“Sensei Max and his team are awesome. They are very welcoming and great with kids. I think they remembered our kid’s name after the first lesson and welcome him directly every time we come in. I would definitely recommend giving them a try and I bet your kids will have a great experience.“
“Signed my 9 year old up for a free intro class. I was impressed! Staff are friendly and professional, greeting us right away when we came in. My son was welcomed and jumped right in. The instructor had the kids moving and engaged the entire 1 hour class. Struck the right balance-lots of learning and reasonable expectations, while maintaining a fun and comfortable environment for a youth sport. Kids in the class seemed to like the instructors and I could tell they were approachable and kind. At the end of the class my son ran to me and asked if he could sign up for more, and we did!“
“Excellent studio! My son has been attending for about 1.5 years and loves it. The instructors are great with kids and are extremely knowledgeable.“

“Capoeira is wonderful mix of martial arts, movement/acrobatics, and music. It has a rich history and tradition. Capoeira Minnesota is an excellent school in all the various aspects of the art. Students are challenged to grow in different directions, and instruction is top-notch and very well planned. Most importantly, my experience is that Capoeira Minnesota is a welcoming community of people, were everyone is supported, cared for, and celebrated in their Capoeira journey. Training with Capoeira Minnesota has been hugely beneficial for me and has led me to expand the boundaries of what I thought I could ever be able to do. Capoeira Minnesota has brought much joy into my life! I highly recommend it.“
“Our kids love coming and were so excited to earn their belts. Our eldest is neurodivergent and fits right in. We love that Mr. Kahn doesn't "dumb down" lessons for any kid. They are all expected to achieve. We love the emphasis on respect and also how Mr. Kahn and his staff connect with each child. He's so good with kids --- he's a terrific young man! He challenges our boys to be their best. Sometimes the lessons are a few minutes short, and we wish they went the full 30 minutes, and also the email communications can be a bit much, but overall we are impressed and happy to have found this studio. As a mom of boys, I also love that there are female instructors. Way to go Kahn Martial Arts!“

“I have been a student of Guro Chris McWethy for 3 years. He is a very good teacher who is very knowledgeable and a good communicator. The class is well organized and always interesting. I have learned real world basic and intermediate self defense techniques. There is also a lot of stick and some knife work. One night per week is sparring with padded sticks.“

“I am Mohamed Daali I like master nick. He is great coach. i am attending his classes for more than one year. I was very bad at kicking now i am a champion cause of his coaching and teaching.“
“This is an amazing place. It's much more than a training school. It's a community that fosters discipline, cooperation, commitment and love. My two children started here from scratch and have just completed their black belt test. We'd just moved to the US when they started. This school inspired it's students to improve in all facets of their lives. It's very family oriented too. The instructors are efficient and strict while caring and understanding, a difficult balance to maintain. The owner and master trainer, Mr. Peter Wahlstrom, is also a university professor. It shows. He's more than an instructor. He's a mentor. He has had a wonderful positive impact on my daughter (14)and son (12). Excellent school in every way. It's rare to find a place like this nowadays.“
“Master Kim is fantastic! He literally treats his students like they are his own kids. My daughter loves being a part of Kukkiwon Taekowndo Academy!“
“I have trained at Midwest Karate (Art of the empty hand) for several years ever since graduating from the University of Minesota under Sinsai Fusaro( in 1973 where he taught). When the dojo opened at Dayton's Bluff, I continued to train under Sinsai Forest,Joe, and Anita. The oraganization has a strong reputation for integrity, flexible class schedules, and reasonable rates. As Master Ginchin Funakoshi stated in the preface to his 1975 book,"Karate-Do, My Way of Life," Karate-do is not merely a sport that teaches self defense blocks, strikes, and kicks but a continued training discipline that promotes strong mind/body to help provide a defense against illness and disease as well. Thanks to his devotion to Karate-do, he never had to take medicne or consult a physician. Shotokan karate's traditional training system of stretching, basics, kata, and kumite (sparring) provides an outstanding opportunity to gain self confidence, strength and balance to feel more comfortable in any self defense situation that may arise.

“This is a great place to learn Taekwondo! Master Brown is such a great teacher and is patient with the students. I highly recommend this place and encourage people to join.“
“Very welcoming and is like a second family. I don't think I will ever come across a better dojo than this one.“
“Through the dedication, hard work, and fun given by this Academy, I feel welcomed and respected always.I am honored to be apart of a committed bunch of individuals by Grand Master Lee, Mrs. Lee, Master Brandon Lee, and Master Brian Lee.... and also respected by all members of this great Taekwondo Martial Art School. They are a great family to be connected to and they provide assistance as much as possible.“
“I dropped in here for a free demo class on a Saturday while looking for a new reality-based jiu jitsu gym to call home after five years (pandemic interrupted) at another Minnesota-based gym after deciding I needed a change. I arrived only 5 minutes before class, sorry, but Steve welcomed me with open arms and the place was filled with the sounds of the students having fun talking before starting. Steve had a great relationship with the students and commanded their attention with minimal effort. Light stretches to start, followed by increasingly intense partner bag work blending kicks and punches. Then came technique which today was some sit through escapes from bottom. Class finished three rounds of rolling and then everyone seemed to be welcome to hang out and talk, stretch, or even keep rolling. Steve invited me at this time to roll with him which I love to see. An owner engaged and willing to roll with all students! He was patient but forceful and made me tap a half dozen times before he had had enough! The diversity of the students is great, many women present and a great age range so anybody should feel welcome. No snobbery here with uniform rules and a focus on fun while learning a very real and practical version of jiu jitsu. Nothing fancy but a tremendous value thanks to building ownership offering the lowest tuition rates in town. Truly a unique and historic school! Thank you again for letting me join you!“

“The training, atmosphere, cleanliness, and support here is top tier. I've trained at several gyms over the years and none hold a candle to Warrior's Cove. The coaches take a stake in your training and give you an individualized plan to progress.This is a great place to become a better, smarter, stronger, and ultimately more capable version of yourself.“
