“Masters Kim and Kang are really good. I agree with all other reviews that they are extremely accommodating and I will add also hardworking. Even during covid they continued to train online temporarily so minimum classes are missed. I am amazed at how much the kids know during testing about diff forms and techniques. Master Kim is funny, fair and even strict with the students when he needs to be.“

“My 10 year old son and 12 year old daughter have been attending U.S. Martial Arts Academy for over a year. They enjoy the challenge and have thrived. Their Taekwondo skills have developed but there are several attributes they have acquired that we were not expecting. Their self-esteem, confidence, mood, and levels of determination have noticeably grown.“

“We Hired Frank from Amalgam Martial Academy to work with kids ages 6 - 12 years over a summer camp program. Every week the kids were super excited to see Mr. Frank and learn all about self defense, good character, and discipline. He was personable with the kids and would quickly change tactics if he felt they were struggling with a concept and re-frame it in a new light. At the end of the summer the camp kids even got to break their own boards! They we so proud of themselves and the new skills they learned with Mr. Frank. If you are thinking of putting your kids in martial arts, my top recommendation is Amalgam Martial Academy and Mr. Frank. We will definitely hire them again for future summer camp programs. Thank you Mr Frank!“

“I have two children who attend Joon Lee's in Orland Park. We have been attending for three months and we could not be happier. Our boys want to come every day and love their classmates and instructors. Master Jared is wonderful as an instructor, and he has helped them grow so much in discipline and in confidence. Our oldest just went to a tournament with Joon Lee's and won first place in his forms. I love the pride they have shown and can not wait to see how far they go!“

“Highly recommended! We've been at CKC for over 4 years and have had a tremendous experience. The head instructor / Sensei is extremely skilled, patient, and presents a positive attitude and learning environment. The coaching staff, lead by Mohammad, focus on character building, teamwork and sportsmanship. Again, I highly recommend (for children and adults).“

“Our girls love this class. Master Sul is patient, knowledgeable and enjoys teaching. The class is giving them confidence, teaching self defense and valuable life skills about self esteem, respect, courtesy. They take pride in their forms and testing and are even more proud to show others. They are progressing nicely and we’ve seen a huge improvement at home with following directions and self control. Highly recommend!“

“I was a practitioner for about 15 years until the age of 18 and had to leave for college. I worked up to my second degree black belt and it took 15 years, so you can assume this school believes in the philosophies a martial arts school should: discipline, hard work and perseverance. I am currently 21 years old and I owe Hapkido my life as it taught me self discipline at such a young age and led me to carry those same philosophies throughout high school up into the present. I love Hapkido because of the culture this school produces. The culture of confidence, not arrogance. The culture of movement and life, not stillness. The culture of love, not hate. Grand Master Chang and Master Austria have given me life beyond my years. I highly recommend this school to anyone who cares about caring for themselves or their family. It focuses on self defense techniques that could literally save your life someday. This school is a place where kids can grow up and become leaders rather than followers. It is a place where you push yourself to be a better you. I can't stress how greatly appreciative I am of this wonderful school and all the amazing mentors I had. Do yourself a favor and sign up as soon as possible!“
