Martial Arts Schools near Dedham

“Great class atmosphere, wonderful interaction between Sensei and the students. My daughter loves going, and will sometimes go 3x a week. She's learning discipline, and socializing with a range of ages.“

“Bobby and his family/staff are amazing! My son was a member at Bushido Martial Arts for almost 5 years. Its been a wonderful experience watching him learn and grow in Katate. Bobby has been extremely supportive and kind over the years, helping us find our way with scheduling and my son's apprehensions. I would recommend Bushido to anyone who's interested in Martial Arts. They have a variety of classes for all ages. Once you join, you're family!!“

“I have severe neuropathy and dropped feet. I had been wearing AFO braces for three years. My leg muscles were gone. I needed help. I found Chi at Clientel3 and things changed almost overnight. I've stopped wearing the braces. I am walking, granted slowly because my feel still drop and I am prone to tripping, but what a difference! My attitude and confidence are up also. I continue to work on it and expect to continue to improve. Chi and his team are the BEST!“

“Amazing time here! The instructor Dima was very kind and welcoming my first time coming and trying out Jiu Jitsu. The fellow sparrers were also understanding and informative on improvement. Great atmosphere overall“

“As someone with severe learning impairments, I can truly say that this place has really helped me significantly in my life. Not just through the lessons I’ve learned but the consistent encouraging and positive reinforcement to never give up and keep moving forward. Not just A place to train martial arts, but a place Where you feel welcome and motivated“

“Whether moving/living nearby or stopping by when passing through, I highly recommend training at the Lab. They have numerous classes for all skill and experience levels and offer private lessons too! The Lab even has competition-specific classes for those who are serious about competing at local, nation-wide, and/or within prestigious/high level organizations. As a regular competitor, the Lab offered/offers me the unique opportunity to train for competitions with others who also have similar competition goals and rigor—something often not offered at other gyms. Further yet, as a woman competitor, it is often a challenge to find gyms that draw in other women competitors to train with; the Lab has skilled, experienced, and competitive women on their mats. If you are serious about competing and you are a woman, do yourself a favor and train at the Lab!“

“Amazing institute. It is an honor for my family to be trained by Master Kim and his team. Values such discipline, precision and strength are instilled every lesson. Location is also very convenient.“

“As a student to this martial art school, I’ve been taught necessary techniques, and position on my combos. He is very nice, helpful, and knows a lot of the moves he teaches you on the belt level you are currently on. Because of him, my currently belt level is Jr.Black Belt“

“Would recommend this place for a variety of reasons: it's a relatively supportive environment; right now as of October 25, 2024, their ju-jitsu class has a reasonable level of participants, so you'll find practitioners of varying skill level. For kickboxing, it's a cardio-demanding martial art so expect to prepare yourself to be sweating. Some tips from someone who has been going for over 7 months for kickboxing: Buy hand-wraps either on Amazon or at the dojo, gloves, a water bottle and when you get in there, if you plan on sticking it out for a while, ask to be put in their email system so in the case that the dojo is closed ahead of time, you'd know. The website schedule isn't as fully up-to-date, it's better if you email them for an updated schedule. Currently it's $120 per martial art per month, but there have been some exceptions here and there, it's better if you speak with them in person/on the phone for financial payment clarification. I can talk forever with a bunch of other things but this is too long already. Have fun!“

“Calvin Chin's Martial Arts Academy came to my company to help celebrate the Lunar New Year with their lion dance. We filled three floors of lobby space with our employees watching the performance and excitedly engaging with the lion. The way the lion interacted with the audience together with the music from the beating drums created such a fun and memorable experience for our employees. Thank you!“

“Sifu Lindsay creates an environment where everyone is welcomed, respected, and encouraged to grow. Every session offers something new for learners at all levels.“

“Both instructor Andrew and instructor John have an excellent sense of humor and tons of patience, while still taking martial arts training seriously and challenging kids to succeed. Both my daughters took lessons here and had a lot of fun while learning a ton.“

“The class is great for young children. Lots of patience to help keep them focused. Class times are based on age and skill. Later classes for adults.“

