“I have a daughter (4) in the kid program and a son (11) in the Jr program. They love the Aikido! Warm up with bear or crab, then there is a lesson on Aikido or Japanese culture, and finally a game. They bow in and out of the mat. The sensei is super patient and kind, while still seeking respect from the kids. Our children have been going about a year and have come a long way. Pictures are from their last belt test, held bi-yearly.“

“Soo good to be home.For the newcomer, it is an amazing place with good people. It becomes family. It's a great place for families to work-out together or by yourself. I hope to see you there.“
“My son absolutely loves all of his classes at UMA and we’ve been so impressed with how personable the staff is and how fun they make it for the kids. Great for teaching disciple, values, coordination, and burning energy. We love it!“
“My daughter (6) loves this place. She's been taking karate for almost 6 months and always enjoys going to class. The senseis are very encouraging and so are the other students. She immediately made friends who quickly turned to family. My son even has his buddies that spend time with him before their class starts. He's only 2 and he is ready to start classes as well. Both Fred and Connie are amazing instructors and always go out of their way for their students. If you are thinking about taking karate come to bells you won't be disappointed“
“In all of central and northern california this is by far the best. My kids have been going here for about 10 years. Before that they where at an other taekwondo place that charged for every pre-test, test, and everything in between and the kids didn't learn much (even though they were given additional belts levels when the fee was paid). But here you must earn your belts! This taekwondo master is the head is the USA taekwondo association, his son is Olympic level. Just walk into the lobby and see the gold and silver metals for yourself. I believe the master is in the Taekwondo hall of fame as well, but he doesn't share this stuff wirh many people. They are friendly and can help train you for any level: From simple weekly excercise to olympic level all in a relaxed environment..“
“American Academy of martial arts is my home away from home. The staff is amazing and great for all ages!“
“As grandparents we have been watching our grandsons participate at Pacific Marshal for over a year.We have seen first hand how they have benefited from this program. From self discipline, building self confidence and self control, striving to improve, showing respect, and building friendships are all things we have witnessed. All of the instructors are amazing with their students… teaching, encouraging, pushing, and caring for each one. I know this will be a lifetime activity for our grandsons and will benefit them in every aspect of their lives.“
“Awesome school. My sons both love coming here. Great atmosphere, legit training, no attitudes. Cant say enough good things. Rick and his staff of coaches are top notch!“
“Love bringing my kids here. They have learned so much from the many coaches that have trained my children. (Coach Jules, Coach Krystal, Coach Kali, Coach Da'vid) are some of the coaches' names. Coach Nick is an amazing coach, not just for kids but adults as well. He's a black belt who teaches Jujitsu and Muay Thai. Coach Nora is another amazing coach. He pushes our kids to be great. He teaches Muay Thai, or sometimes we call it kickboxing. He also does the HITT classes. Coach Lamar is our boxing coach, he coach at both locations, hands down to him.. Overall, the staff at dethrone is really welcoming and professional. Their programs are amazing. When they say Mixed Martial Arts they mean it.. Their classes that they offer are Brazilian Jujitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, and Hitt classes for those who want to work out and get fit to stay healthy. Big shout out to Rick and Jason... Trust me, you will not be disappointed, this gym, we are like family. They get everyone ready to learn how to defend yourself or if you want to go further in that career.. This is the place to be.. Don't forget to call and check out your free class that they offer...“

“5 star for what they do for the students but only negative is during the summer your sweating just sitting and observing your children. A/c is either set high or barely works.“
