Martial Arts Schools in Minneapolis

“My kids and I have been going to MKG for over a year now. We tried a few other places before deciding on MKG. I was specifically looking for a place that had great coaching and skill development for youth. The youth coaches are fantastic and the curriculum hits on a lot of different skills and has both cardio and strength training components. The coaches are responsive, skilled, and create an environment of focused learning and fun for all levels. My kids like to practice their kali stick patterns together at home for fun without being asked. Also, the gym itself is very inclusive. I take an adult class while my kids have class, and because there are so many long-time students who are happy to teach newcomers the basics, it feels like a private lesson every time I go. Classes are both a physical and mental workout, so it’s a phenomenal way to forget about a stressful day at work. Another plus is they are really flexible with the membership. We took a break this winter because my kids were on a speedskating team, and it was very easy to pause the membership and pick up where we left off. We really enjoy being members of the MKG community.“

“Excellent studio! Instructors and staff go above and beyond to support students in and outside of the dojang. Summer camp has been a blast for kids with all the activities and field trips around the city.

My daughter has found self confidence thanks to MN Star!“

“We have twin boys going to Kindergarten in Richfield. We looked at *lots* of after-school options and are so glad we went with Hwa Rang Do. The kids enjoy getting better at martial arts — it's so fun to see them practicing their moves at home, and they felt so proud when they graduated to the next belt color. And the portion of the program that isn't martial arts is exactly what we wanted in an after-school program: the instructors are great with the kids, and find a balance between letting them goof off and get out energy and keeping the environment calm and organized. Every time we pick up the kids they're in the middle of some creative new art or craft, from making gingerbread houses to making their own "swords" from cardboard to beading and sculpting. I really like the physical space too — lots of board games, art supplies, and books, as well as foosball, an aquarium, and couches to just hang out. We highly recommend this program! Thanks to all the staff!“
