    We trialed the Little Tigers Program for two weeks (4 classes), and after his first class as an enrolled student, my son was excited to continue. He came home eager to show us what he had learned and couldn't stop talking about how much fun he had. The Strong Martial Arts team is family run, has deep community ties, and makes a genuine effort to know every student by name. Class sizes are small, and with multiple instructors providing guidance, each child receives plenty of attention. My son absolutely loves his classes and I've already noticed gradual positive changes.

    Strong is a great gym with great teachers. I have been taking the adult kickboxing classes for over a year and I love it! The gym provides a safe, friendly atmosphere and it is amazing what a great workout you get in one hour! Students range from 16 to 60, men and women.I had worked out in other ways over the years but had never done kickboxing before. It is definitely challenging at first but in 2-3 weeks, you get in the groove for both the conditioning and the kick-boxing parts. And it's way more fun than programs like Orange Theory or just lifting weights.I highly recommend Strong Martial Arts. It really is a great workout option for all skill levels.
