Martial Arts Schools near Pace

“I just started a few weeks ago, and so far (soreness aside), I am enjoying the training, and conditioning. Most of all, the community is very welcoming.“

“My kiddo loves everything about MAA. They have family friendly classes. Summer camp, after school programs, birthday parties“

“So we tried another martial arts place before and I didn’t care for the “participation belt promotion” or the calendar that tells you the advance belt days (which literally everyone gets next belt advance) I didn’t agree with that or that my son thought he could look at a schedule and know when he would get next color belt. Ron Little is drastically different and not only does he have to work for his advancement in belts he is learning real life skills and how to apply them! After a while my husband joined in to have a special time with just the two of them doing something together. If you are searching for something legit this is the real deal, if you are looking for a cookie cutter, everyone gets a participation trophy and not requiring discipline, hard work and actually learning and how to apply skills just type in other martial art classes and you can find one that perhaps does not require or have a standard. I, knowing what I know now, wish we would have found Ron Little way long ago. Not only has it been great for father/son bonding but given my son confidence and knowledge and skills to carry into his life outside of class. Thank you Ron and your hardworking instructors for your dedication to keeping it real and not letting dollar signs distort your class! I recommend this to anyone and they have younger kiddos class and adult/older kiddos class which they will guide you where to start or do both!“

“Instructors David is a very patient teacher and works well kids of various skill levels. From beginner to upper belts. Respect is highly emphasized. Respect for the instructors, for training partners, for teachers. For parents and for themselves. Very watchful over the class during base battles/sparing. Always encouraging the students, even the few times someone might get a little aggressive or angry. Respect is the key and discipline.“

“I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional experience my children, ages 5 and 7, have had at your academy. Tiger Rock has exceeded all of my expectations.

Your instructors do an incredible job of developing motor skills, coordination, and self-discipline through engaging, game-based learning. I am particularly impressed with the core life skills curriculum; the focus on traits such as listening, obedience, sharing, patience, and kindness has been instrumental in my children's social, cognitive, and physical development.

This program has been especially impactful for my 7-year-old son, who has profound autism and ADHD. While these core skills can be challenging for him, every instructor treats him—and every child who enters the building—as an individual and provides excellent guidance. I am incredibly grateful to have a place where my children can learn these vital skills from such kind and compassionate instructors.“

“Great place to learn martial arts and life skills. Grand master Colbert always comes with the best attitude when teaching class. Learning all these self defense techniques for the last couple of years has been fantastic. Besides this, our school does very well in tournaments. This is due to grand master Colbert keen eye on the technique and training.“
