Martial Arts Schools in Knoxville

“This is the best hour of the week you can do for your kids. The dojo is clean, fun, and my son absolutely loves the instructor. I have referred 3 families and all 3 have been coming over 6 months now. Do not do the free class unless you plan on staying because your kid will not want to miss!“

“The knowledge, approach, and contextual understanding are conveyed in a very applicable and understandable manner, which makes training and learning an outstanding experience.“

“KMAA is the greatest place on earth. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first day or your thousandth day, they never make you feel like the new person they treat you like family. Coach Jason, Dre, Dan, Emily, Eric, Katie, David, and Chris are some of the greatest people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting here and they have become second family members to me and are always checking on me outside of the gym. This place isn’t just a gym it’s a family and I’ve never been happier. The greatest decision I’ve ever made is walking through the doors.“

“The instructor is one of the most knowledgeable martial artists I've ever met; this is rare gem of a class.“

“My son has been going to taekwondo here for a few months and he LOVES it. They’re absolutely amazing with every single kid that walks through that door and makes every effort to get to know them all as individuals and help them learn and succeed. 10/10 recommend!“

“A good place to learn traditional karate. Sensei Noel is extremely insightful, open-minded, and patient. Everyone is friendly and inviting. The curriculum focuses on self-defense stuff, with an emphasis on Kata, the application of Kata, and pressure testing through sparring. A wonderful experience all told, and great fun as well.“

“I have been training here for almost a year. Very kind and supportive group to beginners. Sensei Rob is a great teacher. We not only learn techniques but proper etiquette for training, and we get to hear lessons passed down from Sensei’s teachers also :)“
