HOW DO I SIGN UP AND GET STARTED?
We start with a 30 minute private or semi-private trial where the student meets Master Nicky and is introduced to the basics of our program. The purpose is for the student and parent to understand the Dojo practices and Master Nicky's style of teaching to ensure it is a good fit. This is by appointment only.
WHAT DO I WEAR TO CLASS?
Each student will be provided a Nicky's Pro Karate T-Shirt at the time of their trial lesson. Our NPK t-Shirt along with black karate pants or MMA shorts is appropriate attire. Shoes, specific to Martial Arts training can also be worn, but are optional. We provide gloves, but highly recommend you purchase a pair of your own.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I FORGET MY BELT?
We understand that sometimes we forget....simply enter class and stand at the end of the line. Do not stand in order of rank. Try not to forget again.
WHEN AND HOW DO I GET TO TEST FOR MY NEXT BELT?
Our program is set up with certain goals in mind for earning your next belt. Attendance, effort and the ability to perform the techniques outlined in our curriculum are keys to being invited to test. Once invited, we will set up a time for Master Nicky to test your skills. Remember, practice is a key component.
I met Master Nicky when I was 17 and he has treated me like family from the beginning. I've never had such an excellent mentor. The review below me is false. In all the years that I've spent with Master Nicky he has never even raised his voice to any of his students, even when coaching me in my championship fight. Master Nicky has more to offer the world than just martial arts training. He is a scholar on a wide variety of subjects such as fitness, nutrition, and history just to name a few. He is a gem in the neighborhood of Calabasas and everywhere I go to compete people always come up to me and ask me if Master Nicky is going to be there because they love to be around him. Thank you for making me a champion Master Nicky!

Visiting Nicky’s Pro Karate Posted on September 2, 2010 by fulpallenwrestling During my time in California, I have been in both L.A. and the Bay Area. While in L.A., I had the unique opportunity to do a mini clinic for Nicky’s Pro Karate in Calabasas. I was able to help young kids who already had their black belt in karate with their wrestling. Some had already been learning a double leg as they were participating in some jiu-jitsu. They were really cute, as they all would holler “YES MA’AM!” whenever I gave instructions. Sometimes as wrestlers, I think we forget how many different disciplines there are that are similar to wrestling. There are all these kids who love the art of a contact sport. It was really inspiring to see how excited these kids were to learn some wrestling. But not only were they just going to learn a new move, they were going to focus on the details I gave to them and learn how to adapt it in to their sport. It makes me think, what other kinds of sports can I adapt to my wrestling?

Some of my experiences I had in Karate are: I had a difficult times, like when I lost my belt, lost my tips, got hurt….but, that didn’t stop me. Nothing could. Sometimes I wanted to quit but I didn’t. I’m glad I didn’t quit because now I am something special. I have good discipline and I am respectful. Everything I just spoke about was from Karate and there is six people in this world I can thank. That is Master Nicky, Mr. Geo, Mr. Derrick and 2 very important people who inspired me is my parents and my best friend Mark.

My son, Michael, age 10, recently earned his black belt at Nicky's Pro Karate. He has trained since he was four years old. Without question, the black belt test and ceremony was one of the proudest experiences of my life. But even more important are the many life's lessons Michael learned along the way toward his lofty goal. They will be a source of great strength to him as he faces life's many challenges in the future. Wow, what a ride. Thanks, Master Nicky, Master Derrick, and Mr. Geo. You guys are the greatest!

“After six years at NPK, I’ve learned that I can achieve anything in life, and have developed a strong work ethic that can be applied to almost everything. Karate has helped me keep a positive attitude, lead by example, develop a positive self image, stay in good physical shape, be confident, responsible, and respectful and maintain excellent grades by developing my mental and physical health. For the past several months I have been trying to base my life on the Black Belt Oath…”

Anyone looking for a strong role model for their children and an inspirational trainer for themselves only need to look as far as Master Nicky at Nicky's Pro Karate. Nicky not only teaches Mixed Martial Arts skills, he motivates his students to be the best they can be in all areas of their lives. My 10 year old son thrives at the dojo and looks up to Master Nicky. I too get a great workout and learn self-defense in the adult class. My 15 year old daughter uses the workouts to supplement her cross country training regimen. I couldn't be more proud that both my children and I attend class at Nicky's.
