Martial Arts Schools near Bernardsville

“Powertraining Taekwondo is fantastic! My 7 and 5-year-old daughters absolutely love it. Master Kown is amazing with kids making learning fun and engaging. They're building confidence and discipline while having a blast. 5 stars!“

“It has now been two years since we first met Sensei Darren, and I couldn't be more grateful for the positive impact he's had on my two sons. Sensei Darren exemplifies discipline and integrity – belts are never given but must be truly earned. His emphasis on self-respect and attention to detail, like ensuring belts are tied perfectly, reflects his philosophy that martial arts is not just about physical skills but a way of life. My sons have grown tremendously under his guidance, not only in their martial arts abilities but also in their confidence, respect, and perseverance. I highly recommend Sensei Darren to anyone looking for a mentor who instills life lessons far beyond the dojo.“

“I can’t say enough good things about Master Lim and everything he has done for my boys, including one who is incredibly special needs. They love it!!!“

“Cho’s Legacy has become a second home for our son. Master Acevedo is an incredible leader. He works everyone very hard but with compassion, understanding and an eye toward keeping it fun. He tailors his teaching approach to each student individually so that they can learn optimally. Thank you, Master Acevedo, for such an incredible dojo!“

“Teacher Israel is a great human being and professional in what he does, my son and I are students of the teacher and we are happy to be part of this great family.“

“My husband started at the Dojo 3 years ago and states that he has very much enjoyed working with Karen Sensi and Joe Sensi and engaging with older and younger students in class. The Dojo is a friendly and family type atmosphere where you can truly learn the art of martial arts. My husband is a father of 3 with an elderly parent to care for, the class schedule options are flexible and varied and works with his (and my) schedules. This is a fun, interesting, and engaging way to not only learn a martial art but also a way to a healthier lifestyle.“

“I've been going here for almost eight years now and it's great for many reasons. You get to join a polity and welcoming community while getting into shape. Overall a great place to go to.“

“My son and I were students for many years and had to leave due to moving to another state. The instructors are top notch and classes are professional, & excellent with safety as the number one concern. We miss training with the instructors and fellow students and highly recommend Mount Olive Karate Academy.“

“Our kids love TMMA. The masters are great in teaching taekwondo and motivating the kids with little stickers, but also pay attention to social skills as respect and values.Also, they strictly adhere to all Covid protocols, with small classes, masks, hand desinfection before/after the training etc.The lessons and belt tests can also be accessed via zoom, so parents (and other family members) can see how their kids progress.With every successfull belt test comes not only a new belt color, but also a trophy, which our kids are very proud of and love to display in their rooms. I can highly recommend this school!“

“I work a job that requires a lot of movement and lifting and the trainers have helped me learn the best ways to avoid injury. Highly recommend you check them out!“

“Awesome place for kids and adults! I was iffy joining at first since MMA was so new to me, but everyone makes you feel very welcomed and included- I’ve been at Hybrid now for 2+ years and absolutely love going. If I could go everyday I would!! Master Mike the main instructor has great energy and is immensely helpful, kind, and encouraging. Him and other instructors push you to be better mentally and physically, and work closely with everyone to make sure they are doing moves correctly. Classes are always so much fun, a great workout, and different every time you go. I highly recommend Hybrid!!“

“Grand Master Lee is awesome. His teaching of Hapkido, breathing techniques and cardio training is fun and a great way towards a healthy lifestyle.“

“We started at TOMA a couple years ago when we enrolled our son. He enjoyed it so much we eventually enrolled our daughter as well. They have improved their focus, confidence and martial art abilities while having a fun time. Master Jo and all the staff are amazing, friendly, supportive and talented. I joined as well and we all enjoy going to the family classes and doing activities together.“

“Not sure if this guy is talking about the same school. Children’s classes were pushed back to later time to be more accommodating. A letter was sent home to parents and Coach Pat told the kids about time change few weeks leading up to the date. Uniform could be purchased through school or online. Pat gave the info in what was needed if you wanted to buy online. The Gi has to be purchased through Pat because of school logo just like in any other sport. Cost was comparable to online. Classes started on time as parents are allowed to sit in on class which is niceMy son started about 6 months ago and what a great school. Theirs a class every day of the week for my son at a very reasonable time. Coach/owner Pat is great with the kids setting boundaries being stern but also providing an environment that the kids have fun and learn.My son was very young when he started n knew nothing. Pat still took him in and seeing my sons skill set grow and the confidence Pat instills in him is great to see My son looks forward to going every time.“
