Martial Arts Schools near Lynn

“Lemme tell ya the best class ever! I went for the first time to punch out about a month ago and I go every Monday & Wednesday. The energy of the staff and sensei are so supportative but you walk out dripping sweat. I was always so nervous to do a class but I felt comfortable right away, I joined Sensei's karate class as well. The class works for every one! sensei makes it easy for you to adjust to harder or easier workouts based on your ability. I'm so happy I found this class I live all the way in Medford and it's totally worth the commute I recommend this work out studio for anyone and everyone, you belong here :)“

“From the start, the instructors created an environment that makes people want to step up. New students are treated like they have been part of the dojo for years with steady guidance, real patience, and a level of professionalism that sets the tone right away. The atmosphere is focused, supportive, and grounded in respect, and the dojo itself is kept immaculate.

The kids program is what first caught my attention. The way they build confidence, discipline, and leadership in their young students is remarkable. I saw the changes in my stepson almost immediately in how he carried himself, how he listened, how he tried. It was so well done that I ended up joining too, and I have seen the results in my own training.

Authentic Karate earned that trust. They have built a space where people genuinely grow, and they do it through consistency, community, and excellent teaching.“

“Fun safe and hard Judo practice, technical randori partners, kind but tough teachers that are very expierienced, seasoned and practical. Overall very safe place and great competitive atmosphere for all levels. Amazing work with children and they're advanced classes look amazing. They are very skilled teachers and know how to get the best out of everyone, the nervousness goes away with time and self confidance boost from the children to the people up in age is fun to see.“

“Cervizzi's-Lynnfield has become a second home for my family. Both my 6 yr old and 4 yr old take classes here

The most transformative experience has been with my son. He is diagnosed with ADHD and has thrived here in ways I didn't expect. The intense focus on self-control and regulation that is built into their curriculum has been so impactful for him. The Senseis are masterful at balancing a disciplined, goal-oriented environment with a fun, warm, and highly supportive atmosphere.
​The results are so clear that my 4-year-old daughter, who has a very big personality, also signed up this summer! The program has been fantastic for her, too, as they dedicate so much time to her overall discipline and focus. The Senseis don't just teach kicks and punches; they instill the valuable life skills of respect, focus, and self-discipline in both our children.
​If you're looking for a martial arts studio that feels like a family while genuinely teaching kids how to be better people, this is the place.“

“The staff is amazing and friendly here! Special shoutouts to Mr. George and Ms. Lisa for motivating and inspiring me to get back into the gym after 10 years. I enjoy their small talk (health tips and compliments :). Meeting them was one of the best things that happened to me. Forever grateful thank you! I am now part of the kickboxing class led by Andrea, she is awesome and pushes you until you're on your knees! LOL. Highly Recommend everyone to stop by and sign up well worth it in the end!“

“My son started in September at just 5 years old, and the growth we’ve seen has been incredible. He has gained so much confidence in himself and truly looks forward to going each week.

Master O and Sensei Sean are both so kind, patient, and positive with the kids. They create an encouraging environment where children feel supported while learning discipline and respect. We are so grateful for the impact they’ve had on our son and highly recommend Master O’s to any family looking for a great karate program.“

I’m so happy we found this dojo—highly recommend it to any parent looking for quality martial arts training for their child!“

“I started taekwondo three years ago. Going to Middleton US Taekwondo is the highlight of my day. All of the instructors are very caring and nice and they treat everybody with respect.Master Han leads his staff by example and I have learned so much from his teachings. He always encourages us to push to a higher level and I have enjoyed going to competitions as well. I highly recommend Middleton U.S taekwondo.“

“I recommend it. A pleasant and professional place with a lot of discipline and security, and good teaching.“

“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.“

“Outstanding studio that fosters discipline, hones focus, teaches respect, encourages persistence, and builds confidence for kids to grow and thrive.“

“Training at Beverly Blue Wave Taekwondo for two years as a side hobby turned out to be one of the most empowering experiences of my life. The owner, Sabumnim Mike Anthony, is not only an 8th-degree black belt (one of only 16 in the entire U.S.), but also an incredible mentor and leader. His passion and excitement for teaching, especially with the kids, is truly inspiring.

Beyond the physical training, Sabumnim Anthony embodies Christian values and is there for his students through both their greatest achievements and toughest struggles. He lifts them up, motivates them, and instills discipline, confidence, and perseverance.

On top of the unparalleled instruction from a world-class martial artist, the affordable pricing is unbelievable ($40/month)—making high-quality Taekwondo training accessible to all families. If you’re looking for authentic, traditional Taekwondo in a supportive and uplifting environment, this is the place to be! Highly recommend!“

“Wonderful local Karate lessons. Very clean and always willing to accommodate the kids and clients!“
