals, and have confidence in themselves.......this is the place to go.

We have three enrolled at Karate University. We have a 8 year old girl, 10 year old boy, and a 13 year old boy. All have improved in their respect and discipline. The Karate University has a great program that continues to push/ encourage leadership! I love how much improvement in public speaking our children have accomplished through the karate program. The Karate program is a great investment in training your children to be leaders!

Our 11yo loves Mr. Nuttall & his excellent communication with the kids. They're learning respect that only an instructor can teach. Her focus has drastically improved.

Our daughter has loved it since day 1. She is 11 and has been here since February. Mr. Nuttall gets there attention and keeps it. She has learned a lot.

Very friendly environment. Mr. Nuttall is wonderful with children, my kids loves him. I highly recommend this place!

Great for kids! My kids have really impressed me with how much they can focus and pay attention!!!

The instructors obviously care. My 6 year old daughters confidence is off the charts. Shes a yellow belt working on her orange belt. Shes getting stronger with the workouts which help with strength in gymnastics and soccer. I also love hearing my sweetie say yes, sir and yes, maam. As promised, shes learning to be respectful and disciplined. We love The Karate University.

I have no doubt that the karate University is going to make men out of these boys. What a wonderful place and they enjoy it.

So glad we found this place. I am enjoying watching my shy teen come out of his shell. They understand his limitations. while still pushing him to do all he can do. Plus teaching him defense and respect amd values. Thank you all for what you do.

This place is amazing. Our grandson is showing signs of improvement after the first class. Manners, respect, and responsibility for yourself. I love how the class is taught, and the disiplines for life that are being instilled in these children.

Wonderful instructors. Positive environment

Great Karate family!

I have 4 grandchildren enrolled at The Karate University, as well as myself. Respect, discipline and attitude are re-enforced in every class, because of this, their confidence level and self esteem is has gone through the roof. Their respectful manners have grown and are more polite than ever before. As for me, I weighed 228 lbs. when I joined, I'm at 206 now. Not much else I can say, this alone has made a difference in my life. THANK YOU MR. NUTTALL & INSTRUCTORS!

My kids have been coming here just a few months, and I can see a huge difference in my sons self esteem and confidence. Even my other family member have commented on how karate has made him more confident and talkative. This isn't just karate, its instilling manners and exposing them to speaking in front of others, learning to speak up, and building courage and leadership skills. I highly recommend giving the university a call and trying it out.

Really great instructors. My kiddo just started, and the class is great. Emphasizes respect, movements, and they really assist the new kids coming in.

I absolutely love this place! It has helped with my son's attitude, energy, and he can focus so much more now! His teachers are so calm and I've never seen ANY of them lose their temper! The staff is awesome and willing to answer any question you have! Definitely recommed enrolling yourself or your kid(s)

Great karate classes that allow us to workout why our children are learning self defense. The instructors also teach basic manners like saying "sir or ma'am" which is an added bonus.

We love Karate University!

We love all of the Masters here! My daughter is blossoming and growing so much. Her self control and the amount of respect that grows with each class is worth every penny.

My daughter loves Karate class! Absolutely the BEST instructors!

The Karate University has taught my child life skills, responsibility and respect. Self defense skills are important but the life skills they teach is exactly what every child needs to learn.

This is a fantastic karate school. The instructors are kind and patient with really young students, while still maintaining the high standards that make their program exceptional. I have two kids taking classes, ages 7 and 5, and they are learn so much more than just a martial art. They are learning focus, public speaking, leadership, and respect. Truly a phenomenal school. Highly recommended!

**Update**
Both of my children have achieved orange belt. Mr. Nuttal had been away when we first started, and we had no idea what we were missing until he returned! I am so blown away at how quickly my children are progressing.

My 10 yr son has been enrolled for just a short while and is progressing fast in all areas. His confidence, respect, discipline and determination have skyrocketed since joining, he looks forward to it, even when he knows it is a challenge sometimes, and takes it serious. He focuses in class and uses his newly learned skills in all aspects of his life, at home and when out in public. He has become noticeably more patient as well with younger siblings/children, teenage siblings and busy parents alike . He always is the first to volunteer and help others. Bob Nuttall , Mr. Galindo and Mr. Galligos have been wonderful teachers and the rest of the staff are very friendly and helpful to our whole family and we look forward to our lessons each day. We also look forward to spending years training at this facility. Thank you !

