Columbia Martial Arts and Fitness (CMA) is a thriving martial arts club founded in 1993. With its current 5000 sq foot facility, CMA uses martial arts to teach self-confidence, focus, and discipline, aiming to excite, engage, and empower its students. The club has received overwhelmingly positive reviews, with parents praising the excellent staff and their ability to cater to children of all abilities, including those with special needs. The children enjoy the fun and discipline, and the weekly challenges help boost their confidence. While the facility is described as small and tight, the ample outdoor space makes up for it. The staff's patient and understanding approach has been particularly appreciated, as they encourage and challenge students, even those who may not be very athletic, to grow and improve. Overall, CMA is described as a welcoming and inclusive environment that helps children develop important life skills.
