“Great gym and great teachers. All the staff and students are friendly and you feel like family immediately. My daughter takes the kids BJJ class and she loves it. I myself have trained and shopped around at multiple gyms from MMA to BJJ and I've never felt more at home than at CT combat. I just have to add that the teachers for the kids class are great with kids. Helping not only with self defense but the kids are learning real life characteristics to bring home and to school like teamwork, respect and responsibility. Not only that the kids are having a lot of fun. Check this gym out and you won't be disappointed!!!“
“My daughter has learned so much and had so much fun since she started training at SDSS in Newtown. Master Schaeffer is absolutely beyond compare as an instructor and mentor. He is kind and fun and the kids all love him, but he also knows when and how to hold them accountable and maintain high standards. They learn so much more than Kung Fu here. They learn self-discipline, respect, kindness, mindfulness, self-control, and confidence. I highly recommend SDSS in Newtown.“
“My son just started at the Charland Institute this year and he absolutely LOVES it! The instructors are amazing, patient, and they serve as great role models to our community's children. They are well-organized and supportive. We're so glad to have jumped in!“
“American Filipino Kun Tao is such an effective system for self defense. The instructors here are top notch.“
“My daughter is a student here and she loves it. Instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and great with children.“
“This martial arts school is terrific. My son has been dedicated to their program for many years... From beginner white belt right up to black belt. Owner and staff are very experienced. They teach life skills here, much more than just self defense.“
“Porco's is the best! My daughter has been going since 2011 and loves it. Developed confidence and perseverance. Great work ethic & Instructors are top quality!“
