About the Program
Excel Martial Arts on S Rainbow Blvd (89146) teaches Shotokan karate to kids from age 3.5 up through teens and adults, mixing in Krav Maga style self-defense and weapons like the nunchaku and bo staff. Owner and head instructor Catalin "Sensei Nick" Neagu holds a 5th degree black belt.
The youngest group, Excellent Kids, is for ages 3.5 to 6 (the class schedule lists it as 4 to 6), with afternoon classes at 4:15 PM and 5:00 PM. From age 7, kids start in Beginner White Belt and then move up by belt color. Levels 1 and 2 cover ages 7 to 12, Level 3 starts at 9, Level 4 at 10 and Level 5, for black belt candidates, at 11. Teens 12 and up can also join the Krav Maga classes, and a no-gi grappling class takes ages 16 and up. Each class includes stretching for flexibility matched to age and level.
The school offers a free trial class, so you can see the room before signing up. It also runs summer camps, birthday parties and a free Parent's Night Out. Call 702-478-5100 for rates and to check which days each class meets.

First Visit Guide
What most martial arts schools expect. Confirm the details with Excel Martial Arts before you go.
What to bring
- A t-shirt and shorts or joggers. You don't need a uniform for a trial class. Schools sell or include one when you sign up.
- Water bottle
- Shoes that slip off easily, since everyone is barefoot on the mat
Before you go
- Trim fingernails and toenails. It's a mat rule almost everywhere.
- Leave the jewelry at home.
- Arrive 10 minutes early so your child can watch the class before theirs and see how it works.
The first visit
Most dojos run a free or cheap trial. Expect bowing in, warm-ups, and basic stances. Teachers see first-timers every week and will put your child at the back where they can copy the older kids.
For sensory-sensitive kids
Ask about class size and whether there's a slower intro class. The line-up-and-bow structure is the same every single class, and that predictability is exactly why a lot of kids with ADHD or autism end up loving martial arts once it's familiar.
