From the reviews

So, we just had my son's 6th birthday party at Warhorse. It was AMAZING! Seriously. Amazing. We've done birthday parties all over the place and this was the best! The kids loved it. My son, nor any of the others, had ever done any karate before. But the class is tailored to their level (both skill and age).

★★★★★ — Jonathon, Dec 2018

Both my boys love Warhorse Post Falls. Mr. Salsby, an amazing instructor, keeps the children learning, engaged, and accountable. My oldest is 10 and the proud owner of his brown belt. He’s been in the program for over 5 years. My youngest, age 8, started his program two years ago.

★★★★★ — Gina, May 2024

One of my kids has come here for a couple of years now. He can be a little bit shy, but Mr. Salsby clicked with him immediately and he’s just completely devoted to class.

★★★★★ — Lindsey, May 2024

My son LOVES Warhorse Karate and is excited to participate every week. I appreciate the "blue stripe" forms that are sent home each month, which encourage respectful and positive behavior from the kids.

★★★★★ — Ariel, May 2024

Your first BJJ class at Warhorse Karate • Jiu Jitsu

Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

BJJ is a contact sport. Ease in, tap early and often, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
