Tai Karate

I have been going to mark Crawford since I was 12 years old and I gotta say that as far as knowledge is concerned and being a instructor mark knows his stuff. Tide karate is a well rounded art it’s been in Covina since the early 1980s, tie karate is made up of Kempo Karate, kickboxing, American boxing, kung fu, jujitsu and grappling it was the original UFC style fighting way before UFC was even heard of. This is an awesome studio to get in shape and to learn actual street self defense I highly recommended.

If you want to go from gym to gym training with UFC wannabes this place ain’t for you, this is real deal karate! Stuff UFC can’t handle. Bruce lee would recommend this place for sure! So so cheap for how much crazy knowledge you earn. Go Tai karate! Warning very addictive!

I had been looking for a reputable martial arts studio to train at for a while. There are to many studios out there that have lost touch with true martial arts. Not Tai Karate! The instructor Mark Crawford has been practicing martial arts for 30 plus years and is one of the most knowledgeable instructors I have ever met. This guy really knows his stuff. The art is Kenpo based and blended with Jujitsu, kung fu and chin na. Mark also teaches Boxing and is a master at grappling. The atmosphere is great and the other students are nice. I was really impressed with how good everyone was. The prices are very reasonable at $ 70 a month! A lot of the other studios I checked out before hand were expensive and the instructors were not as knowledgeable. One tip. The place is on E Badillo street but is not viewable from the street. You will see it in the alley behind Tradeway Glass. Hope this helps!
