They learn striking, kicking, grappling, and how it all comes together. Coach Jon is a wonderful role model who reinforces respect, discipline, and teamwork. He’s funny while also highly skilled, and the kids love and adore him. Ohana is also the cleanest and best smelling gym we’ve ever been to. Ivy keeps the place running smoothly and is responsive to all questions. Aptly named, we’re so grateful to be part of the Ohana family. Highly recommend!!“

“There are not enough words to describe how outstanding this dojo is. Zen Martial Arts was recommended to me by a couple local moms when I reached out about suggestions to help my 5 year old daughter’s self-confidence issues, and it has been working wonders for her. Sensei Oliver and his team went above and beyond to boost her confidence and fill their students with inspiration and encouragement. They know exactly what to say to make kids feel comfortable, safe, and encouraged, while also having them try their best and follow the dojo rules without making them feel ashamed for messing up. The community they have created there is wonderful, and we’re so glad to be a part of it. Thank you, Sensei Oliver, for making my girl feel so good about herself, and for going above and beyond to do so.If you’re considering where to have your child (or you!) take some karate lessons, look no further than Zen!“

“If you are looking for the right martial arts studio, look no further! I found KSMY on Yelp actually. My son has been attending this studio for two years and believe me when I say that his confidence has grown. He always thought of himself as "not athletic" because he wasn't into what some consider more traditional sports. Joining this martial arts allowed him to understand his potential and he's learned so much both physically and mentally. Ma'am My is an absolute gem and she REALLY loves her students. I'm so grateful we found her and KSMY!“

“When I was just 4 years old they allowed me to take part of learning valuable life lessons and grow inside these walls the way other sports would not let me. I was always welcomed and love this family and wish I could bring my 4 year old son to them. To Master Lee, my life is different because of you in the best way possible and Master Alex, thank you for growing up with me and showing me never quit in action. You BOTH made me better and I am grateful. I love and miss you two.“

“We decided to enroll our son in martial arts for improved focus and discipline. He loved the learning environment full of friendly and supportive individuals that encouraged him and provided an environment to thrive. After a period of time we added the entire family. We love our martial arts experience and are grateful for the wonderful experience at Level Up. The instructors are knowledgeable and encouraging, there is a great family environment and we’ve amazed ourselves with our improved fitness, flexibility and stamina. The staff is highly professional but does an amazing job of creating a feeling of family and community. We can attend as many clases per week as we want and the workouts are diverse and engaging. LUMA has also been a leader in online learning during SIP.Ultimately, we are so glad we enrolled our son and ourselves. We’ve met our initial goals of improved discipline and focus and so much more. We recommend Level Up hands down!!!“

She keeps the classes rolling at the perfect pace, is so good with the kids and coaches, manages the room with ease, and is a wonderful strong role model.“