They have helped my son become more respectful. His hand eye coordination has become great. This is coming from the parent of a 4 year old. He has become very respectful of the people around him in a very short time.

My son loves going to the Karate University. He has shown improvement in his confidence, respect, and discipline. Very glad we were recommended to come here.

Great Karate family!

Wonderful instructors. Positive environment

Our son wanted to take karate and there was no question where we would take him. The Karate University has been serving Parker County for many years. Grand Master Bob Nuttall not only teaches karate but he also teaches respect and leadership. Good stuff!

Mr. Nuttall is amazing with the kids. They learn respect, discipline, form and always ends classes with hugs! Great foundation for whatever else your kids want to do. He encourages good grades and behavior, and has an awesome rapport with his students.

My 4 year old son started almost a year ago and he has grown so much! The teachers are amazing and really care about the students and their progress.

The teachers are amazing. My son has grown and matured so much and has such a good time I decided to join too. The teachers really care about teaching and helping the students!

We love Karate University! Our son has grown so much in his confidence and self esteem since beginning karate. Mr. Nuttel truly cares for our son, his growth, character and even his grades with school work and we're so grateful for his influence.

TKU has been wonderful for our daughter!

So patient with the young ones and my grandson has made great progress!

My son has significant physical and medical issues, and a diagnosis of ADHD. We had heard great things about Mr. Nuttall and Karate University. He's been attending classes for almost 9 months, and loves it! They are so patient with him, and we've seen improvements in his discipline, and balance. This place is truly a blessing!

I started karate lessons with Grand Master - Instructor Nuttall in the mid 70's on North Main; Bob has always encouraged and supported his students to go well beyond their expectations mentality and physically, all the while, learning to respect others and oneself.

Mr. Nuttall and the other instructors are great! Our two boys have grown into young men under their care learning more than karate, they are learning to be leaders in life.

Mr. Nuttall and staff are wonderful with the kids! From our 1st visit I knew this would be a good experience for our boys, ages 5 and 8. Respect and self discipline along with life lessons are taught along the way.

My son has enjoyed classes and has learned so much. His confidence and manners have even improved.

Great experience! My boys have learned much discipline and respect. Helpful and friendly support staff

Mr. Nuttall and staff are great with my grandson. Aiden has learned much discipline and respect.

My kids LOVE this place. It's like having a whole other family. I personally love the complete attitude change in my children.

This place is awesome! My 4 year old loves coming to class and all of the staff is very friendly and helpful.

My son loves coming to class here. Mr Nuttall is a fantastic instructor and helps teach my son some great life lessons. Friendly staff and clean facility.

My 10 year old grandson was suffering badly from an agressive bully at school. He was at the end of his rope when I enrolled him in the Karate University. After three weeks of training under Grandmaster Nuttal, he found the courage to stand up to his bully and made him back down with nothing more than resolve and a blocked punch.
Thank you.

Awesome place and staff.

Fantastic learning experience in martial arts for all ages.

Really an awesome environment. And it's been so helpful for my son.

Master Nuttall has given over 40 years to the community. His dedication is second to none coupled with having classes 7 days a week the Karate University can fit anyone's schedule.

The Karate University is creating leaders for the future.

The Karate University is the best in the business owned operated by the same man since 1972 Mr. Bob Nuttall. The programs that are offered are above and beyond any other place I have ever seen and you will see results after just one class.

Bob Nuttall the founder and owner of the karate university has for over 40 years trained community leaders and their families. His skill sets when working with our youth are second to none.

Mr Nuttall and the whole group is absolutely amazing. My son loves karate and looks foreword to coming each week!

My son didnt want to do it at first, after many intents in getting him to do a sport he just didnt find one he could stick with. Brought him in for a trial class and he still wasnt convinced but I signed him up regardless, not only for the physical part of it but for the mental part of it. It hasnt been a full month yet and I am seeing great improvement. Now he cant wait to go to karate and his manners and listening skills are much better!!!! It is a win win!! The staff if also great! I always feel welcomed by everyone.

I love this place. They are patient with me and my daughter. Everyone is friendly and the instruction is top notch.

