Martial Arts Schools near Midland Park

“My son had a fun and exciting birthday celebration here. The instructors were great. They really kept the kids engaged. Highly recommended.“

“Bill Stevens is a great Karate coach for kids. Our kid loved his class, and insisted to come twice a week despite we sometimes would have a schedule conflict. Bill, in my opinion, invest a lot of time to make his class fun and educative. It’s not just a karate class, but a life lesson to teach the kids discipline while keeping them entertained.

Thank you Sensei!“

“Master Chris, Master Mike, and their team are truly exceptional. Over the past 8 years for my daughter and 5 years for my son, both progressing from no belt to black belt (first and second degree), they have cultivated remarkable skill and confidence. The staff is highly professional, fostering discipline while ensuring the learning process is enjoyable for the children. Additionally, the program provides a substantial amount of physical exercise. I highly recommend Absolute Martial Arts to anyone considering enrolling their children—it's an investment you won't regret.“

“I have been training at this gym for two months and feel my conditioning has been improving drastically. You get both a cardio workout and at the same time learn self defense. Highly recommend. Ricky the owner is a great guy and made me feel welcomed as soon as I stepped foot in the gym.“

“Wonderful experience. Very professional and kid centered. Works on self esteem and discipline while helping children grow in all aspects. We highly recommend!! Master Lee is amazing!“

“If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve felt the stress so common to consuming social media. It can make you feel sedentary, helpless, aimless, and even lonely.

“Love it here! The instructors are awesome, know what they are doing, and totally supportive. It's a family atmosphere. I started my daughter and then a few months later I joined. Best decision ever.“

“I started taking my son here a few weeks ago. He is a really, really shy 4 year old who has been struggling with his confidence so I had low expectations when it came to him participating in the class. He has totally come alive in these classes and fully participates the entire time with no tears. He’s even raising his hand to volunteer. His confidence and self esteem are through the roof. Master Lee is amazing with the kids and knows how to get them engaged while also making it fun.“

“NY United BJJ has truly changed my life. I decided to join a class on a whim, and almost two years later it’s become a foundation of my life. Besides what I’ve gained physically, it’s changed my outlook on life, inspiring me to value discipline, commitment and to believe in myself.

Khyl is an amazing instructor. He’s tough and will push you to your limit—no games or excuses here. But he truly cares, so it’s a rare combination of motivation without the harshness.

The team is beyond wonderful . I had no athletic experience at all, and still everyone was so welcoming and willing to help me learn. There’s a sense of deep humility and a pure desire to share with others, regardless of belt level.

I truly have no words to describe what this school has done for me. If you want authenticity, focus and pure drive—this is where it’s at.“

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with Chon-Ji Academy! Our 7-year-old son now 8 absolutely loves going to class — he’s always excited and full of energy when it’s time for training. The instructors are patient, kind, and encouraging, while still teaching discipline and respect. We’ve seen big improvements in his focus at, confidence, and listening skills — his teacher even mentioned it! While he still gets distracted at home sometimes (as kids do ?) The environment is very family-friendly and positive, and they truly care about each student. Highly recommended for any parent looking for a great martial arts program for kids!“

“My boys have been going to Faustinis for a year and a half and it has been so wonderful. Sensei Lynn and Sensei Brianna are wonderful teachers! Karate has helped my kids with their attention spans and their confidence and has also really helped them learn how to work hard for something. I would recommend this place to anyone with grade-school aged children!“

“Erick Tavares is an outstanding coach. He clearly has the knowledge and experience. When I tried out his class for the first time I was very nervous, but Erick along with the other professors are very welcoming and kind. They're willing to take the time to teach beginners like myself. If anyone wants to learn good quality jiu jitsu from a trained professional, this is definitely the place.“

“Tony is a fantastic instructor with a great sense of humor! Tony is very good at spotting what you are missing in techniques and helps you build the muscle memory to use these skills in the real world. Also worth mentioning the others in the class are very nice and helpful as well, I always enjoy my time here!

My favorite part of this martial art is that the goal is to survive using everything/anything you can versus all forms of attack, and because of that I feel much more confident to defend myself.“

“our son LOVED his week at nature camp! he is really happy and enjoyed exploring the forest and learning about all of its inhabitants while making friends. Candace and Ray were so welcoming and understanding of kids who need a little extra time to feel comfortable in a new environment. at the end of the program our son was so confident and proud to take us on the trail their group would take. so glad we decided to sign him up for camp and that there is a nature program that also involves discovering and studying the environment a little further. looking forward to going to camps again in the future!“
