Master Lee , Sora and the staff teach the techniques in a fun welcoming environment. If you are thinking about trying taekwondo I highly recommend this studio.“

“Three years ago, we were searching for a way to keep my boys active and fit. We discovered National TKD, and they immediately embraced it. Seeing their passion, we knew it was the right fit. Now, three years later, they've grown immensely in athleticism and discipline, both nearing black belt status. The instructors, including a world-class Taekwondo Olympian, are incredibly supportive, and the environment is very family-oriented. I highly recommend this dojang for anyone looking for a transformative martial arts experience.“

I had sat in on another local studio and have to say this one is the BEST and glad we selected Nixa Martial Arts Institute! Master Young Jin Park keeps every class exciting and captivating for the children. Way to Go Nixa Martial Arts Institute!!“

“Sensei Philip its giving class every tuesday and thursday. The aikido class Its amazing.“

“Z-Ultimate is now my new karate dojo! I signed with Sensei Sarina after taking a private lesson with her. I was of the opinion that the private lesson could not possibly be THAT exceptional to convince me to join Z-Ultimate while being affiliated with another dojo of 11 years. WOW! The experience was "NEXT LEVEL". The lesson was so astonishingly marvelous and I signed up after the private lesson concluded. I admire Z-Ultimate for choosing a female as Chief Instructor. The professionalism, quality, and friendly approach in their lesson plans surpass my expectations. Sensei Anthony's instruction is exceptional as well. The classes are organized, insightful, and professional. I only wish I had known about these wonderful and knowledgeable senseis BEFORE I invested all my time, energy, and money with the (now former) dojo to which I was previously affiliated.Both Senseis are well spoken and educated. Rather than just "going through the motions" these Senseis are sincerely passionate about their craft. I have found happiness and contentment with this dojo. Best of all, I am very excited to attend class and learn from Sensei Sarina and Sensei Anthony. I have found joy. Isn't that what learning is all about?“

“This is long overdue and my son has a black belt now. All we have in our mind is good memories and we are so grateful for Master Kim and other coaches teaching our son , not Just the Taekwondo but also how to be humble and respectful and disciplined.We love Master Kim and his family.“

“Zen Dojos is fantastic. If you're considering enrolling your son or daughter, I'd highly recommend coming here. My son went to Karate at a different dojo that has no affiliation with Zen Dojos Martial Arts Academy, and it was a terrible first experience for him. I wont get into that experience as it doesn't matter here, but suffice it to say he went into that place excited, and left very scared and crying. He's 3 years old. We heard of Zen Dojos from a family member and we decided to check it out after that experience. Sensei Marco is undeniably the best person to help our son have a good experience with Martial Arts. He worked with him, and made time for him, met him where he was at, communicated what was they were going to be doing, had expectations of him and was respectful of his needs. He's simply the best. Couldn't have picked a better place. Sign up here. Hands down the best place to go.“

“Best thing I ever did for my son was enroll him with IL-DO. The team here are supportive, hard-working, and most of all, dedicated! I'm so impressed with this studio. It's amazing to see how much my son has evolved as a person with confidence, focus and skill since we joined. Thank you to the team!
