Martial Arts Schools in Alexandria

“Our family is new to this studio and has been pleasantly surprised with the warmth of the teachers and how well run the classes seem to be. Our son is learning a lot quickly and looks forward to every single class. I would recommend checking this studio out if you are considering tae kwan do for any members of your family - it’s a very popular choice with families in the fort hunt area and I can see why!“

“Excellent CrossFit and hyrox classes by very knowledgeable coaches. Additionally they have kid martial arts classes concurrently allowing the whole family to increase their fitness and skill level together“

“Highly professional and dedicated instructors! Our son is making great progress with Sensei Gary. He's the best!!! We are glad we found Potomac Kempo! :)“

“We’ve been attending this martial arts gym for about a year, and the experience has been incredible for our family. Our son, who is naturally hesitant to try new things, was welcomed by the staff at his own pace and is now thriving. His confidence has grown tremendously, and he’s learned to embrace challenges and handle uncomfortable situations with ease.

The classes are well-structured and provide the right balance of discipline and support for kids of all ages and abilities. Both of our boys’ confidence has skyrocketed since joining. They especially love Coach Natashia, the leader of the youth program, who has a remarkable ability to connect with each athlete and bring out their best.

We couldn’t be happier with the positive impact this gym has had on our children’s growth, confidence, and overall well-being.“

“Great family oriented organization. My son has been coming for almost 3 years and loves it. All of the staff works exceptionally well with the kids. They're other services are also very valuable.“

“This isn’t just a martial arts school, it’s family. Amazing instructors, great environment, and hands down the best place to train in the DMV!“

“We started our son here and couldn’t be more pleased. He is pretty young to start but the coaches are really good with him. He really enjoys it and is building strength, skill and confidence. Thanks team Testudo.“

“Just had the best birthday experience! My 6 year old and his friends came and had an absolute blast. Very sweet family, fantastic instructor Master Michael. Highly recommend.“

“My son has attended Yang’s taekwondo for a few years now and my daughter just started. Grandmaster Yang is absolutely amazing. He makes taekwondo really fun for the kids to learn.“

“we are extremely happy that we found Potomac Kempo and Sensei Gary Covington where our 11 year old daughter now trains. He is positive, patient, kind and accommodating.. a great role model & teacher!“

“Josh Sensei is a passionate and knowledgeable instructor.With a keen eye for detail and a drive for progression, you will be in the same good hands that I have been in since the middle of 2019. Between the training atmosphere and the various dojo get togethers, outside of COVID-19 times of course, Josh Sensei has bolstered a welcoming atmosphere that anyone willing to come in and dedicate the time to training should enjoy their stay. On top of this, he is willing to go out of his way to answer questions both inside and out of class and has even provided extra trainings at the sole cost of his time on special occasions. Come prepared to learn and work hard as those efforts will yield gains in yourself that you have yet to know as the value of the training provided is well worth the cost.“

“Just an awesome school. Dr Sorbi teaching style is passionate yet relaxed, his experience as a professional educator clearly shows. The club generally, is welcome both to beginners and those with some experience.“

“My relationship with Lead By Example Martial Arts is not that of a student, but rather of someone with a business relationship with the school's leadership. Our interactions with the leaders--particularly Janet--have been great. They are professional, responsive, innovative, kind, and extremely passionate about providing their students with the best experience and tools. Based on our professional relationship, I know they care deeply for their students and their experience. I would recommend them to anyone looking for martial arts instruction in the area.“
