Martial Arts Schools near Teaneck

“Great atmosphere. Beautiful and fun to train and learn some serious self defense and skills that will go beyond the mat.“

“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!“

“Master Jay and Master Isaac cultivates an environment where the students are excited to attend classes. I’ve witnessed my daughter grow as a person and athlete and I am beyond grateful that she is trained by masters that deeply cares for their students. There is a great camaraderie and sense of family amongst the students and this stems from the masters immense support for their students. I highly recommend for all ages and levels, from beginners to advanced competitive levels.“

“This was one of the best activities I've ever signed my son up for. As an 8 year old with ADHD, many activities and sports are challenging for him to focus and stay in control, but Master Lee makes Tae Kwon Do fun, the right amount of challenging, and keeps the children disciplined. My son is learning life skills along with self defense and we have been very happy here!“

“At first my child was hesitant but both Master John and Sam were very welcoming. She now looks forward to class and is eager to learn Taekwondo. United Taekwondo not only teaches valuable self defense skills but also encourages respect and discipline. Highly recommend!“

“Classes are engaging and flexible times. My son has learned so much from Master Dan and Ms April. We love it! Highly recommended“

“This school is simply amazing - the instructors, the teaching methods, what we learn and the people!“

“We’ve had a wonderful experience with my son’s kendo lessons. Master Kim is patient, respectful, and incredibly skilled at working with children. He creates a structured yet encouraging environment that teaches not only kendo techniques, but also discipline, focus, confidence, and respect for others.

My son looks forward to every class and has grown so much — both physically and mentally — since starting. Master Kim takes the time to guide each student and make sure they feel supported, regardless of skill level. It’s clear he truly cares about the students and the art of kendo.

I highly recommend these lessons to any parent looking for a meaningful and enriching martial arts experience for their child.“

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Master Shin and this TKD center. My son absolutely loves Master Shin and looks forward to every single class.

She is not only an exceptional master, but also an inspiring and patient teacher who truly cares about her students. We’ve seen incredible growth in our son’s confidence, discipline, and respect — not just in his Taekwondo skills, but in his character overall.
We moved to another town, but we still travel back to this TKD center because it’s simply that great. Highly recommend!“

“Triumph is a fantastic place for children to grow both physically and mentally. A nurturing environment that focuses on enabling kids rather than perfecting them from an early age. It encourages kids to grow and keep practicing. Coaches are excellent; they know how to motivate their students.

Amazing place. And we love to keep continuing.

Highly recommend it if you want your kid to grow in a caring and positively encouraged environment.“

“I’m so happy I chose Tiger Schulmann in Englewood for my son! He’s grown so much emotionally, physically and respectfully ever since he started attending classes.“

“Coach Orlando and Coach Jay do a fantastic Job in teaching my son Muay Thai and BJJ, they have been teaching my son for a year now. They both have a positive attitude and make the experience fun and challenging for my son to excel.“

“Great place for anyone; from small kids to adults. Very positive and friendly atmosphere, while teaching respect and discipline. It really shows that their priority is to teach and see their students improve and advance. Very pleased with my daughters progress, looking forward to more tournaments/trophy's.“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Edge! I have 2 young children at Edge and they are thriving. Karate, overall, seems great for kids' development, but the team at Edge is extra special.

My children have had Senseis Eric and Jackie and both are really wonderful with young children. My Littles have wildly different personalities, and both are thriving due to the way Edge folks instruct, support, and guide them. The Senseis make the inherent challenge of karate (emotionally) safe and accessible to even young children. We are delighted to continue karate at Edge and tell our friends to come join us!“

“My son has been going here for years and he loves it! Great for his self esteem and physical strength“

“Great programing, staff, and trainers. Would recommend this place to any parent or to anyone looking to try something new!“

“This school has been a great experience for my 11-year old son for the last 2.5 years! He is very fond of Master Sam and is learning a great deal!“

“Incredible! Everyone here, from the instructors, to the owners are humble and want to help you out. I knew I wanted to be active but was not wanting to go to a traditional gym. Glad I stopped by and signed up. My favorite part is there are other people here in the same boat as me, looking to make a change and be around like minded individuals. There’s no pressure and you are never forced into contact or anything that makes you uncomfortable. It’s nice when your “no face hits” boundary is respected. 5 stars!“

“This is an incredible school. My son loves it (5 yo) and I can tell he is improving. Thank you Master Kim and Staff!“

“The best, most authentic, skilled and sacred to art dojo you can go to. Highly recommend.“

“Sensei Zumo Is the best he has an amazing history as a champion and countless years as a coach. It’s a life changing experience to join his school totally recommend“

“My son has been attending Tiger Kim's school for a few years now and has really enjoyed his experience. The school is well-organized, communicative with parents, and has created a family-like environment for all its students. It also has a great waiting/seating area where you can watch your kid's class. The Masters train the kids with a healthy balance of discipline and fun and are very supportive and patient. There are also a lot of fun activities planned for the kids during the year like a spring picnic, holiday party, and a Halloween party. In general, I would highly recommend Tiger Kim's Taekwondo school for kids of all ages.“

“Theeeeee best taekwondo center there is ! My son has been training there since 5 years old….. With the love, support, discipline, and teachings from Master Sasha, he is now a 2nd Dan (black belt ) ! The Masters at United TKD are highly skilled and want only the best for every student that steps onto the mat! I could not recommend this place enough ! More than just a martial arts training facility, the students walk away with many useful skills they will carry through life!“
