“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 did a self defense course and the instructors were very informative and direct. We learned applicable defense techniques that are easy to remember!“

“Our family has been part of the Tiger Shulman’s Huntington studio for 2 years. This experience has been beyond my expectations of when I first sat down with Sensei Castillo to talk about enrolling my child. At the time I was thinking ‘This will help my child face the bus bullies’. Two years later, I can see that what Sensei has given my family goes way beyond my first thought.My review is lengthy. Here are the highlights:1) Sensei Castillo is a truly gifted and exuberant instructor. His energy, wisdom and love permeate the entire studio.2) I have seen my child grow physically and mentally. This new growth is manifested in and outside the studio. In a nutshell: my child is genuinely thriving in life.3) This studio has a warm and welcoming community. And it is spotless clean.5) I was inspired to join the studio and I love it.This studio is owned by Sensei Castillo. He deeply cares about every single person that walks into his studio. This includes all his students and their parents. Moreover, Sensei expertly oscillates between his young students and his older students, keeping his energy constant and to the level of his student. Among the many valuable traits Sensei has is true genuine discipline, which radiates throughout the whole studio. He leads by example. He leads with true love. And he holds the bar deservedly high for everyone to rise and thrive and feel proud. I have seen my child become more mature and attain more self-control and self-love. This was illustrated when my child shared with me how to persist in a difficult physical game: “I kept telling my body positive things to keep going.” These words solidified our commitment to maintain our child learning with Sensei.Sensei micromanages his entire studio. It is impeccably clean and organized. His coaches are trained and monitored by him to preform like him teaching his students. He also is the studio manager, membership administrator, and schedule coordinator. The studio culture is warm and welcoming. Everyone says hi and are happy to see you. It is almost like the show Cheers, but with punching bags. And this is what inspired me to join the studio.My child inspired me to try this studio. Here is how this unfolded for me. I have been active my adult life participating in a plethora of fitness programs. At this point in time something was missing in my fitness need: a sense of community. When I first tried a kickboxing class, I felt so inadequate and weird, and embarrassed. I am a fit person, but I was surprisingly uncomfortable in the studio with other students. So, after that first class I did not go back. Sensei let me be. He was gently waiting on the mat for me to be ready to come back. Months passed by and an email came announcing a 60 day challenge. And with the mind set of “I am changing to be uncomfortable” I returned to the mat to embrace the uncomfortable. Oh boy, I stink at this kickboxing thing. I am the most uncoordinated person in the world, and it takes me a long time to teach my limbs how to move. But, in this new uncomfortable space I have found growth. And I love my adult beginner kickboxing class. First, Coach Antony is a good fit for me. He is a baseball athlete, and he does excellent explaining and demoing the moves. Second, it is at 6 am. I love starting my day punching and kicking and then I can go on with my day and not have to think about: “I have to do my workout”. And my classmates are a pleasure to train with and I look forward to seeing them and punching with them. And it is quite refreshing to do an activity that has a lot of male energy.In summary, this martial arts studio is a gem. Children and adults convey on the same mat to learn and teach the art of being peaceful, which comes when you can defend yourself and hold your ground. Moreover, this studio is populated with members that deeply care for each other and are constantly nourishing their growth as individuals in the community. This studio empowers their members to thrive on and off the mat.“

“My son (Marcus) joined Trigon Academy 4 months ago and he likes it a lot. He's made great improvements in his MMA skills and he's already a yellow belt. Eric, his instructor, is a great teacher & breaks down every technique masterfully. My son looks forward to going to class every day. I highly recommend Trigon Academy to everyone.“

“This is my son’s first group/sport/extra curricular activity and I have to say I couldn’t be happier. The staff is amazing with the kids! The instructors have a great way about them making the classes fun while teaching them important skills. My son is shy and emotional and no matter what mood he’s in they get through to him and get him to participate in the class. I highly recommend Raijin for parents looking for an activity for their kids.“

“My son has been taking the classes for a year and he loves it. Great teachers and they always have different activities for the kids to do. 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.“

“I can’t express enough gratitude for the incredibly positive impact sensei Rob and sensei Paula have had on my life. The physical, mental and spiritual growth I’ve experienced and have observed in other students at the Heijoshin Dojo is extremely profound. They are such selfless teachers and mentors, dedicating so much time and energy to empowering their students. Having known them for more than 20 years, I encourage everyone I know to explore this school at any stage of life. You can recognize one of their students by the way they carry themselves, respect others, and act in support of the communities they’re involved in“

“Anthony is very respectful,made me feel at home in his Dojo.I didn't train there for Martial Arts but took my CCW class certification here love the setting,very clean and comfortable would recommend this school just off the strength of the attitude and environment.. Thanks Arango“

“I had a great time at the dojo, and I loved being there, until I went out in a rage. I have been planning to come back to No Fear, It’s just that cannot handle the shame of going into the dojo again, and possibly ruin my reputation in the karate world even more, and also if I move on to another dojo, If the scenario does happen, It would feel wrong to compete against a dojo I was once part of in a competition. I will come back someday, and learn from my mistakes. (Edit: I never did come back...)“

“Came here for 13 years and counting. Everyone here is so welcoming and amazing, it’s truly a taekwondo family :)“

“I have been training at this school for years, most of my life in fact, and I've had some of the greatest moments of my life in this school. I learn more and more every class and have a great time doing so. I've made many friends whom I'll never forget, and I've learned many things I'll never forget. This school is absolutely excellent.“

“Grand Master Choi is an excellent teacher who pays attention to every child's unique needs. He motivates them and continues to instill self confidence.“

“I really liked the tai chi classes I miss it a lot i’m doing it on my own it’s not the same they really help me out a lot they are really nice I appreciate everything they’ve done for me hoping one of these days and go back and take Tai chi again“

“Awesome would recommend to any person on planet earth who is trying to find a karate place to train at“

“I have been attending Busto's Martial Arts as a student and instructor for over 30 years. It has been like a second home to me. The classes are challenging and lots of fun. The head instructor, Shihan Busto, is extremely knowledgeable with many decades of experience. He has an lifelong commitment to the art.Students of all ages and experience levels are always welcome. Whether you are interested in self defense, discipline, competition, exercise, physical fitment, Busto's has a program for you!“

“My son is 7: he loves this material arts locations. The coaches pay attention the kids, my son feels comfortable, the coaches are interactive and very polite & helpful. My son has fun every class.“

“This Tae Kwon Do center is great. My son loves going. He has been going since he was 5. We saw the demonstration team at one of the Lindenhurst fairs. Started out with Tiger kids and is now in the Child program. Master Sailor and Master Alex are great instructors. Instructor Karen is the first person you see when arriving. They instill the discipline these kids need. You greet all the staff with a bow and either “Hello ma’am” or “Hello sir”. My son is currently on his orange belt. He was invited to join the black belt club and attends a nunchuck class and just received his Dedication pants. If anyone is thinking about joining they usually run a special to tryout it out before committing. Could not give enough praises about everyone.“

“It was an honor being taught the Gentle art by UFC legend Matt Serra . Such a unique experience… WE LOVE JIU JITSUUUU OSSS“

“Great place for kids lessons, Sheehan Mike and Sensei Christina are absolutely great and patient. Kids can't wait to come for their lessons.“
