“We absolutely love Master parks Black belt America of Marlboro. Instructors are very patient and encourage kids. Our daughter gained focus and confidence after joining here.“

“Black Belt America of Hazlet is a fantastic place for children to learn martial arts. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and truly invested in each student’s growth. The curriculum keeps kids engaged, motivated, and excited to learn while building confidence, discipline, and respect. Watching how positively the children respond to the program has been amazing. My only regret is not signing my child up sooner! Highly recommend to any parent looking for a positive and enriching activity for their child.“

“My child attends Master Kang’s Taekwondo, and we truly love it. The instructor connects incredibly well with the kids — he knows how to joke and keep classes fun while still maintaining strong discipline.

I especially appreciate that he teaches important values like respect and goal setting, encouraging the kids to work hard and show their energy with confidence. It’s more than just martial arts — it’s about building character. Highly recommend!“

“My son has been going here for about a year and I absolutely love it here. It is the perfect mix of discipline and fun for the kids. They make every child feel confident and strong while teaching new skills. I have watched my timid 3 year old son turn into a more assertive and confident 4 year old. All the instructors are amazing with the kids. We are so happy we sent him here and cannot thank them enough!“

“Just returned to Inferno after moving back to the area. Fantastic gym, fantastic people, and a fantastic environment to learn and grow in. Wish I would have moved back sooner!“

“Great dojo. My son has been here about 8 months and we’re extremely happy with it.

The senseis are the real deal—firm, structured, and clear with expectations, but still patient and great with the kids. There’s a level of discipline here that you don’t see at a lot of places.

What stood out to us right away is that it doesn’t feel corporate or watered down. It’s focused, authentic, and you can tell they care about developing the kids, not just running classes.

We come 3–4 times a week and my son genuinely wants to be there. He’s improved a lot in his judo, but more importantly, his confidence, discipline, and overall attitude have noticeably leveled up.

If you’re comparing schools, this is the kind of place you want your kid in.“

“What a wonderful experience for my six year old son. The facility is clean and the owners truly care about each family. Mr. Colin and Ms. Jackie are patient, kind and encouraging.“

“Such a great bunch of people, especially coach Fatjo and his staff!!! So happy we chose this place to come and learn BJJ and Muay Thai!!!“

“We left for a bit but when my kids wanted to restart , it was a no brainer! We are back and very happy. Sensei Evenson has an amazing team and I know my kids will learn at their pace -within a safe environment.“

“Professor Jon is a fantastic instructor with very deep technical knowledge. The school has a very friendly and welcoming community of students who are all great to train with. If you are thinking of trying out jiujitsu, definitely try this gym!“

“Master Ben and his team are the most fabulous professional, hard-working, talented child friendly, unique masters, and teachers of taekwondo out there! This is the best and only place to be!“

“Everything about this dojo is first class I genuinely love it here!The members all treat it like a home & Sensei is extremely approachable?“
