At Dojo Karate, we are proud to be actively involved in several charitable events and partnerships. Our Annual Charity Golf Tournament has raised over $170,000 for various charities in the past 14 years, and in 2025, it will benefit You’re Not Alone, a mental health nonprofit that uses therapy dogs to support students and staff in schools. In past years, we’ve also supported the Autism Society of Minnesota (AUSM). We organize and participate in food and school supply drives to help those in need in our community, and we show our support for cancer warriors by wearing pink uniforms. We also volunteer at local events, schools, and daycares, and we offer adaptive martial arts programs for individuals of all ages and abilities, including those with autism.

The owners and partners of Dojo Karate Blaine share a deep passion for martial arts that grew from years of dedication as students, competitors, and instructors. Master Morse began training in childhood, rising to a 5th-degree black belt and earning top state tournament honors before leading programs at multiple locations and helping launch Blaine as Dojo Karate’s 10th school. Ms. Morrill’s journey began in 2018 when she joined with her young son, growing into an accomplished competitor and instructor who values family learning. Ms. Fuhrman brings over a decade of teaching experience, advancing to a 4th-degree black belt and leading kickboxing teams with enthusiasm and expertise. Mr. Christy, a martial artist of more than fifteen years, combines his teaching skills and technical knowledge to mentor students and inspire their growth. Together, their combined experiences and commitment to community shaped the vision for bringing Dojo Karate to Blaine.

Tell a story about a great customer experience.

A family recently shared how their 9-year-old instantly felt at home on his first day at Dojo Karate Blaine, where the atmosphere was welcoming, organized, and full of positive energy. Parents described the school as more than just a place to learn martial arts, it is a community built on respect, discipline, and motivation. Dedicated instructors go beyond teaching Taekwondo, instilling values like focus, patience, and leadership that show in students’ lives at home and school. Many families who have tried other schools say they keep coming back because nothing compares to the supportive, uplifting environment at Dojo Karate.

Explain why a customer should consider your business instead of going to a competitor.

Our mission is simple: For Kids, For Adults, For Life. Whether you’re looking to build confidence, focus, fitness, or discipline, our supportive instructors are here to help you reach your full potential.

What extra services do you offer that people might not know about? For example, restaurants might offer catering and Car Washes might offer shampooing of seats and carpet.
