“Kyoshi is a great karate teacher. He taught me how to defend myself and never be affraid. Believe in yourself. To repect karate.“

“10/10!! If you aren’t going to Jiu Jitsu Modern you are missing out. Everyone is always ready to help each other out. The atmosphere is unmatched, you really do gain a family both on & off the mats. The competition classes are on another level. Professor Carlos & all the coaches have a way with making BJJ classes insightful whether it’s Gi or No-Gi. I’ve been going to Modern for over a year and honestly it is one of the few only things keeping me in NY.“

“I just started coming to Victory for kickboxing classes. I love it!! It is such a fun cardio workout! Everyone is so nice and welcoming“

Clean mats, friendly people, and skillful trainers.. Everyone can benefit from the novice to experts. Trigon is a 5 out of 5!!“

They offer classes multiple days a week and no two classes are the same. My son loves it and looks forward to going.“

They’re always promoting good mental and physical health and during this times is nice to find a place where my child can get that and also learn self defense.“

“My son started at Cutting Edge Kempo when he was 4 years old. Best decision I have ever made. Sensei Nick and his team are top notch. They taught my son more then just karate. They help instill the fundamentals of just being a good human being. Try them out and I guarantee you will not be disappointed!!“

“We love Dragon Gate. We've been bringing our son here for about 5 years and he's grown both as a martial artist and a person.Scheduling is very flexible to fit any schedule. The students can still participate in other activities very easily while still coming 2-3 times a week.Shihan Mike and his team of Senseis do a great job of teaching discipline and skill without screaming at the kids. It's truly a great environment for kids to learn a skill, build confidence and grow.“

“Amazing sensei's. Very organized and always have little events and things for the kids.“

“I cannot say enough about this wonderful school and Master Pete! My children started here in 2020 when their old school closed, it was a heartbreaking experience for my kids but Master Pete kindly and generously welcomed our family. The way my son and daughter have grown and progressed is immeasurable. I admire and appreciate Master Peter’s teaching methodologies, his patience, standards, and values. Classes are an ideal balance of fun and challenge. I’ve seen my kids develop physical strength, endurance, knowledge, and skills that I am continually impressed by. They’ve made friends, hosted birthday parties, and attended Summer Camp at High Kick; they go to classes 3-5 times a week and are always so eager to go! Martial arts are so much more than a belt ranking, I sincerely see how the lessons learned in Master Pete’s school are foundational and necessary in today’s challenging world. If you’re considering martial arts-look no further!“

“Love this dojo. My boys have been coming here for 3 years, and they've learned so much about discipline, hard work, patience as well as skills. And they choose every year to keep going, despite it being challenging. Highly recommended.“

“Nancy & Mike from Millennium helped us put together a 3 hour self-defense class here with a group of runners from Rev Running PT! Mike, Nancy and Jayson were absolutely amazing! It was so informative and helpful to learn such important maneuvers and techniques to improve safety for runners!!! Thank you so so much!!!“

“5 stars, easily, no questions; and if I could give more I would. I was extremely nervous to join as I have been removed from any type of Martial Arts for a very very long time. Muay Thai was a completely new world to me. Let me tell you though, since day 1, I was greeted by every coach in the room, open arms, huge smiles. If you are a person who suffers from anxiety, or are afraid of new environments trust me when I tell you this gym will make you feel welcome. The classes focus not only on the offense, but the defense, and the coaches really bring it 360 with applicability to real life situations, mental and physical. All while being able to individually review the students in the class and make necessary adjustments in real time so you really understand the lesson. There is a reason they have such high reviews, and they are well deserved. Looking forward to my new adventure in Muay Thai!“

“Just started las week and this is an Incredible atmosphere to be in, instructors are on point when it comes to details. Extremely happy with classes as they exceed my expectations. Thank you KMD.“

“Since James has started practicing ninjitsu I've observed some positive changes in him. He has become more disciplined, focused, and confident. His physical strength and coordination have noticeably improved, and I appreciate the values of respect and perseverance that he's learning from his training. Ninjitsu has not only enhanced his martial arts skills but also positively influenced his overall character development. I'm proud to see the positive impact it has had on him. Thank you for all you do on your end.However, I wish he would listen more at home and stop whining. I feel it's essential for us to address this behavior together. I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions you may have on how we can collectively work on improving his listening skills and minimizing whining at home. Your insights would be valuable in fostering a more positive environment for our son. ?Nichole“

“Ive been training at this gym since I was 8 years old. Theres not a better MMA gym around. Long Island MMA has the most experienced instructors who will help you reach whatever goals you have. There is tons of space in the gym and there is no equipment that they don’t have on hand. I love this gym, you won’t be disappointed!“