Great class, very interactive and intense. Would recommend to anyone looking to get into martial arts or continue their current journey.

Shes getting stronger with the workouts which help with strength in gymnastics and soccer. I also love hearing my sweetie say yes, sir and yes, maam. As promised, shes learning to be respectful and disciplined. We love The Karate University.

I have no doubt that the karate University is going to make men out of these boys. What a wonderful place and they enjoy it.

So glad we found this place. I am enjoying watching my shy teen come out of his shell. They understand his limitations. while still pushing him to do all he can do. Plus teaching him defense and respect amd values. Thank you all for what you do.

This place is amazing. Our grandson is showing signs of improvement after the first class. Manners, respect, and responsibility for yourself. I love how the class is taught, and the disiplines for life that are being instilled in these children.

My oldest daughter has been going here for four years now. My youngest daughter just started and she’s having tons of fun learning. We love all the instructors. They have helped tremendously.

My boys 6 & 11 love TKU! They teach more then self defense they teach them respect and honor! The staff is awesome!

Our daughter has loved it since day 1. She is 11 and has been here since February. Mr. Nuttall gets there attention and keeps it. She has learned a lot.

Very friendly environment. Mr. Nuttall is wonderful with children, my kids loves him. I highly recommend this place!

Our 11yo loves Mr. Nuttall & his excellent communication with the kids. They're learning respect that only an instructor can teach. Her focus has drastically improved.

We have three enrolled at Karate University. We have a 8 year old girl, 10 year old boy, and a 13 year old boy. All have improved in their respect and discipline. The Karate University has a great program that continues to push/ encourage leadership! I love how much improvement in public speaking our children have accomplished through the karate program. The Karate program is a great investment in training your children to be leaders!

I love watching my children learn and grow in their confidence and skills, that are been taught by Mr. Nuttall.

This place is great my kids love it.everyone is very friendly and helpful. My kids have learn somuch in just a few short months.

My 5 year old son has been doing karate here for about 18 months. It has been a great experience and all the instructors are great, especially Mr. Nuttall. Highly recommend.

Master Nutall is great with the kids. We love bringing our daughter here!

Watching Mr. Nuttall work with these kids is amazing. You can see his passion for helping these children be their very best! These kids learn more about respect and discipline in this program than they will get ANYWHERE!!!

Master Nutall is awesome with all kids of all ages. Great for teaching the kids about self confidence and respect for others. Teaches them self control and how to defend themselves.

My child loves coming here. Mr Nuttall is wonderful with all the kids. Great place for ALL ages. I would highly recommend coming here.

The karate university is amazing.
My kids started almost 2 months ago and i see the improvement in both of my boys.
It really helps that all of the staff are friendly and inviting.
The staff go above and beyond to make the experience fun while teaching respect and discipline.

Awesome place with great staff. Mr.Nuttall is a great instructor. My son looks forward to Karate every week and that makes me happy. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone.

My boys love karate with Mr Nuttall. I have enjoyed watching them learn and grow! I would definitely recommend joining the classes! The whole staff (especially Eric) are amazing and welcoming!

My two boys have been going for about 6 months now. They have both grown so much. The respect and discipline they are taught has been amazing. Highly recommend. Helpful staff and great patient instructors.

We like and enjoy this place. Our daughter is learning a lot of principles and confidence that she can use in real life situations. This place is worth recommending!

My daughter started several months ago and she absolutely loves it. She is more focused, more respectful and truly learns in each class and applies everything she learns. It’s both physical and mental and it’s been the best investment ever. Bob is like a child whispering and all the instructors are so good at teaching kids at every level and any age!

TKU & Mr. Nuttall have made such an impact on my 6 year old’s attitude, self-responsibility and respect & manners toward others. I highly recommend any parent give this a try.

Great experience!! Eric is the best and made my kids feel welcome and they are STILL talking about what a great time they had! Thanks!

