I got vouchers through living social for both of my young sons. I emailed the school and immediately the President Igor emailed me back and set up for them to go to class the very next day. When we arrived we were greeted by Sensei Jose and immediately he commanded respect from my boys and they gave it, and my husband and I knew that this is what would help them with focus, discipline, and respect for both each other, themselves, and others. We had planned on enrolling them anyway, but the vouchers gave us a chance to check ... read more

D-Dojo is an amazing dojo and I highly recommend it. It is clean, convenient and has many many attributes going for it: 1) Classes almost every day - it can fit anyone s schedule! 2) Incredible instructors - both Jose and Igor are awesome, very knowledgeable and dedicated - definitely the main reason why I keep coming back! 3) Great mix of traditional karate technique, fitness drills, and stretching - you can also undertake sparring (kumite) training as well 4) Friendly and nice classmates - everyone is also keen to help you... read more

It has always been a dream of mine to learn Karate. I was lucky to stumble upon a deal on living social where I was able to participate in boot camp self-defense courses at D-Dojo, The School of Modern Japanese Karate. I was truly impressed with the friendly staff (Igor Dyachenkno, Olga & Jose), cleanliness and aura of the facility. After gradually making it through each sweat dripping workout session, I felt a sense of accomplishment, increase self-esteem, strength and endurance. I was able to lose weight and tone up my bod... read more

d dojo is one of the most technical,inspirational dojos that I have been at. Sensei makes sure that each student is performing at the highest of levels and reaching their true potential. I encourage anyone to come visit and see first hand what the dojo is about and how having karate as a way of life can be fun

If you are serious about learning Karate, D-Dojo is an excellent place to train. The classes provide great workouts (you will be pushed throughout, and soaked by the end), a supportive environment with lots of individual attention, and an uncompromising focus on proper technique. In the four or so years that I've trained here, I've taken group, semi-private, and private lessons and the quality of instruction in all of these environments is superb. Igor Dyachenko, the school's founder and head instructor, is a gifted karateka... read more

D-Dojo is a great place to train karate for adults and children. D-Dojo gives you the highest quality techniques and an extremely unique work out. The class is very serious with a focus on technique as well as conditioning. I was looking for the best karate school for my teenage son who has been training competitive karate in Europe for many years. He already became champion in all of his age groups so it was important to us to join karate school with top instructors. He wanted to continue to train karate on the highest leve... read more

As a long time martial artist, I can say that training at D-Dojo is truly unique. It provides a strong emphasis on tradition, respect and cleanliness while also providing a place for elite level athletes to hone their skills. Joining the D-Dojo will immediately give you a sense of mental focus and you will certainly leave there with an improved state of awareness. Right away you sit down with the sensei and evaluate your goals. Personally what I think is great about the school is the fact you train under a world champion who... read more

Absolutely Fantastic – I've been attending D-Dojo for a year now and the experience has been fantastic. For years I went to the gym as many New Yorkers do but I found those workouts to be boring and found it difficult to stay motivated. I decided to give karate a try and I'm glad I did! Karate is captivating, stimulating and challenging. Sensei Igor is a great teacher of this great discipline. He is attentive to each of his student's capabilities, potential and difficulties. He has great motivation skills, one of his best at... read more
