About Allan Azoff’s Martial Arts Academy
Teaching Traditional Okinawan Karate Since 1995
At Allan Azoff’s Martial Arts Academy, we offer professional, full-time karate instruction six days a week for kids, teens, and adults of all levels. We teach Uechi Ryu Karate, a traditional Okinawan martial art focused on self-defense, speed, and technique over strength—making it accessible for everyone.
For Kids
Our children’s program builds more than martial arts skills. Kids gain confidence, focus, discipline, and social skills while staying active and having fun.
For Adults
Adult students train in the same style with a focus on fitness, self-defense, and stress relief. It’s a powerful way to sharpen your body and clear your mind.
What to Expect
Every class includes katas (forms), partner drills, techniques, and equipment work—offering a complete, enjoyable martial arts experience.
