She’s now an advanced green belt that continues learning and progressing in her training. This family owned school is run by Sensei Darryl and his daughter, Sensei Sam, and you can truly feel the family atmosphere they’ve created. Their passion, patience, and dedication have created a respectful, structured, and supportive environment. Their teaching style is thoughtful and motivating, and they bring out the best in each student. We’re truly grateful for the positive impact this dojo has had on our daughter.

“Enrolling my daughters at Villari’s Martial Arts has been one of the best decisions I’ve made as a parent. From the very first class, the instructors impressed me with their ability to balance discipline, respect, and fun. My daughter, Sarah, was a bit shy at first, but the welcoming and supportive environment helped her come out of her shell in no time.

What really stands out is the way the program emphasizes not just physical skills but also character development. The kids are taught valuable life lessons such as perseverance, confidence, and respect for others. I’ve seen a noticeable improvement in Sarah's focus and self-discipline, both at home and at school.

The staff is also highly approachable, offering personalized attention to each child. They ensure that all students, regardless of their skill level, feel included and encouraged to do their best.

Overall, I highly recommend Villari's Martial Arts to any parent looking for an enriching, positive activity for their children. It’s more than just learning kicks and punches; it’s about building character and instilling life-long values.“

“I had the pleasure of meeting and training with Professor Tuzinho at a Capoeira event in Ohio. Although it was only a brief session on floreios (acrobatic movements), you can tell his instruction and attention to detail comes from years and years of experience under the tutelage of Grupo Capoeira Brasil's Mestre Boneco. You can tell how passionate he is about teaching beginner and veteran capoeiristas by how much energy he brings to the gym. I feel like I benefitted greatly even from such a brief encounter. I am looking forward to the future when I will be visiting and taking a class with Professor Tuzinho!“
