Over the years, we taught South Austin students of all ages with a focus on solid martial arts instruction and teaching essential life skills. We first opened in April of 2005 in the Bee Caves area, moved to Athena Montessori Academy and finally our home in the Brodie Oaks shopping center at South Lamar and Ben White. Over the years, we taught hundreds of children and adults in our facilities along with many thousands through seminars and special events in area schools.


We are so proud of the effort shown by our students in their training, and the support they received from their families. Our students embodied our spirit of warriorship with honor, humanity and service to others.

And though we closed our doors at the end of June 2022 with great sadness, we were, in the end, overwhelmed with gratitude that so many were willing to share such an important part of their lives with us and to share our vision of making the world a better place through introspection, courage and community.

My 2 daughters and I have been part of AKA family for quite some time. They teach not only martial arts, but also good manners, mutual respect, leadership skills and fitness. It is a family like environment. The instructors are kind and friendly. From my own experience as an adult student I can say that you don't have to be strong or in a good shape to get started. You just need to be brave and determined to get started and rest will follow you. Thanks Mr. Mukherjee and Ms. Carla for the push I needed. Great place and I highly recommend for you and your children.


What a great place to instill confidence, coordination, athleticism, and respect in your child. Our daughter has been training at AKA for almost 10 years (from 5 year old Tiny Tiger to 2nd degree black belt) and has loved every minute.


Awesome place to learn martial arts and achieve goals. Super instructor.


My son has been attending Austin Karate since he was 5 years old and a white belt. He is now 11 years old and a blue belt and on his road on becoming a black belt. He wanted to quit many times but stuck with it with some encouragement from parents. He loves it and loves teaching the younger belts. He looks forward to class every time he goes. The instructors are helpful and encouraging. My son is more disciplined and takes pride in being a part of AKA.


My son loves Austin Karate Academy. The option for online and outside classes during the pandemic has really helped my son keep up with his forms. Mr. Mukherjee has been an excellent instructor and does a wonderful job of being firm, yet playful during his interactions with the younger crowd. Thanks for being there, AKA!


Top notch leadership training that goes far beyond the martial art skills. David, the owner & leader, has a wonderful, family-centric club here. My son loves to go twice a week and learned how to push past some tough physical and mental challenges under Mr Mukherjee's mentorship. He started as a Tiny Tiger and is now 2nd degree black belt and helps teach. Amazing experience for my son.

I believe my mom left a review 4 years ago but Austin Karate Academy has only grown since then! AKA does everything it says it will and more. Discipline, confidence, self-defense, you name it, they have it. It encourages students to practice a healthy and balanced lifestyle and also instills a sense of purpose in young kids. Karate isn't only for the kiddos though, adults are welcome with open arms and there are so many exceptional parents as proof! AKA is beyond accommodating and prioritizes making everyone feel as comfortable as they can :)) Personally speaking, these past couple of years have been invaluable and I have made lifelong friends at AKA. Four years later, both my sister and I have earned our black belts while also having a tight-knight karate family within the studio that we know we can depend on! I love AKA and I'm sure you will too. Tang Soo!


"It is not about the belt but the person who is wearing the belt". One will hear this time and again inside the dojo from Master Mukherjee. Austin Karate Academy (AKA) embodies that principle. There is an emphasis on character building, perfecting the techniques and creating a sense of confidence and comfort in the student. AKA prepares and provides opportunities to participate in local and regional tournaments throughout the year. Some students are with AKA for more than a decade, alumni who are active and excellent instructors, and current higher rank students have the opportunity to teach a class or a group of students. I have found that the Master and instructors can make a personal connection with the student, work 1:1 as needed and passionate about martial art and teaching it. In this unprecedented time of social distancing and self-quarantine, AKA is providing regular online instructor-led classes to ensure the continuity of the program. We have been part of AKA since the summer of 2015 and very satisfied with the overall experience.
