Incredible location and training facility. Sensei Jerry has been in the community for decades and is easily one of the most influential people to leave his mark. In times where we struggle harder than ever with self-image and expectations from the world and peers around us, the teachings here will help guide you back on track to find yourself.
Shihan Figgiani and Family are an exceptional group of Karate students! Extremely welcoming, very knowledgeable, highly experienced. ECBBA had welcomed us to their Doshi Kai trainings with open arms! We recommend East Coast Black Belt Academy!
The PAL summer Reach out camp was phenomenal! . The elementary school aged girl I mentor throughly enjoyed it. She learned how to deal with bullying, self awareness and self defense. It was a great introduction to The Martial Arts!
