Martial Arts Schools near Minnetonka

“Great instructors. Very supportive, engaging and helpful staff. I appreciate the variety of different coaching styles between the instructors.“

“My son started at American Karate Studio when he was four. He was confused at first that he might get in trouble for “hitting things” ;) but once he understood that karate is about learning skills, self defense, and growing stronger, he really took to it. He loves the structure, the exercise, and all the friends he has made. I love the wonderful mentorship he has been given by Mr Marotta and the other great instructors at the karate school; he has developed focus, discipline, and determination over the years. It has also done wonders for his self-esteem. He now has black belt in his sights, which is great accomplishment to look forward to, and he is excited to work toward reaching that amazing milestone thanks to Mr Marotta and his team at AKS!“

“Joined about 2 months ago. The instructors are very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. If I didn’t understand something they would break it down in a way I would understand. Bodie has been a huge inspiration for me and really has a passion for what he does. If you’re looking for a supportive community of like minded people who are all trying to learn and grow. This is the gym for you.“

“My three kiddos have been thriving in confidence, strength and happiness since joining. The entire team is top notch and we are so lucky to have the whole team impacting our community in the most positive way! Give a two week trial and you will see what I mean.“

“Master Moon's Eden Prairie studio has been a great addition to our son's portfolio of activities. The flexibility of class times have been very helpful in allowing him to progress and allow him the opportunity to now test for his black belt. Our son even took two years off only to realize that he missed it and they welcomed him back as if he'd never left.“

“My kids are loving Impact! Everyone has been so kind & welcoming. My kids look forward to each class. Can’t wait to watch the continue to grow their skills“

“My two girls love coming to class and the school has been welcoming and very beginner friendly. Lots of class options for our family and they’ve made friends. Overall we are grateful to the instructors for challenging our girls and maintaining a fun atmosphere where they can learn and grow alongside their peers.“

“Great gym for a drop in! Great home gym! Very respectful, I appreciate them for letting me train while here for work.“

“Great instructors and staffs. The Thrones are awesome. We love coming back to attend classes or karate camps here. The best karate school designs we ever came across!“

“Love this place! I studied in Korea and am so happy I found this dojong for my boys here in the states. Great teaching staff!!!“

“Instructors are local legends on the karate scene in the Twin Cities. Absolutely recommend. On Wednesdays there is a Krav class which is nice addition to classic Karate and Tae Kwon Do curriculum. No pressure on belt progression- test when you or your kid are actually ready and good with the current set of learnings as you progress. Personally, Id encourage people to try it and if you find a passion and have some drive to excel and really learn what this is about, that is the basics for being a good student. They have a great culture and want each person to be the best version of themselves, not necessarily the best in the room. This is not a group of teachers that will let you slide on the technical details however- trust me- that's really important. That what separates this particular brand from other Mom and Pop mall karate operations. Last work of advice... the real learning starts at black belt. Mastery is a journey- start as soon as you can and let that journey be long!“

“This is the place I would take my new comer the Da Jo is vary nice and clean the instructors are top notch thay work with an open heart.“

“Wonderful program for young kids. Great with our busy 4 year old boy. Coach Erikson is wonderful, experienced and has the patience of a saint. Great with our little guy!“

“Grand Master Malone was very thorough with his introduction of his martial arts class instruction and learning! Grand Master Malone is very professional and very respectful to a persons wants and needs! I highly recommend GrandMaster Malones martial arts class to everyone!“
