The students who stick it out through black belt are confident but humbled people introducing strategy and patience into their decisions . I would recommend students becoming lifers after achieving black belt as I did and testing through various degrees of success.“

“There are so many activities for kids, and we are so thankful we stumbled into martial arts with Power Kenpo Karate. Logistically, with two studios and flexible scheduling in the member app, it is convenient. The community they created is amazing - weekly lessons, tournaments, PNOs, camps and the annual Trunk-or-Treat. EVERY instructor is fully invested in the success and overall well-being of each student, even the challenging, high-energy kids like our son! They are passionate and truly know how to engage and balance discipline, learning and fun. The skills and lessons our five-year-old son is gaining transcend the mat and will carry him for many years to come. Leadership, responsibility, commitment, respect, confidence, compassion.. thank you for being a positive inspiration to all of us!“

Master and the instructors have been nurturing and supportive of my son during his journey to achieve a black belt. We are forever grateful for this opportunity. I highly recommend AMA taekwondo. Thank you for everything!“

That basically sums up how well this gym is ran and how welcoming every one of your training partners will be. I cant recommend this gym enough to anyone considering MMA“

“Shaolin Wu-Yi Institute, has been a amazing journey for my 1st year as a student who is learning Martial arts. This school has been amazing ! And all the teachers and patient with the students and guide them to their journey. I want to honor my teachers who has been teaching me for 1 year and making me the best self I could become today, from the start of my journey when I became a white belt I was scared and afraid of everything what was around me, but instead a came with warm welcomes from everyone and the community, teaching me my rights and wrongs and helping me become stronger! I was struggling with being bullied by the age of 5 to 10 years old. But my dad who was a brown belt in martial arts had enough seeing me weak and tired and decided to enroll me to this school! I couldn’t thank you enough what my teachers have taught me from heart to soul I thank my teachers for making me feel better and more confident about myself; without being in Shaolin Wu-Yi Institute I wouldn’t be able to do nothing in life. Thank you for helping me through out my 1st year in your school.
