“Hasset’s jiu jitsu Is a fantastic school. My son loves it and he’s learning so much and even just the first few weeks. It makes me want to join myself. The coaches are wonderful and very patient. It’s such a pleasure to watch my son. Learn the great art“

“I went to the Sunday open mat and it was a great experience. Jason, the owner, was very welcoming and made sure to make myself and my teammates feel comfortable.

All the guys rolling at the open mat were very friendly and kept things safe. You did not need to worry about anyone hurting you or making you feel uncomfortable.

Overall, this gym is great and if you’re in the area it is worth a try!“

“Our son began attending EMA at the age of five, when he was quite the little dragon. Since then, he has transformed into a caring, disciplined, and focused child. Branson eagerly looks forward to attending class, not only to learn self-defense but also valuable life lessons. From little Dragon to junior Black belt, we are so proud of how far he has come with the awesome mentors EMa has provided us. We can’t wait to see what his future holds. Thanks team EMA!“

“Incredible instructors. I take a fitness class and the workouts are incredible. Instructors take the time to explain the movements and what they are for. Extremely knowledgeable. It is also a great cardio workout.“

“Master Park’s Black Belt America has great Masters and instructors, who really care and make training fun and safe for everyone. The classes are awesome for both kids and adults and super friendly atmosphere and top quality programs. Totally recommend.“

“Our daughter has been going to Tiger Schulmann’s and she absolutely loves it! Sansei Julliano truly has a gift from God when it comes to teaching—he connects with every age like it’s the easiest thing in the world. Justin will make you sweat no matter what (in the best way possible!), and Naza always makes sure you have everything you need for class… no matter what :)

All the classes are awesome, and the atmosphere is even better. There are no bad people here trying to hurt you—lol! Just a supportive, welcoming community where any age can learn, grow, and have fun.

If you’re thinking about joining, don’t hesitate. You’ll love it just like we do!“

“Master Will is a true Master in every sense of the word—patient, dedicated, and fully committed to each child. Master Will inspires, guides, and sets high standards while patiently helping each child achieve their very best. His genuine love for teaching truly shows, and we are incredibly grateful that kids have the privilege of learning from him! His instructors - the black belt guys are great too! They are all very friendly, and the kids always look forward to go to classes.

(We have seen many other masters and schools, where some “teach” for sake of business…) We are very happy to find the Walter Martial Arts- no doubt it’s the best Taekwondo school in NJ.“

“My son attended this center before we moved, and he loved it so much. We have wonderful memories of it“

“We couldn’t be happier with ATA in Parlin. It is absolutely worth the investment of both time and money. We have two kids enrolled, and the growth we’ve seen in their behavior, discipline, skills, and social development has been incredible.
The instructors truly take martial arts seriously. They teach with knowledge, structure, and a strong emphasis on respect. It’s not just about learning kicks and punches; it’s about building character, confidence, and self-control.
Our kids have gained so much more than martial arts skills. They’ve learned responsibility, focus, and how to carry themselves with confidence. The instructors are professional, patient, and genuinely care about each student’s progress.
Highly recommend to any parent looking for a program that builds strong kids inside and out.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Taekwondo School That Truly Changes Lives

I’ve been here for less than a month, and I’m already learning my third form — but what impressed me even more is the mindset, discipline, and support this school provides. This isn’t just kicks and punches… this is a place where real growth happens.

The instructor has a rare gift — he understands people. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, family struggles, or trying to find clarity, he knows how to connect, motivate, and inspire. He speaks from real-life experience, and that’s what makes his leadership powerful. You don’t just train here… you heal, you focus, and you become better inside and out.

If you’re looking for a Taekwondo school that builds skill, confidence, and character, this is the place.
Highly recommended. Five stars all the way.

Thank you for all you do!!“

“I've been training at Mountain Martial Arts as an adult student, and I can't say enough great things about this school. If you're looking to learn traditional Goju-Ryu karate in a welcoming, disciplined, and authentic environment, this is the place. The instructors are incredibly knowledgeable, and they do a fantastic job balancing tradition with practical application. There's a real sense of community here — everyone supports one another, regardless of age or experience level. I’ve gained not only skills, but also a deeper appreciation for the art of Goju-Ryu. Highly recommend!“

“Our second home! ? We love UTA. It’s such a true family feel, my boys learn respect and discipline while having so much fun and staying active. The staff is top-notch, so loving, patient, and helpful.
The schedule is super flexible, the environment is amazing, and my kids absolutely love being part of Team UTA. They look up to the older students, and everyone blends together so beautifully. We’re so grateful to be part of the UTA fam! ?✨“

“Tiger Schulmann’s in East Brunswick has been an amazing experience. The instructors are professional, motivating, and truly care about each student’s progress. They focus not only on martial arts skills but also on discipline, confidence, and respect.

The classes are structured, high-energy, and challenging in the best way. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, they meet you at your level and push you to improve. The environment is clean, organized, and very welcoming.

I’ve seen in my son real growth in strength, focus, and self-confidence. If you’re looking for a supportive community and high-quality training, I highly recommend Tiger Schulmann’s East Brunswick!“

“My daughter has been going to Satori for years! The teachers are amazing and their programs are very good. It can get crowded during busy/days and hours, or special events but don't let that deter you from trying this place out!“

“This is the best Taekwondo school in the area. Grandmaster Yoo creates a holistic and well rounded individual while providing excellent martial arts skills in the form of Taekwondo.

Discipline, Courage, Respect, Collaboration, Team Work, Confidence are just some of the values and individual comes out with.

We have been going here for more than 8 years now and the Monmouth Junction Dojo is nothing short of our 2nd home. My kids started when they were 3 years old.

There is no shortcuts. Just pure hard work.

Highly recommend this Taekwondo school.“

“Excellent classes and instructors, great self-defense skills, good workouts, and a lot of fun, too. Highly recommended.“

“Great place for kids. Every reasonable price for unlimited classes per week. Great place for adults for cardio workouts. Got to credit the instructor for amazing teaching. Very experience actually learnt from the school himself. 6th degree black, which takes like 30 years of experience. YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS PLACE OUT!!“

“My child has been going here for the past 6 years and has very much enjoyed the experience. Not only has it improved my child’s physical fitness but also helped gain confidence, discipline and self control. Chief Master C is a great teacher!!!“
