The Academy of Self-Defense

1220 E Tallmadge Ave, Akron

Fri 4 - 8:30PM

“My son has been attending classes here since late April 2025 (currently late July 2025) and I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience here. My son started about 1 month after turning 4 so listening skills and things like that were kind of rough. He also is an only child and doesn’t get around a lot of other kids so it has been an adjustment getting used to the schedule. The teachers/staff and other members (parents and kiddos) have been so supportive, kind and have really taken the time to make sure he isn’t left out or left behind. I was worried he wouldn’t fit in but it feels like we are part of a team when we come in to each class. I also really like the atmosphere and the family culture within the academy. I couldn’t imagine taking my son anywhere else and am so grateful we have found you guys. After several weeks of classes my 4 year old has progressed to his yellow stripe belt and has a confidence about him that I wasn’t sure we would ever see. We look forward to coming twice a week and for us homebodies, that is a huge testament to how AMAZING this place is! THANK YOU THANK YOU highly recommend.”
