“My daughter has been coming here for 6 months now and she loves it so much more than I ever thought possible! I believe its because of the dedication and passion of every teacher here. They truly love what they do and care about every single child! I am beyond happy that we decided to try out a class! We love you LMA!!!“

“I’m really glad I discovered PMA.
Greg is a fantastic coach, and everyone there is incredibly supportive and welcoming.“

“My daughter started in July and absolutely loves JC Karate!! Master JC is so special and has an incredible way of making learning and personal growth fun! The other instructions we have had the pleasure of working with are also great and bring their own added value to my child’s practice. The monthly “homework” is a great way to bring conversation surrounding the values that the students are taught in karate into the home. I have loved having these thoughtful conversations with my daughter and now having mutually shared language to bring/reinforce these awesome values into our home. My daughter also has a new found sense of confidence and sense of belongingness, which is invaluable! We cannot recommend JC Karate enough!“

“Great gym and great teachers. All the staff and students are friendly and you feel like family immediately. My daughter takes the kids BJJ class and she loves it. I myself have trained and shopped around at multiple gyms from MMA to BJJ and I've never felt more at home than at CT combat. I just have to add that the teachers for the kids class are great with kids. Helping not only with self defense but the kids are learning real life characteristics to bring home and to school like teamwork, respect and responsibility. Not only that the kids are having a lot of fun. Check this gym out and you won't be disappointed!!!“

“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!“

“Long standing history here at Beaudoin Academy. Many Masters in Tang Soo Do trained here.“

“Both Jane Doe No More and the self-defense classes are an unparalleled combination of common sense (that is not so common), strength, conditioning and confidence building. Drew & his team are smart and engaging confidence builders, they make you feel safe, empowered and most importantly, they educate you. You feel a level of readiness that you did not know you needed.“

“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 son just started at the Charland Institute this year and he absolutely LOVES it! The instructors are amazing, patient, and they serve as great role models to our community's children. They are well-organized and supportive. We're so glad to have jumped in!“

“My granddaughter started at Sokol’s Taekwondo in the beginning of January. She has made amazing progress in such a short period of time. I see, rising self-confidence, increased body awareness and control, improved self-discipline, and longer sustained attention. Mr. Sokol is firm yet supportive. He expects respect for the instructor, fellow students, the dojo, and the martial arts while providing a fun experience for all. My granddaughter loves everything about this school. She recently earned a stripe for her belt and said, “ I am so proud of myself”. Thank you Mr. Sokol.“

“What are you looking for in a martial arts school? If you're like me, you want a place that teaches discipline, respect, and control (emotional, physical, spiritual). The master belts at this dojang (dojo) teach all of the above, in a nurturing environment of camaraderie and friendship. My son (black belt, first dan) and daughter (green belt) have both found a comfortable place of mutual respect and discipline, while also learning to do amazing feats of physical prowess. For anyone even curious about the Tang Soo Do (karate-do) way of life, I highly recommend you give USA MA Naugatuck a try.“

“Amazing Hapkido school. Master Gary teaches old school Hapkido based on Daito-ryu. Hapkido is THE martial art for anybody. Such a family friendly and welcoming atmosphere.“

“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.“
