Christian is a stellar instructor. I drive from McCormick ranch because the quality of the instruction is worth it. He is animated, professional and very patient with his students, including my 17 year old daughter with Down Syndrome. Thank you, Christian!
coming from someone who attends/attended it’s a really nice place with good training! would be 5 stars but there was a time where i was physically barely able to breathe and was told to keep going and could not sit down and breathe.., a bit traumatising but otherwise 8-9/10!
My son is thriving at SMAC. They cater to children of all abilities and foster confidence and respect. We researched many dojos in the Scottdale area before we decided upon SMAC. We are extremely pleased with staff and facility.
