Seriously! You guys are rocking this incredibly hard time for the kiddos. Thank you.


Scavenger hunt was SO fun for all of us. Thank you!!!!!!!!! Lindy Talbott Adams


We love you all. You are amazing and everything you are doing to keep my boys engaged, having fun, and part of the M3 family is great. Keep up the great work and keep being creative! -Scott Gaspar


That’s quite a set up! Thank you for your dedication to keeping everything up for the kids. It makes a huge difference!!! -Lindsey Stair


We are so Grateful for all that you guys do! Our son has loved M3 Karate since Day 1. You guys are so dedicated to all the students. During this trying time you have demonstrated that dedication more than ever. You immediately started doing virtual classes to continue to teach and interact with the students. We have been so impressed with how organized, adaptive, and positive you all have been. We love all the zoom classes, family fitness classes, and weekly testing/check-ins. We also love that you have incorporated some fun virtual meetings, like a talent show, contests with fun incentives, and scavenger hunts. Again, thank you for showing us and our son how to work hard, be committed, and have fun.


A huge thanks to M3 Karate for always supporting the amazing community they've built! Almost a year and a half ago when we enrolled our boys at M3, we never could have imagined the community we were joining. Every member of the Worsley family is a better person both physically and mentally from the amazing people (staff and families) at M3. Thanks Mendoza family for everything.


Highly Recommend! Our 7 yo daughter and 4 yo son have been asking to try karate for some time. After moving to AZ we researched schools in the area and came across M3 Karate off of a community recommendation. We couldn’t be happier with our decision. Master Mendoza along with his team are an awesome mix of discipline and firmness with kindness and compassion. Already we notice a huge change in our daughter’s level of confidence and attitude. I’ve never seen her so driven and focused. In addition we have noticed their relationship shift at home where my older daughter is teaching her younger brother and helping him more in all areas since they have had this practice for common ground. I’m incredibly grateful we came across this Martial Arts studio. Looking forward to watching our children grow in their practice with this professional team and being a part of the M3 family.

Since 1986, DePalma's TEAM USA Martial Arts has been providing instruction in Kenpo Karate and the martial arts. Kyoshi DePalma started his schools in Connecticut with locations in Newington, Wethersfield, Berlin, Southington & Cromwell. In 1992 the Arizona locations started with schools in Gilbert, Mesa, Power Ranch and Prescott Valley.

We hope you enjoy our website and will stop by and visit us if you are in the area. This site is designed to give you information about our facility, our style of martial arts, our staff and provide you with information on how to contact us as well.

Kenpo is a style of Karate developed in the west. The only difference between Kenpo and Kempo is in the translation of the Kanji to its English form. The words Kenpo and Kempo are both pronounced the same and both mean "Law of the Fist." However, the more "traditional" forms of Kempo use the "Kempo" form, while the more non-traditional modern or contemporary versions use the term "Kenpo."

Kenpo is a martial art that teaches self-defense and self-control through three primary methods: self-defense techniques, forms, and sparring. However, Kenpo diverges from traditional Karate in several important respects. Students are encouraged to change and adapt the techniques. Kenpo emphasizes vital point attacks using punches, strikes and kicks. Throws are also important in Kenpo.

Self-defense techniques help Kenpo students develop their skills by allowing them to practice with different threatening situations and experiment with what-if scenarios. Initially, forms and katas help students to develop mental concentration and mental discipline. As they progress, the forms and katas help them to develop self-awareness and self-expression. Kumite (also known as freestyle or sparring) is an exercise in which students test their skills, self-confidence, and self-control in a friendly competition among other classmates. It gives students the opportunity to develop their reflexes and timing in a controlled environment while engaging in a sport activity.

Hughes Karate-do offers Kids karate classes for kids aged 5 and up. We provide a structured yet fun environment for learning Karate that helps children build their concentration, physical ability, and confidence.

Our Little Tigers class is for the smaller kids just starting out. Our emphasis is on basic stances, movement, avoiding attacks, punching and kicking. The child is introduced to kata with “Basic form #1”, and continues to grow with other kata such as Naihanchi and Pinan. These are the same kata the adults learn, with applications appropriate for young minds. We teach basic self-defense techniques against various attacks which are simple and easy for the smallest child to learn, while also providing realistic self-defense applications. Everything we teach the children is solidly grounded in traditional Okinawan Karate, so as they grow up and continue to train they learn increasingly sophisticated applications for every basic move they learned when they were smaller.

Intermediate children continue to build on the basic foundations. The emphasis is on polishing their techniques and growing a more thorough understanding of fundamental karate principles. These kids spend time on developing strong kicking and punching techniques, learning how to fall without being injured, and light, realistic sparring. Study of kata continues, with more difficult kata being introduced and practiced. Children learn more applications for the moves in the kata, and practice on each other.

Older kids and teens receive training that is similar to what the adults receive. Some kids, depending on skill level and maturity, may train with the adults. We are very mindful of the serious nature of what we study and are careful to temper what we teach when younger kids are around. Even leaving out some of the more joint-crunching concepts that the adults study, the older kids still receive a rich grounding in the fundamentals of Okinawan karate.

Hughes karate-do has experience training kids with special challenges. We enjoy teaching such children and find them to be very good students. If you are considering karate training for such a child Sensei Hughes would be happy to discuss this with you further.