“I’ve been attending the adult strength & conditioning classes with Master Gomes for years, and they’ve been nothing short of transformative. Master Gomes is an exceptional motivator who knows exactly how to bring out the best in each participant. His ability to recognize individual strengths and weaknesses, ensures everyone gets personalized attention. He’s a highly knowledgeable coach and strength trainer and places strong emphasis on injury prevention, which gave me confidence to push myself safely. The classes are fun, engaging, and highly effective—I’ve felt my strength & agility improve significantly. Highly recommend to anyone looking to work out in a supportive, dynamic environment. As a side note, I’m feeling stronger than my identical twin - who agrees (and who’s currently sidelined with an injury from working out at a different facility)!“

“I will be sharing my experiences for almost Two years joining, I’ve been working out, I took some self defense Classes, It’s a place where you feel comfortable, welcome and safe! It feels like home! It’s highly recommended to sign yourself up!! Minga“

“Amazing teaching style. The sensei’s here are great teachers. This is just amazing.-PJ“

“Our son loves sensei Brandan! We sense that Sensei understands the children development, he is fun and full of humor while being strict of having class expectations! We often say “what Sensi Brandan talked during taekwondo class today?” when our son forgets the polite words, it often works!
Our son runs a lot and shakes off a lot of energy at Taekwondo class. So far this is his favorite class
On top of that, Sensi Brandan is flexible with schedule changes, life happens!
We strongly recommend if your sweet little one needs to run off steam“

“A perfect place for kids to learn. Tiny Tigers is fun to get the youngest kids excited about learning and discipline. The next level classes are rigorous but forgiving to set a standard without discouraging new learners.

Would recommend to any family.“

“? Huge thanks to Grandmaster Jay and the entire team at JS US Taekwondo! ?

We are incredibly grateful for your 35 years of dedication to martial arts and for guiding William on his journey. In just 10 months, he has achieved his black belt, and this accomplishment wouldn’t have been possible without your expert coaching, encouragement, and wisdom.

As a 7th-degree black belt, Grandmaster Jay is not only a master of technique but also a true embodiment of the spirit of Taekwondo. His leadership and influence extend far beyond the mat, shaping students into confident, disciplined, and courageous individuals.

JS US Taekwondo is an outstanding school where students learn respect, resilience, and bravery. The rigorous training has helped William grow stronger, both physically and mentally. The entire coaching team here is phenomenal, creating an environment where students thrive and develop not just as martial artists, but as individuals.

Thank you, Grandmaster Jay, for being an amazing mentor and role model! We deeply appreciate everything you do! ??

“Mr. Davis is an Amazing & deeply knowledgeable individual. His teachings give you a full rounded picture of the progression of Japanese martial arts & applicable tools for modern day situations.“

“So happy we found One Step Beyond! My boys (6 and 9) tried soccer, baseball, flag football, but nothing “stuck” until we discovered karate back in March 2021. Fast forward to two classes a week (soon to be 4 ?), 2 belt tests and now a competition team/weapons (all dull, nothing sharp here), my boys couldn’t be happier. Sensei Marie and Sensei Erin are wonderful with the kids and it’s a wide range of all ages and backgrounds. I can honestly say that karate has also taught my boys discipline, fitness, patience and self esteem. I highly recommend One Step Beyond!“

“A great community first and then a martial arts school that teaches and fosters respect. My oldest child has been attending the school for 8 years and the youngest for 4 years now and they have both learned the values and rewards of discipline and respect while learning self defense and practicing skills and making friendships that will last a lifetime. What truly sets the school apart from other martial art's schools around it, is that it is taught by adults who volunteer their time and effort and do not get paid for it. You only pay the gym for the access to to gym premises and that fee goes only to the gym and not to the Cambridge Tang Soo Do, so it is not based in profits but simply on the passion of good hearted people. I urge people to come and see and learn more about it.“

“The experience that both my kids and we have shared is nothing but stellar. Master instructor Eric has taught them not only physical skills, but has made them stronger mentally as well. It has been a great journey for both of them with this program, and yet they strive to learn more. Worth every penny, the time and the sweat that has been put into their physical and mental training as children , growing into decent human beings. We have seen them progress so much for the past 8 years, acknowledging the work done by Shihan Eric, outside of home and school! Highly recommended martial arts training!“

“Come join the best martial arts class in town. Helping to build confidence in our youth to help them become who they strive to be. The best instructors around and Kyoshi is one of a kind. I wish I could tell you more but I don’t want to spoil all the fun. Come down and check it out for yourself. Just a trial run will have you joining and that I stand firm on.“

“Love the class! Randy is a very thorough and patient teacher. I would recommend learning tai chi with him. It has been a rewarding experience so far“
