“We are on our third month at Action Karate and we love it here! The teachers go out of their way to connect with each student to make them feel their best during each class. They make it a fun experience for the kids in a healthy, competitive way that really encourages the students to work hard to achieve their goals. My son walks out of class with a confidence I have never seen before which I am forever thankful for. Thank you specifically to Ms. Raya, Mr. Gabriel and Mr. Wild for making Noah's experience at Action Karate Main Line so special. I also really appreciate all the amazing habits and manners they are instilling in the students, yet in a fun way that resonates with the kids.“

“We came to Action Karate by way of their after school programs at my children’s school. The family friendly environment and consistent reinforcement of character and discipline have been wonderful. The staff is caring and knowledgeable. They provide opportunities for continued growth and they always celebrate the accomplishments of the students whether tots or adults. Not only has my son committed to the black belt process, my husband has as well! It is a wonderful community to be a part of.“

“I began practicing a little over a year and half ago with almost no previous martial arts experience. I am thankful every single day since then that I discovered Aikido. More than that I am thankful that I landed at this dojo. Aikido can seem daunting in the beginning, it is physically challenging and the techniques may not seem as straight forward as other martial arts popular in America. That is one reason people place a lot of emphasis on the community here. Everyone at this dojo wants to see you succeed no matter your age, gender, body type, level of athleticism or anything else. At the end of the day Aikido is you vs. yourself. Everyone at this dojo recognizes that they have had challenges to overcome in their training. In turn we respect the challenges other beginners will be faced with. All anyone needs to start training here is the willingness to show respect to the art, the dojo and their peers.Sensei Perna's dedication to Aikido is inspiring. He leads by example and teaches without ego. In some circles Aikido has a reputation for being performative, more art than martial. But here Sensei Perna and all the other instructors make certain that the martial art you are learning will have practical application in today's world if it were ever necessary. To that end some of the techniques have been modified over the years to fit scenarios that are more likely to occur in our time. When O Sensei developed Aikido over a 100 years ago it was an innovation at the time. I think he would be happy to see continued innovation so that Aikido can remain relevant as a martial art in today's world.“

“My son started at 7 yrs old attending Undisputed MMA for about 1yr maybe a little over. Kids that age sometimes want to try different things so we took a break recently to do basketball and other things. I want to give a HUGE shout out to Coach Siyon, Coach Jabree ,Coach Sheree(my apologies if name spelled incorrectly) and all other staff. They all are so patient with the kids/students and do a great job teaching the material and also being a mentor. My son struggled at times with behavior in school last year and I would share his actions with the staff. They stepped right in to speak with him on these occasions and advise what is expected of him at all times. It was so helpful for me and for my son hearing another voice besides his parents about what to do and what not to do in school. One time Coach Sheree gave him a writing assignment and till this day it remains on a wall in his bedroom on some paper so he can read it whenever needed. I must say my son's behavior had did a complete 360 towards 2nd half of school year last year and continues that way this year. Thank you Coach Siyon, Coach Jabree & Coach Sheree for all you done for Jayceon it is very much appreciated. I strongly recommend parents looking for their child to learn boxing or martial arts to give Undisputed MMA a try these staff members are amazing and great at what they do!Thank You AllJohn (Jayceon's Dad)“

“I have been wanting to get back into martial arts after a decade hiatus. I tried several other schools in the area but they didn’t speak to me. The students at Philadelphia Jiu-Jitsu are top notch. They are welcoming to beginners, train hard, and prioritize safety as well. Damon is a fountain of knowledge and puts blood sweat and tears into training his students and running his classes. He’s approachable, humble, and rolls with all the students. I’ve gained so much in the short few months I’ve been training here and I would highly recommend the school to anyone who wants to get into high quality and affordable training.“

“Our 7 year old son has been going for over a year to Pro Martial Fit and he loves it. It really has improved his coordination, confidence and self esteem. He’s not quite ready to take on the neighborhood bully yet, but the messaging of being a considerate, helpful, polite, grateful human being has definitely rubbed off.“

“A judo dojo where a 63-year old is welcomed and feels healthier than ever after 6 months of training must be something special. MLJ has a friendly atmosphere where you can learn judo at your own pace. The instructors don't teach only techniques but also safety so you can come back for more. Join us.“