I began participating in Karate classes at TKU in 2001. I have previous martial arts training and wanted to get back into it after many years of inactivity. TKU Instructors are extremely helpful and patient for anyone wishing to learn this style of American Karate. TKU is definitely the place to learn how to defend yourself and to build your self confidence and skills. Grand Master Nuttall still teaches classes from children, teens, through to adult and we always have a great time working out in his classes. Ms Hamilton, who has been teaching at TKU for many years, provides a balanced woman's perspective to martial arts training and holds us to very high standards. Guest instructors will often visit TKU and provide alternate perspectives to our style and training. Hence, the TRUE mixed martial arts (MMA) concept is realized.

From building your self esteem, challenging cardio workouts, learning the kata (dance), to outright sparring techniques - TKU offers the student a well balanced and very validated training opportunity.

Today, I am proud to say that I began as a white belt student, have gone through the arduous training and testing required, and have achieved my black belt. I was certified as a TKU Instructor and now teach at TKU. I am very grateful for the opportunity to show other students the excitement of this thing we call..... martial arts.

Mr. Roy -- Instructor, 3rd Degree Black Belt

This place is awesome for kids ,adults, and teens great outlet for respect discipline.

Amazing place to bring your children to learn respect, discipline, focus and life skills. Come train with the best in the business and see for yourself.

My son has been going to Karate University since he was 4 years old. He is 7 years old now and he loves it. I love that he is not only learning karate but he is learning discipline and respect. I find myself using Mr. Nuttall’s teaching tactics at home. It works!

Very impressed with karate university. It has taught my sons self confidence, self control, and leadership. We have been here for about 3 months and I can see a difference in them. I’m happy to husband the boys will be in a year from now.

Our little girl struggled at home and school with advanced ADHD, this training very quickly helped her learn more focus, leadership and nader control. Her school is full of praise. I am so impressed and happy for her. Great group and one on one training.

I great for respect and discipline

Master Nuttall is a great teacher. Reinforces leadership skills. Kind to the kids. Such a positive environment.

Great class, very interactive and intense. Would recommend to anyone looking to get into martial arts or continue their current journey.

I have adobe who is so strong willed and started getting in a lot of trouble this last year in school. Since he started at The Karate University his grades came up, he started respecting more, and the trouble stopped at school. It’s a very good program for anyone.

Instructors and staff are very professional and patient. My daughter is extremely excited to be starting karate with The Karate University! It makes my heart happy to see her so focused in class and excited to learn. Looking forward to seeing her grow and mature in so many ways!

After day 1 of bringing my son here, he was without a doubt changed, it’s like his mind set just flipped, we love it here! anyone that needs to set there child on a path of greatness, and success, as well as disipline and positive direction, physical strength and motivation then this is the place! Thank you to Mr. Bob Nuttall and all of the instructors! All of you do truly remarkable job, which definitely speaks for itself in every individual child, teen and adult!

Great place with great instructors!

Great instruction-it’s been a blessing for my son!

Nuttall, the other instructors, and staff are awesome. If you want to see a change in children you will love the Karate University.

I have noticed a difference in my son at home in regards to focus, discipline and respect and he’s only gone to two classes! He’s ADHD and this program has been a God send! I’m so thankful and I’m getting my other son enrolled next week!

We love The Karate University!

So far has been a great program, my son loves it and looks forward to it. If you do their Blackbelt club the schedule is super flexible...

Bob N. used to Train with the Chuck Norris and live to talk about it so that’s all there is to it

My son has really shown a lot of improvement in this program. Bob Nuttall does a really good job with the kids. Very impressed!

Great experience for our son! He’s learning valuable life lessons and we greatly appreciate all of the patience that the instructors have for our little man!

Kaden has been having so many problems at school and he had his first exceptional day today. He is so proud to be part of something and he’s very focused on using his manners and being respectful.

When my twins started at the University I was at my wits ends. Single with 5 year twins at age 54 is hard work. That is when their school teacher suggested I start them in some kind of after school activity, that is when I stumbled upon the TKU. The Twins will be 9 in July and have turned into little adults that focus most of the time but are still kids and make mistakes. They are green belts now and in Grand Master Bob Nuttell's intermediate class.

My 6 year old son attends The Karate University. I can’t say enough good things about the classes or the instructors. He has gained confidence, self esteem, and discipline. He lights up when class starts and has learned so much about karate. He’s also learned some pretty great life lessons here too.

Great place for kids to learn manners and life lessons while being active! Our 5 year old son loves it.

