“Excellent place to train. Professor Bill Tetsch is a knowledgeable and passionate BJJ practitioner. I was able to drop in for a handful of classes while up on a work trip and will definitely visit if I am in the area again! Thank you so much for having me!“

“Six blades is a great dojo. Especially for kids, in my experience. Professor and coaches are great, present and attentive. I’ve recommended thus place to 2 other families and they’re kids are learning and having a good experience. Good vibes, discipline, and hard work here. Check them out!“

“My son has been going to prestige since he was 4 years old. He just turned 7. There are plenty of Tae Kwon Do schools in my area but I do make a little drive for Master Nam and his team. I've seen my son grow from a shy timid child into a more self confident, disciplined kid. Master Nam teaches but always makes time for some fun for the kids . You can tell he really enjoys what he does and he goes above and beyond for these kids. He throws movie nights, nerf parties bouncy houses and so much more. We're happy to have found prestige and we'll be sticking around for sure“

“My daughter thoroughly enjoys attending classes. The staff are so welcoming. Professor and instructors are patient and helped her ease into the lessons without a hiccup. It was a bonus that she was able to take a trial class with a borrowed gi before committing. I love that she enjoys going every week cause it's fun (according to her), but it makes my mom heart happy and at ease knowing she's picking up self-defense skills, too.“

“I 100% recommend this school... since in almost 2 years of training my children I have seen excellent sports and behavioral results as well. Teachers are extraordinary people who are dedicated to the sports development of all students.“

“My eldest started when she was 8 yo. She went through the program and received her black belt. My son is currently attending, started when he was 4 yo and will be testing for 3rd degree bb soon. In all, we've been here for 16 years straight. They have both competed in comptetion with great results. Whether to build confidence, discipline, set goals, or compete, this place is the best place to learn under Master Victor.“

“My nephew had a hard time wanting to start the process.... But they worked with him.... Took the extra time to talk to him and relate. They are great at encouraging and cheering on everyone. I also like that the class has varying ages. It's a very welcoming place.“

“What a wonder gym with a great atmosphere and fantastic instruction from world class instructors. the space is made for all ages and abilities and is incredibly welcoming for advanced and new students alike. Cleber is very personable and a great instructor that genuinely cares for his students and wants only the best for them from travelong to tournaments to coach to one on one lessons you should come here for world class training.“

“This review is specific for the kids classes from a parent.As a family joining CheckMat with no previous martial arts background, CheckMat has exceeded our expectations.From day one, the instructors have each been welcoming and fair to all kids in the program. There is no question that the instructors all enjoy teaching jiujitsu to children of different skill levels and ages, it’s definitely a passion of theirs and because of that, the kids safety and instruction is tailored to challenge each kid on an individual basis.As a parent, watching your children develop life skills, gain confidence, improve their fitness, respect others, enjoy competition, and have fun/laugh at the same time is all you can ask for - and that we get with every class we send our kids to.We are extremely happy with our experience at CheckMat and would recommend it to others looking for a challenging and supporting activity for their family.“

“Master Chris and all of the staff are excellent. They are especially patient with my shy son giving him confidence, extra time when he needs it and patience. Class is fun, kids are in great spirits and enjoy coming each week. They also reinforce respect, talk to the kids about creating good habits and kindness. Highly recommend for all ages.“

“Terry is great trainer, motivator, and really patient. My now 10 year old son has been training with T for a year now and I have seen so much progress. Terry motivates yet makes it fun for my son to enjoy every training session. So, if you're looking for a great trainer, Terry is definitely your guy! Thanks T for your dedication and professionalism as a trainer. We're looking forward to many more years! ? ?“

“I have been in martial arts most of my life, and this is the most all-encompassing training centers I have found. For years I have searched for a studio that covers mindset, striking, weapons, grappling and have it all taught with street application. Hard to find, but GC Krav Maga has it all. They also host many self-defense and survival-specific seminars. The owner, Mr. Noi, creates an environment that is welcoming and also challenging for everyone. Every class leaves me with a great physical work out. GC Krav Maga is everything I have wanted, all in one location. There are many similar studios closer to my home, but I choose to drive 1 hour round trip to attend class regularly. Well worth it!“

“I can't recommend this gym enough! It's run by Kevin and Haley, both black belts, and you can immediately tell that they pour their heart and soul into the gym. They treat everyone like family, creating an incredibly welcoming environment. The matt space itself is fantastic--spacious, full of natural light, and clean! It's clear they take pride in every detail. Whether you're new to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or experienced, professor Kevin and Haley are not only highly skilled but also extremely humble and caring. They truly care about each student's progress and are always there to help and encourage. If you're looking for a gym that combines top tier training with a warm, family-like atmosphere this is the place to be!“

“I have been coming here for more than 20 years. It is a great place filled with awesome instructors and kind students. I highly recommend it if you're in the area and looking to improve yourself or for a positive and focused activity for your child.“

“Five Stars for UTO taekwondo. Mr Lee is great. I have a five-year-old and a 7 year old daughters who go here and I am very happy about the program here.“

“Hi Sensei this is Tony I saw that you replied to my mom that I just want to say the I miss your academy I really wanna go back but sadly it’s too far but let me know when you return back I’ll be waiting take care!“

“Hi, my name is mark, and im very proud to say to this day that i was the very 1st student at this school when it opened. If you are thinking of becoming a student of this wing chun school, then you will certainly be going to a top notch wing chun school. Sifu talbot is a very good and personable instructor. I stopped going to the school because i simply could not and would not commit myself to training. I started looking for excuses not to go to class. Ohh i tried other martial arts schools before and after the time i spent at west coast wing chun. For the past 2 years i trained in karambit knife combat. After that 2 years i fortunately gain enough skill to be able to effectively defend myself if it comes down to god forbid. If you truly want the skill, then you commit yourself to training otherwise you're wasting time and money regardless of the school you choose. But i give this school a definite 5 star! Mark Alonzo First and former student“

“My daughter started karate in Feb 2022. We love how this place is very family friendly. Kids are learning to have self control and discipline. I can tell they all respect their Sensei and learning all the kempo and combinations. I didn't think my daughter is going to last, but after 6 months she's got her purple belt. It was hard work, but rewarding at the same time. It builds self confidence and get them to move around. I highly recommend this place.“

Come check us out.“

“My daughter has been training here since 2021, 2 years of training so far. We came here looking for my 13-year-old to stay out of trouble and keep busy. After 30 days of training and improving, she became addicted. Fast forward to now, she's a beast. We are so grateful to Professor Javier for taking Lexi under his wing to train her as hard as he has. We consider Javiers BJJ Dojo as a second home and everyone there as family.* Challenging mentally and physically* Discipline* Great Professor and students that help* Competitions* Stress relief* Awesome workout“
