It’s wonderful to see them enjoying it so much and always trying their best. What I love most is the instructors—you can tell they truly love kids, and they teach with so much energy and friendliness. I am incredibly satisfied and highly recommend this place!“

I wholeheartedly recommend Hong Ik Bronxville/all sites for children or for any young adults. It instills invaluable discipline, respect, and self-belief.

Adults will discover a powerful path to enhanced physical vitality, mental clarity, and overall well-being. It's a truly exceptional place that delivers genuine, positive change to mind, body & spirit.

Thank you Master Oh & your amazing team for guiding our son.“

“I was searching for a female-friendly space to learn self-defense when I found this gym, and it has easily been one of my best finds of 2025. Coaches Jhaydon and Orlando are exceptional—supportive, encouraging, and highly skilled. Their coaching in Muay Thai and BJJ has helped me build confidence while training in an environment that is both welcoming and disciplined. I’m equally grateful for the community here; it’s a place where I feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely supported as I learn. If you’re a woman looking for an MMA gym, I can’t recommend this place enough.“

“Our Nory has been taking Master Cosmo’s lessons for over 18 months now. Master Cosmo and his team are excellent with encouraging discipline and focus while also encouraging room for improvement, and most importantly respect amongst her peers that segway into other areas. Highly recommend Master Cosmo’s school to any parent looking for a positive active atmosphere!“

“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.“

“Amazing school! 10/10 I recommend. My 2 boys have been attending this school for 5 years now. They are black belts competing in multiple tournaments here in the local area as well as internationally in South Korea and winning 1st and 2nd place multiple times. They are an extension of our family and I would recommend over and over again!“

“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!“

“I’ve been training at Arena Training Center for about five months, and signing up was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I did a lot of research before choosing a school, and this one stood out immediately.
The schedule is incredibly flexible, with consistent classes instead of just a few options each week. The coaches, Elvis and Peter, are not only knowledgeable but patient, intentional, and genuinely invested in your improvement. From day one, you feel welcomed by both the instructors and fellow students, whether you’re brand-new or experienced.
Since starting, my stamina, and even my mile time, have noticeably improved just from showing up consistently. I can’t recommend this place enough to anyone looking to get in shape, build real skills, and train in a positive, growth-focused environment.
I’m excited to keep improving and seeing how far I can go. The discipline and consistency I’m building here are already carrying over into other areas of my life.“

“This school is run by an amazing family! All of which had significant impact on my life in the years I've been training with them and their sister school. These students always do well in competitions and the environment is fantastic! I would highly recommend.“

“Sensei Chris and staff are top notch. From day one we felt welcome and my grandson loved the classes and teachers. They have a great approach with the kids. Class is structured but always has some nice humor mixed in for the kids. I brought my son here over 25 years ago and it’s lovely to see the school continuing under the same family.“

“Great place for learning different disciplines. Such as Jujutsu, Taekwondo and Judo.
Great atmosphere. You feel like family from day one.
They have a small work out section filled with all that you need for cardio and weights while you wait for your class or it's an off day for you.
Join the 3 Mountain Warrior family“

“If you want to learn authentic traditional Tai Chi as the martial art that it is including the health benefits that all Tai Chi schools claim, you have found the right school. Here you will learn the intricacies of open hand forms as well as the related weapons forms including sword, spear, fan and others. It is a school for the person who is serious,dedicated to self improvement and with the patience to learn the details of the art. The rewards are great and real.“

“I have known SHIHAN Shahin Mehrkar for nearly 30 years. What kept me going and training was Shihan's unwavering, but realistic, dedication to exceptionalism. Sadly life gets in the way of plans and I was unable to continue training. I have stopped by over the years and was inspired everytime I watched classes of all ages that the attention to detail was still very obvious. I would recommend this school and it's instructors to everyone without any reservations whatsoever. I would trust Shihan and anyone he trusts to deliver the best training possible.“
