The International Martial Arts Association Honbu Dojo has been in operation in Louisville, CO for over 30 years. During this time it has grown into an internationally recognized dojo. For those fortunate enough to find its doors we know what a special place it is, giving not only second- to-none karate instruction but also teaching the more important lessons of teamwork, discipline, sportsmanship, and hard work.
The dojo has an elite competition team that trains as hard as any high school sports team and routinely has athletes winning major tournaments and even competing for spots on the US team. Team I.M.A. is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, that is dedicated to supporting the dojo's competition team. Unlike many youth activities, our athletes receive no public support and our team’s travel and training expenses are funded solely through members’ families. Throughout the year parents, athletes, and coaches hold fundraising events to help offset equipment, tournament fees and training expenses for the athletes. The funds raised go directly to the athletes who are on the competition team that calendar year.
