Martial Arts Schools near Poway

“I'm sure you are here because you can't figure out what type of martial arts to put your kid in... or you're trying to find a good Taekwondo spot. Well you're in luck because you found a great spot to fulfill both of these desires. Impact Martial Arts is a very well rounded program.My son is in the Tigers 3-6 year old class The class starts with a warm-up and talk about the word of the day (whether it's discipline, respect ,etc.)Then they work on form and technique and work on different types of strikes with their hands and feet.Then the last half of class they focus on weapon training.They typically have two 30 minutes classes per week. They offer classes every day including Saturday. Our son has been doing it for 3 months now and loves it. It's really helped hmm him with his confidence and learning to speak up and speak louder. So far I'm very happy with this place. We are glad we chose Taekwondo because it incorporates hand strikes , kicking and weapons and seems well rounded. It definitely keeps his interest and attention and that's what we were looking for. Our son has been going here for a few months now and it's been great.I would definitely recommend this place“

“Great teachers all around, had a great time. Offers great training and sometimes birthday events!“

“Best jiu jitsu gym in the USA. Excellent teachers and structure!! Results don't lie! Champion walks with champion!!“

“I’ve been coming to this dojo for 2 months and wow what an impact it has made on my standing self defense, ground game and overall conditioning. I’ve been studying BJJ for about a year and Judo has complimented my BJJ game immensely! Sensei Koji is one of the best teachers I have learned from, he is patient and his teaching methods are excellent. He teaches the most authentic Japanese Judo in the area. It’s a fun experience and I couldn’t recommend it enough, great for beginners and experts alike. I’m looking forward to continuing my journey for years to come. Thank you Sensei Koji!“

“We have seen our son grow from being shy and unfocussed to confident and disciplined through kickforce and he’s only 5. In addition to martial arts and self defense, the life skills and affirmations taught are invaluable. Highly recommend to at least give it a try!“

“My kids joined the local karate class and am thoroughly impressed. The instructors are skilled, patient, and dedicated to fostering a positive learning environment. The classes are well-structured, combining traditional martial arts with practical self-defense techniques. The sense of community among students adds to the overall experience. I highly recommend this karate class for anyone seeking effective training in a supportive and welcoming setting.“

“I love training under Sifu Jeramiah and learning his system. He’s learned from some of the best martial art legends, and it shows. He’s extremely knowledgeable in realistic street self defense and weapons tactics, and explains the science and history behind his teachings. These classes are awesome, I absolutely recommended checking it out“

“Great coaching staff! Friendly and clean gym! Coaches are very approachable and make the learning environment fun for beginners.“

“Master Brown runs a tight ship, but extends kindness and levity for all. His teachings build confidence, coordination and skillful abilities to his charges of all sizes and levels. You won't be disappointed.“

“I cannot say enough about Master Moon and Mr. Danny. They are amazing instructors and seem to know just how far to push their students. I love the combination of seriousness and silliness. I'm excited to see my kids progress in their skills without the all too common burnout.“

“Melhor academia de jiu jitsu em San Diego! Atendimento atencioso, treinadores profissionais, funcionários simpáticos, respeito mútuo, mesmo para um iniciante como eu. Treinamento sistemático e progresso técnico graças aos professores. Recomendo a todos, em todos os lugares, e carrego com orgulho o nome Atos comigo. Saudações do Kazakhstan ?? ?? ??“

“My son has been here for 3 months now, and he seems to be doing really well. The instructors are all very kind and knowledgeable about karate, and they are patient with all age levels and learning levels. I am excited to see how the next few months will be and how my son's techniques will evolve.Pros: Intructors care, are knowledgeable, family oriented.Cons: parking up on top (there is a lower lot parking with plenty of room). Transition between classes is slim to none, so dojo gets crowded.“

“My son trained here for a while then stopped. When he decided to start back, he wanted to come back here. Coaches are knowledgeable and still cool!“

“We have been here for almost 2 years now. We came from another jiujitsu where I feel like my daughter wasn't learning and growing. When we came here we felt instantly welcomed. They have more than enough trainers to watch and make sure the kids are doing the movements correctly, and safely. They focus on teaching the kids and making sure they understand the movements before they use them on each other. My kiddo loves coach Jeremy and his wife. She asks to come to practice everyday because she is so determined to grow and advance! She will do amazing things here and we're excited to watch her grow!“

“Very friendly people there. There warm up excersizes will get you in shape. So far I have enjoyed all there group classes. Instructors are very good and thorough.“

“Absolutely the best!! Incredibly passionate about their work with both children and adults, the team here is phenomenal. The give a discount for being a "founding member" so hopefully you didn't miss the chance. If you have a kid (or you yourself) want more self-defense, respect, compassion and discipline in your life - check out White Dragons. The founder, Basil "The White Dragon" Master has not only extensively studied over 10 martial arts styles, he has also tried and tested his experience in competition, fighting in the ring, cage, and the octagon, and in combat through his work in executive protection. The vibe is so positive and powerful. It can change your life.“

“I thought about it and I am coming back to family karate please contact Evette morneau“

“After many years of internal training, in my experience, William (Bill/Sensei) Stegner has proven to be a superior Sensei and has taught me the art of learning IN GENERAL, regardless of your ideology, or religion/beliefs, or level of intellect and or capacity, he is honest about who he is and what his goals are, and ALWAYS cares for each and every one of his students. I have gone through many planes, which you may or may not reach in your martial arts journey, but I promise you, if your intentions are good, Bill will show you how to get where you are trying to go in the way that will endure. You will get out of this what you put in to it. He has studied many and most arts, especially weapons like spear. He's an officer-level cyberspace defense engineer that has meticulously broken down and interpreted many scripts from Japanese history and presents a succinct art that is legit AF. He will show you the deeper foundation of combat arts regarding body weight shifting, pain compliance, striking, and rolling in any direction! (you will be a human ball and feel nothing and make no sound if you are willing to put in the work, which is surprisingly useful haha. Thanks Bill, I will never forget your teachings!)“
