"I cannot say enough good things about this school and its owner, Daniel Delenela. His passion for the art is contagious and his professionalism is second to none. One of the things we love most is that he not only instructs the students in technique, but explains why they are doing what they are doing. He commands respect in a very friendly, approachable manner which is great for students of all ages. He is patient, kind, faithful and incredibly knowledgeable. Our boys would love to go 7 days a week if they could! The academy is always clean, the class times are convenient and work well with school schedules. Mr. Delenela's dedication to his school and students is very apparent. We wouldn't go anywhere else!!"

"I recently moved to Round Rock with my family and had been searching for the right Martial Arts school. I had spent several years training in a Japanese style of Karate and was looking for something with similar principles such as self-discipline and a focus on technique. It is my opinion that a majority of Martial Arts schools are flashy and ineffective. I knew right away when I watched the instructor at Round Rock Karate working with some younger children that he was what I was looking for. He is patient and treats his students in a respectful manner. Most noticeable to me with my Martial Arts experience was his excellent technique and natural teaching ability. He is excellent with very young children that can test even an experienced parent! I highly recommend anyone looking for a program for themselves or family member check it out!"

"This school is awesome. The atmosphere of the classes are very friendly and encourage learning. The instructor, Daniel Delenela, is very friendly, patient, and most of all very approachable. He definitely puts the students before him and constantly thinks of what is best for the students. The class schedules are convenient and frequent so students have more choices to work into their schedules. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is interested in learning karate."

"We are so happy to be part of this academy. Mr Daniel is very patient with the children. When talking to Mr. Daniel about what his academy was about, he was just so passionate about explaining everything to us. He is very knowledgable and dedicated to his academy and the children who attend."

"My family and I moved to Round Rock two years ago. Previously, we had our son in a different Martial Arts School that would not have deserved even one star from me.
The Round Rock Karate Academy has been UNIQUE and has gone above and beyond every one of my expectations! The instructor, Daniel Delenela, is AMAZING with the children and exhibits great knowledge of working with children of all ages. Not to mention, his patience with all the kids is outstanding!
The school offers the opportunity of going Monday thru Saturday if you choose, whereas other schools only offer 2 or 3 days per week. Mr. Delenela has a great eye, even when there are large classes, and is able to take the time to correct and help the ones that are still struggling.
There is great communication with this Academy and you are always kept up to date on the latest news, achievements and tests.
My son has been with this academy since opening and absolutely LOVES being there. He loves the close relationships that have formed between all the kids, and the fact that Mr. Delenela is a person that he can TALK to and confide in.
It is great for disciplinary measures, defense, relaxation and so much more. I have already noticed a huge change in my son's attitude and outlook.
And if you're thinking about price wise, even THIS aspect of the place is reasonable!
The Round Rock Karate Academy has got the total package.
I recommend this academy to anyone that is interested in Martial Arts. You will NOT be disappointed."

"I called the phone # on the door because the location was closest to my home but, when I spoke to Mr Delenela, besides liking his name and the name of the school, I took the next step to pre registering my son for martial arts at Round Rock Karate Academy because I picked up on the passion for the art in his voice. I know how important passion is, its presence helps us to gain clarity, confidence and courage to pursue our purpose. This is just to name a few. Passion transfers wisdom in more ways than can be perceived. So far, I've been more than happy, my son is in great hands."
