Martial Arts Schools near Plainville

“PMA is great. There is a nice sense of community and collaborative learning. We're all training partners, not cut-throat competitors and the person who sets the tone is the head coach and instructor Greg Wood. In particular, I appreciate how Greg has studied Jiu Jitsu from many different angles and people and he brings this to every class. Moreover, he encourages us all to continue to explore, to refine, and to improve our techniques using both in class resources and other resources we may discover outside of class. Thank you, Greg! I look forward to many more years of learning Jiu Jitsu to greater and greater depths.“

“At LMA, my sons are having a great time! The instructors at LMA solidify the foundation we have been building with our kids. They’re learning to never give up and that good things come with patience and effort. There is no coddling at LMA, instead the kids are met with understanding and empathy when it’s appropriate. I appreciate the stern attitudes of the instructors which highlights how boundaries are beneficial for children’s growth and development into society. Our sons have brought these life lessons into their home life, encouraging each other when things get difficult, offering a high five and an “awesome job” to each other when they accomplish something. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to raise respectable, productive and positive men and women. Thank you LMA!“

“I signed my son up to help with teaching him discipline and to engage him in extra curricular activities. We started out with a free trial and although my son initially had a hard time adjusting, he quickly became familiar with the routine and even cried to go to class. He’s been going for several months and both he and I love it. What I love the most is the consistency in behavioral expectations and authoritative actions from Master Noam. I also love that there are multiple classes offered per week and that there are no limits on the amount of classes my child can attend. I feel like I’m definitely getting my moneys worth. I look forward to seeing my child grow in his Taekwondo activities!“

“My family and myself have had such an incredible experience at the West Hartford studio. Mr. Gray and Mr. Donado are talented instructors that keep classes fun while demanding respect, self control and self discipline. It has had a positive impact on my son and myself. I would suggest anyone of any age who might be interested to definitely come in and try a class.“

“You meet just the nicest people at this school. Everyone is so helpful and accepting. Well worth being part of this family.“

“My son has only been going for a couple months now and we couldn't be happier. They make it fun for the kids, while staying consistent with discipline. My son's focus and confidence has never been stronger. Thank you to everyone on the team.“

“Both of my sons (ages 8 and 6) have been going to the studio for over a year! Sensei Logan creates an inclusive, encouraging and fun atmosphere for all kids!“

“Amazing experience at Villari’s Martial Arts in Southington!
The instructors are outstanding, and they really focus on teaching respect, discipline, and confidence. We’ve seen such great growth in my son, both in martial arts skills and everyday life. The classes are welcoming and well-run. Highly recommend!“

“Trained with Ms Priffty and she helped me perfect my staff form at Black belt camp. Thank you!“

“Master Oh is the best! You can see and feel that he really cares for his students, especially young kids. Yes, he is tough but he is also caring at the same time. I've known Master Oh for the past 7 years or so and he is the same as the first day I met him. Look no further, if you live in the area, this is the best martial art school.“

“My child has been attending for several months now, and loves it. The instructors do a great job encouraging the kids, even when they are being clingy to their parents. Highly recommended.“

“My teenage daughter and a group of her friends (tweens and teens) attended a two hour self defense class yesterday that taught amazing self awareness and defense skills. Tony, the instructor created a private class for us accommodating our busy schedule. It was creative and active and really drove the message home to the kids without terrifying them. It was such a great way to get the kids to realize they need to get their faces unglued from phones and have an awareness of their surroundings. I found Extreme Karate through a google search. We totally lucked out! Highly recommend this business for self defense classes.“
