Martial Arts Schools near Columbia

“We are part of the Spartan Academy Family for a year now and we love everyone there and the Lessons. We drive 30mins one way because there is nowhere better to bring your Kids to learn BJJ. Big Fans“

“?WE HAVE BEEN AROUND and there is simply no school that compares to this one. 1️⃣. At other schools there was a "you are the student and I am the teacher" barrier. Here the teachers are VERY involved with each and every student and care SO passionately about their growth-both as a martial artist and as a person. As a parent, what else can you ask for? 2️⃣. At other schools they hand out belts like it's candy. Here, you must earn it, and so when you do earn that next belt, your child feels a sense of accomplishment. 3️⃣. While this school should be more expensive because it's just so much better, it's actually significantly cheaper than the others. 4️⃣. This may not be important to some but it is for us: Master Martin, while passionate and caring and serious about teaching..is SO funny!! He makes the kids laugh, and knows when to be serious and when to be silly. 5️⃣. Everyone that assists Master Martin is equally AWESOME, and there is just a mutual respect and familial feeling throughout the school. I could go on with more reasons, but in conclusion THIS. IS. THE. PLACE. TO. BE. (P.S. They also have adult classes which I also highly recommend!)Sincerely,-a VERY happy mom of 3 kids that will all be black belts someday!?“

“it's been a game-changer for my child with social and separation anxiety, and has helped my shy child break out of her shell and form meaningful friendships. It teaches so much more the self defense. They learn discipline, how to focus, confidence and so much more, so if you're looking for a supportive and safe environment with exceptional instructors, I highly recommend Columbia Martial Arts & Fitness - give them a call today and let your kids experience the transformative power of Martial Arts for themselves.“

“Love this gym! It is smaller and much more personal than the usual big box gym. I didn't feel intimidated or overwhelmed by everything when I first went in. And it still has everything you need from cardio, free weights, circuit training, etc and you don't have to fight for a spot in line. If you are looking for a gym that has a much more laid back atmosphere while still having all the machines, etc. , this is your place! They have classes and personal training if you're interested but they are also very approachable if you just need help figuring out what machine does what. I'd much rather support my neighborhood small business, a family run gym, especially when it has everything I need and I feel comfortable there! 10/10 definitely recommend 👌“
