Martial Arts Schools near Gladstone

“All the teachers are friendly and organized . The students are also friendly and helpful to each other. Best place to be !!“

“I love this place. The owners are family, and love teaching, and love their student. I was struggling financially, and they gave me a scholarship until I could afford to pay. The scholarship was for myself AND my daughter. I will never go to another dojo again. We're KICK MA for life.“

“I wish I could give this place 100 stars. Palmer and his instructors are amazing. They meet every student on their own level and inspire growth. I for awhile wondered if this was beneficial for my 9 year old going on his third year. That was quickly answered when I surprised him in our pool and grabbed him from behind… He quickly created space using self defense tactics. My whole family laughed and I threatened him he’d never come back.lol although that’s why my children are here. Not only do they gain important survival skills but also to learn discipline and self respect.

Thank you pride martial arts.“

“Baer Swords is a fun, engaging, and interesting way to get in a great workout. They teach Historical European Martial Arts - the art of sword fighting. Beneath Baer Swords' casual, laid-back atmosphere is a wealth of historical knowledge and expertise. This school has produced two fighters ranked in the top 50 best sword fighters in the world. The staff are as friendly as they are knowledgeable. They make an effort to learn your name and ensure everyone is having fun. The simple drills and principles they teach are approachable to anyone. Even people with no background in athletics or martial arts are welcome here. You don't need to be big and muscular to use a sword - techniques such as leverages allow even the smallest of fighters to seize control of an opponent's blade and safely score a hit. Safety is also a big priority of the school. The proper use of protective gear such as helmets, padded jackets, gauntlets, as well as reliable techniques have allowed the school to operate for years safely. Even while using historically-accurate swords as heavy as four pounds, the students can engage each other in sparring without serious injury. In addition to being a great place to learn and work out, Baer Swords is also a community. Between classes the students discuss which swords are coolest, tabletop RPGs, or put to the test whether two axes could beat a pike. Whether you're looking to become a legendary swordsman, or just goof around, Baer Swords is the place to go.“

“My 11 year old son joined the academy the beginning of this year and we absolutely love it here. In these 4 short months he’s gained many marital arts skills and friendships with his classmates. Sensei Sanders and his family were welcoming from the first day. Definitely recommend Omega Karate!“

“Ms. Robin is an excellent toddler herder! Lol. The routine of washing hands and feet before class and washing after is awesome for germ control. The equipment is clean; the program is well thought-out and rotates each week.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The owners are amazing and so are all of the instructors!! They are so patient with the kids and my son loves it! My son looks forward to going and has fun while also learning new techniques! I wish we would have started sooner than we did! Highly recommend!!“

“First of all let me say that the owner Frass has been exceptional with training my son in private lessons and with the other kids in class. While he is very passionate, he is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and kind coach.

I had to request to join the gym and sign up there was never any high pressure and the agreement was explained.

The gym is clean, other trainees are helpful, coaches attentive and the hours are great for working adults to make it on time.

If I were to change and add something it would be that there was a women's Jiu jitsu class added to the schedule, but outside of my selfish request , this gym and it's coaches are excellent.“
