Martial Arts Schools near Oswego

“I tried about 5 Taekwondo and MMA centers in the area for my 5 year old kid and this is the best among all all we tried.

There is a good number of masters for kids and often get 1:1 or utmost 2:1 classes despite in groups.

The obstacle course in almost every session is a wonderful activity for kids and they enjoy it very much!“

“Outstanding support, approachable staff, expert knowledge, and fun to be around. Recommend!“

“Have been with Yong In Aurora for close to one year now. My son thoroughly enjoys the time spent with his Masters. All Masters take personal interest in teaching the required skills and they make kids love the activity.“

“I feel incredibly lucky to have been a member of the teen and adult class at World Class Taekwondo for three years now. I cannot say enough good things about the school and Master Eskew, Master Polanski, and Master Gates who pour their hearts into making this place so welcoming, fun, and challenging. There are very few times in life that you get to meet folks who have dedicated their lives to a craft and they want to come alongside you and share it with you. When you decide to try something new and learn a martial art for the first time as an adult, you count your blessings when you find people who want to cheer you on and support that journey, wherever it may take you! There is so much beauty in a practice that requires your mental and physical dedication. I am never bored, and I leave each class feeling proud of myself and my classmates. My time in class is precious to me, and I am always grateful for the 45-minute break from the stress and chaos of life. This is a very special school, where anyone can find their own Taekwondo!“

“We came to know about this center through our son's school program. Have been sending our son here for a little over one month, and the program has been amazing! Our son is getting the power and strength and the program is helping him focus. Master Kim is very friendly. The co-instructors Master Jung and Co and really helpful as well and accommodating. It's great to see so many helpers/co-instructors help the kids as they need attention and help from time to time. Master Carlos is great with the kids and very approachable! We tried a different center in Naperville and 95th street, where the instructors weren't that great, and glad we made the switch!“

“We have been apart of Ace for only a short time about 2 months and we love it!! This is a family and you can feel it!! The instructors are amazing!! Our daughter loves it and she's able to work on some her struggles in class and it's been amazing seeing the transformation. We were concerned when the school started but we adjusted her bedtime and it's help tremendously! I can't say enough great things! Thank you Ace for welcoming us to your family!!“

“Master Chuck is more than just my Tae Kwon Do instructor. He has taught me important values and given me experiences that have been an integral part of my character and my childhood.Kamsamnida“

“I was one of Tyson's very first customers in 1995. A lot of my discipline comes from him to this day. Highly recommend.“

“I have known sensei Dhawan for many years and never meet a karate instructor with such vast experience, dedication to the martial arts and deep in-depth knowledge of karate. He is truly a great martial artist.“

“My son has special needs and has been attending this center for over four months. The instructor is experienced and, more importantly, patient, and clearly committed to each student's progress — he never rushes and makes sure every child moves at a pace that works for them. We've seen real improvement, and my son genuinely looks forward to his classes.
I'd recommend this place to everyone, and especially to children who need extra attention or more time to learn.“

“I've been taking my kids here before the pandemic mask mandate was lifted. We came from another gym but held dual memberships for the first three months (I prepaid at our first gym for an entire year). Before we left our first gym, my kids had learned so much in their first month at Carlson Gracie, they were beating kids who they had struggled with previously. Towards the end of the three month overlap, my boys were wrecking all the kids from our first gym. Thanks to coach Brian, his pursuit of teaching the fine details of techniques with immence patients with EVERY student, leaves no one behind and at a level that is second to none. Coach Jeff is and endless encyclopedia of technical know how, a walking, breathing real life technician's Bible of mma. You won't find a better gym that has this level of resources, period.“

“My son started a few months ago at Eagle academy and is enjoying his time there . This is the first time he has done something like this for himself. He’s excited to go ever week and really enjoys himself and gets along so well with the other kids.“

“So grateful we found this incredible judo community. The teachers are skilled, thoughtful, professional, and excellent with all ages. The owner honors the traditional values of judo. My son loves class. Highly recommend this dojo for classes for both kids and adults.“

“I have attended a few parties there and one community event. Its an great place, very pretty, simple yet impressive design. Staff there is very helpful, polite and efficient.“

“Grand Master John is awesome. My son started his Taekwondo Journey almost one year ago. He never missed it because he truly enjoy being in class. Everything is built on respect, discipline and family.“

“Eddie's one of the very best. Professional, serious, responsible. Highly recommend“