The instructors are very polite and patient with my son. He has difficulty with attention and staying still and he’s been having a hard time in school with discipline. These gentlemen get down on his level and talk to him calmly and teach him how he can do better and they help him with eye contact, which he has a very hard time with. They are very respectful of all the children here and they are very attentive. I am very glad we took the step to put him in this program.

The instructors are just absolutely amazing ! They have so much patience with the kids, they are constantly encouraging and teaching amazing qualities. Self respect and self discipline are amazing. They work with the parents who are having a hard time with the kids.

The instructors are super Amazing with the kids mentally and physically, they take the time to make sure the kids are learning. They stay supported of the kids and let them know it's ok to make a mistake but that they have to try their best. Bob Nuttal is amazing , I love this place.

The karate university has been such a blessing to my and my son. Bob & Eric have come together to help me re direct and raise a fine young man! We are here Monday thru Thursday and look forward to karate daily!

Love everyone here!! Great workers and team!! Amazing with the kids!! Been amazing for my son!!

This place is saving my sanity!! My son is learning to focus, STAY still and use YES SIR NO SIR/MAAM.
Super friendly environment that encourages not only the kids but the parents too! The process to sign up is easy and having class every day for my son keeps him busy! I love structure and this give it to us.
Highly recommend!!!!

We’ve had a wonderful experience so far! Our son loves the classes, and we love the discipline! We look forward to many more years of classes and education at the Karate University!

Not only are the instructors great, the kids love it. They not only learn karate, but discipline and respect! It’s been a great experience for us so far.

Absolutely love what TKU has done for my son. I am amazed at the accountability he is learning. I have noticed a wonderful difference in his school work and self discipline. Thank y’all for everything you do for our communities kids!

I love this place. They are patient with me and my daughter. Everyone is friendly and the instruction is top notch.

My son didn’t want to do it at first, after many intents in getting him to do a sport he just didnt find one he could stick with. Brought him in for a trial class and he still wasn’t convinced but I signed him up regardless, not only for the physical part of it but for the mental part of it. It hasn’t been a full month yet and I am seeing great improvement. Now he can’t wait to go to karate and his manners and listening skills are much better!!!! It is a win win!! The staff if also great! I always feel welcomed by everyone.

Mr Nuttall and the whole group is absolutely amazing. My son loves karate and looks foreword to coming each week!

Yesterday I completed a Women’s Self Defense class at Karate University. WOW!! It was a Great class and so empowering! Bob Is a wonderful instructor. I recommend every woman to take this class. Learn how to defend yourself and stay safe. Don’t be a Victim! Learn easy moves that any ages can do and learn to be more aware. I feel so much more confident in myself. Thank You Karate University.
Karate University has a great learning atmosphere and Great instructors!!

This place is amazing! Everyone is very helpful and my son is changing even after 2 classes!

The Karate University is the best in the business owned operated by the same man since 1972 Mr. Bob Nuttall. The programs that are offered are above and beyond any other place I have ever seen and you will see results after just one class.

Excellent martial arts school.
Good facility and knowledgeable blackbelt instructors.

Master Nuttall has given over 40 years to the community. His dedication is second to none coupled with having classes 7 days a week the Karate University can fit anyone's schedule.

The Karate University is creating leaders for the future.

The management is unprofessional and they never do what they say they will do. Do you need a copy of your contract? We'll send it soon! Do you need a receipt? We'll give you one soon!
And then corporate calls your phone once a day for a month telling you, you never paid a they're going to charge your card information. I say I paid, they say the school never informed them.
Does this sound professional at all? Or like an unnecessary headache.
I tell this to the manager at the school, who thinks everything is funny and a joke. Says he'll get to it again. And the next few days I continue getting calls saying I still haven't paid.
Are you Kidding me?

EDIT: They fixed it, apologized and made up for it. I'm giving it 5 stars based solely on how much fun my son has, he's 4. I truly love the classes he goes to. Great family men are how I'd describe the teachers, with a positive attitude everyday. People I definitely want my son around. I also have fun just watching him learn. Great school.

Bob Nuttall the founder and owner of the karate university has for over 40 years trained community leaders and their families. His skill sets when working with our youth are second to none. You see a difference after their very first class. No other Karate studio gives as much as The Karate University not only to its students but to the community as whole. I and my whole family highly recommend excepting the free week offer and experience personally how The Karate University, Mr. Nuttal, and the whole staff work to make sure you get the most out of the commitment you have made to yourself.

