rajat sirohiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Coach Syed is an amazing Karate instructor whose passion and dedication shine through in every class. He creates a fun and motivating environment where students are encouraged to do their best while learning discipline and respect for the art. He and his team are always kind and helpful—even with the little things, like helping my daughter tie her belt each time. Since we started with Coach Syed, my daughter doesn’t want to train anywhere else. He’s truly an inspiration! I can’t wait for my son to turn six and start training with him too.

I think it’s definitely a good opportunity for kids to learn self defence, discipline and get confidence to handle any unwarranted situations that may arise. Learning self defence is a life skill for everyone and I personally felt the positive change, enthusiasm and enjoyment in my child to get trained professionally by the experienced trainers at LBKI. Wish them great success in what they endeavoured to do. Saadia SehrishTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing karate club!
