Martial Arts Schools in Durham

“I took the CCW class with Stewart in February. He was completely professional, personable, kind, and thorough regarding the ins-and-outs of CCW. I walked away having learned quite a lot! I would definitely recommend if looking for a CCW course in the Raleigh-Durham area.“

“I am new to the Triangle and just started training at Elevate MMA after training for several years at another academy. It is not easy to change academies, but the crew at Elevate have been extremely inviting. The facilities are great, the coaches are excellent, and you absolutely cannot beat the culture. I think I found my new home :)“

“Our daughter started taking classes about a month ago and really loves it! This is really the first extracurricular activity she has shown continued excitement for and comes home to practice on her own. We cannot wait to see how she progresses with the new skills and confidence she has already gained.“

“I started at Shaw's about 4 years ago and I have had such a great experience. I have met some of my best friends there and I have had the honor of getting to know both Mr. Powell and Mr. Shaw. I just got my Purple belt yesterday.

This is not just a place where you punch and kick, this is a family.“

“My kids just started attending here, and they’ve been having a lot of fun! The monthly fees are very affordable, and the staff is very helpful. recommend.“

“I have known Master Jae for 3 years now and can say only great things about him and his ability to work with and teach kids. He knows how to walk the line to firmly push these kids to do their best, while also being kind, caring and fun. He is a natural when it comes to working with kids with anxiety like my daughter and knows how far to push her to get her to do her best and knows how to calmly speak to her when her anxiety gets in the way and makes her doubt herself. He truly cares about these kids and wants to see them succeed not only in martial arts but in school and their home life too. I can't say enough wonderful things about Master Jae, you won't find anyone better to teach your children.“
