If you have a question that is not addressed here, please feel free to contact me.

Where is the class located?

• Class meets in the main sanctuary at Del Rey Church, conveniently located at 8505 Saran Drive, Playa Del Rey, CA 90293, just 5 minutes from LAX and the 90 Marina Freeway. Click here for a map. There is ample free parking in the lot, and the facility is fully air conditioned with bathrooms and drinking water. And the pastor is also a VK member!

When do you have class?

• Class is Wednesday night. VKfit, which is open to both VKfit and Victory Karate members, starts at 7:15pm and wraps up by 7:45pm. The VKfit members are then excused, and the Victory Karate class then proceeds afterwards until 9:00pm. For Victory Karate, we also have field trips, seminars, and guest instructors, which might alter class meeting times and locations. We are off on the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, the Wednesday between Christmas and New Year's Day, and any holidays that might fall on a Wednesday.

What is VKfit?

• VKfit is a fitness program that utilizes the all-body workout and conditioning program used by Victory Karate. It is a 5-30 minute workout combining the experience of 2 Black Belt world titles and over 20 years of coaching and training martial arts, CrossFit protocols, core training, plyometrics, pilates, gymnastics, as well as conditioning drills used by the US Military Special Forces, city and state law enforcement, MMA/UFC trainers, and collegiate and professional level athletic coaches and trainers. The focus is on constantly improving your fitness, whether you are a professional athlete, or a total sedentary person who has never done anything physical. There is a VKfit class, as well as VKfit Private Training available. The class meets weekly as described above and focuses on using bodyweight for metabolic conditioning. VKfit Private Training meets up to 2 times per week in a private gym faciliy and also focuses on strength training. There is also a members only blog which features suggested Workouts of the Week [WOWs] and a special comment section where you can post your results and track your progress (still in development).

I've never taken karate or done anything physical before. Can I still join?

• Yes! But here's the disclaimer: This is NOT a franchise business for the masses. This is a privately-run, championship-caliber program. The workouts are highly rigorous and demanding. Not everyone has the work ethic, desire, or capacity to do what we do. This is what separates us from the commercial karate business down the street. This doesn't mean that everyone has to be a world-class athlete to participate. In fact, your commitment to train and constantly improve is far more important than any physical abilities (Though a good sense of humor certainly helps). Yes, beginners are welcome. But only those who "fit" will be invited and accepted to train with us. The workout and curriculum both quickly weed out those who lack the commitment to make themselves and those around them the best they can be (iron sharpens iron).

Can I really learn karate with class only meeting once a week?

• Yes! Read here for more info.

I can't make it to the class time, but I would still like to train. Is private training available?

• Yes! Contact the instructor for more info.

How much do you charge for your classes? for private training?

• Go here to read and fill out the disclosure agreement, then agree to the terms and click through to see the various class & private training membership programs for both VKfit and Victory Karate.

How do I know if I'd be a good candidate for Victory Karate?

• Ideal students have 3 things in common:

1. They are humble and open to learning;
2. They are dedicated to training and improving themselves;
3. They understand that helping and sharpening the others in
    class makes us all better.

If this sounds like you, then please directly contact the instructor today.

Do you have a children's karate class?

• No. We only have an adult class, open to adults 18 and over, and select teenagers 16 and over on a case by case basis. Children under 16 can go through private training, but that is also on a select, case by case basis only.

Can I buy a gift certificate to give to someone so that he/she can join?

• Yes! Just click here:

  

  Gift certificates are available in various amounts from $5 to $1000, and are good towards class or private training membership programs with VKfit or Victory Karate.

I noticed a lot of God stuff for this program, and I don't believe in God. Can I still train with you?

• Of course! Anyone who is committed to the training is welcome.

I'd like to start a Victory Karate/VKfit ministry at my facility. How can I get started?

• Great! Contact the instructor and let's talk about it.
