Looking to compare Santa Barbara’s different Martial Art schools?  There are a lot of karate schools in the  area and I couldn’t find a place that listed every one of them.  This page is dedicated to doing just that.  As a parent, I know that it is important to do your homework about these types of things.

About the list:
I looked up every “Karate” place in Santa Barbara by searching for terms such as Kung Fu School, Karate School, Martial Arts lessons, etc.  Then I sorted through all of them and took out the duplicates or alternative business names. I removed the Karate “clubs” or places that didn’t actually have a school location in Santa Barbara.
