“Corey Family Martial Arts has been an incredible experience for our daughter, helping her grow in strength, skill, and confidence. The program provides a perfect balance of discipline and fun, allowing her to develop martial arts techniques while also gaining valuable life skills. She has made wonderful friendships along the way, and the supportive atmosphere encourages teamwork and respect. Beyond the physical training, the structured environment ensures that students stay on top of their responsibilities with time for homework and reading too.

The staff at Corey Family Martial Arts goes above and beyond in communication, program planning (both for students and adults!), and fostering a positive experience for every child. They create a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment where students feel supported and motivated to do their best. Their dedication to each student’s growth—both inside and outside of martial arts—is evident, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the impact they’ve had on our daughter’s development. Thank you CFMA!!“

“Mr StClair is a fantastic treacher. You can really tell that he is passionate about helping kids be better versions of themselves by learning the confidence and integrity that comes from learning martial arts.“

“5 star review for Achieve, the best instructors. Positive approach with kids, amazingly taught my rowdy 3 year old focus and structure. Master Brandon is my kids favorite instructor and mimicks him at home. Master Bryan impressively commands attention from a room full of preschoolers. My husband and also take classes and coach Terrence does a great job sweating us out. A healthy family pass time. Thank you to all instructors and coaches at Achieve.“

“Excellent choice for your child. Our daughter has gone here for 6 years now and we are very happy with the results.“

“Professional, friendly and knowledgeable staff! I was nervous to take a class by myself but they made me feel right at home! Spotless locker rooms!“

“I took a self defense class with 10 of my friends and I highly recommend! We had such a fun time, but also learned a lot too. It was empowering to discuss and practice tools of defense and ways we as women can be more aware of our surroundings and how to act in a threatening situation if needed. It’s definitely a class to take multiple times to learn more each time and to be confident in implementing skills we learned. Good instructors, good teaching, good times! Thanks Aikido!“

“Our now 10 year old child signed-up with Master Wilson’s studio just after their 5th birthday. Though we moved out of Charlotte after 2 years, we continued to make the drive twice weekly. FOR 3 YEARS!! Sadly, this year, with our schedules filling-up, we had to say “farewell” as the commute became difficult for us.Master Wilson and his instructors were a great pleasure to work with - as both mentors and friends. Our hope is that we find a studio like this in our area. (Still searching!)“

“My daughter has been coming here for almost 2 years. Mr. M is amazing with the kids and keeps them engaged! Classes are only 45 min and you can come as many times a week as you'd like! There is a trial period before the year commitment to see if your child really does enjoy it. I love the tools she is learning in life and he encourages positive behaviors in class but also at home and school. I would highly recommend this location to anyone. The only downside is the size of the dojo-we are outgrowing the building but hopefully a bigger location is in the future!!“

“I've been a student at Focus Martial Arts for almost three years now, and the experience has been nothing short of amazing. Sifu Ryan's mastery of Wing Tsum and attention to detail is what sets this school apart from others. He takes the time to ensure every student understands not just the 'how' but also the 'why' behind each technique. Hands down the best Wing Tsum school in Charlotte!“