If you want your child to learn respect, self-discipline, and focus, this is the perfect place to be. The Karate University cares about your child being a successful and responsible individual. My son has been here for a week, and he loves it! I also see better behavior at home, so I definitely can’t complain.

The way the karate university works with kids is nothing short of a great group therapy for kiddos with lack of attention, disciplinary and self-esteem. They send the message of you are responsible for your actions and nobody else. Keep up the great work!!!!

Great staff and great classes! I really like how they will personally work on a problem with your child.

Cimmaron loves it here. ??????????????????????????

Some may call me biased as I have known Grandmaster Nuttall pretty much my whole life. But....the fact remains that The Karate University is amazing for kids. Yes adults learn self defense etc also....but watch one class and you can see that Grandmaster Nuttall's passion is teaching kids. And the bottom line is he gets positive results....not just during karate class but in all areas of their lives. He gets these results by showing them respect and building them up. My d...

My son has been coming here for about a month. I have seen a change in his attitude and self-esteem. He has just received his gold belt
He was so happy to get it. GM Nuttall is great with the kids. Very satisfied

I couldn't ask for a better place for kids to get structure and positive guidance. Bob Nuttall and Eric Cooper are two of the finest men I have the honor of knowing and I enjoy watching them interact with kids. This karate University is by far the best place you could take your children and teach them how to become productive adults as they grow. I have watched them make some amazing changes with kids and I love the fact that these men want to help people and are not about the money.... I highly recommend this place....keep up the good work guys!!!!

For 4 plus decades Master Nuttall has given to the community a service that is priceless. The Karate University is and has been the top shelf studio for Respect, Self Esteem, Character Building, and living a strong healthy lifestyle. Simply thinking about something never gets it done. It takes action.

Phenomenal school! Great way for you to learn discipline and self-esteem.

Bt far the best I have ever witnessed. The programs they have for youth as well as adults are #1. Clean, professional, and classes 7 days a week.

The place, the people, the environment, are absolutely amazing! It's not just regular karate classes. Bob Nuttall and the others have helped my son so much already! It's a daily reminder for my son and myself to be the person you know you can be. My son is gaining so much confidence and learning respect. And the changes I've seen happen so fast. I'm so proud of him, and even better, he's proud of himself. It's not just showing up to class and practicing, it's a lesson on being a leader and aiming for success. And it's taught so well here. Bob Nuttall is truly the best role model, and the best teacher for my son.

Home town owned, home town operated by one of Weatherford Texas' leaders. Great mentor for the young and old alike!! Well done !!

Mr. Nuttall is wonderful! My son loves him and all of his staff as well. You become part of an awesome family when you come here!

I love The Karate University! It's great for kids to learn self-defense, respect, and self respect.

My family loves this place. Our boys have learned karate and so much more. They've come out of their shells and have shown so much growth. Mr Nuttall and the other instructors are wonderful with the children. I always say I love to go watch because of the motivational speaking from Mr Nuttall.

Great for the kids and the instructors are great with the kids! Love it!

If you want results such as... Respect, Discipline,Attitude,and self esteem. This school is for you! Studied American Karate there from 5yrs old -13yrs old,and still use what I learned there today. Such an impressive school with tremendous amounts of certified instructors. Very family oriented. Mr. Nuttall gives nothing but the best! I know you'll enjoy! 10 ? to me!!!

We have only been to one class so far and my son is already more respectful ! He was in tears because he didn’t want to try karate at all. However, Mr. Nutall was incredible and made our son feel so comfortable, that by the end of class, he couldn’t wait to go back! :) We are looking forward to more classes!

My son loves it. It has boosted his confidence and has made him a more disciplined person.

I love it there! My teachers are great. Everyone is very nice and helpful.

Love the instructors and the staff. Very friendly, great with kids and always ready to help. Highly recommend The Karate University.

My son and I had our first class last night an no questions asked we signed up ! Everyone here is very knowledgable an take the time to actually show you the techniques step by step as well as why you are doing something. My son loves it and can't wait to come back as well.
