Martial Arts Schools near Lakewood Ranch

“It's a workout great for mind, body, and soul! The instructors make me want to come class and get better every day!“

“I enrolled my 12 year old daughter here in the Teen/Adult classes and it has been the best experience for her. She is physically active now, shows respect at home on a new level, and has made new life long friends. All of the Instructors are great with kids of all ages and it is a fun, safe place for your kids to grow, and become a person that THEY love, and OTHERS respect. If your child can walk, talk, and is curious about Taekwondo, sign them up! A two week trial never hurt anyone!SIDE NOTE: I also joined Red Tiger’s Adult classes 1 month ago. I am having a blast at 46 years old and learning so much each time. My energy level is much higher now, and my body is starting to feel much younger. I did not realize how out of shape I was until someone told me to kick something. That will wake you up! We are here for life now and I am so glad to have found Red Tiger!“

“Wonderful environment where you feel like you have found a new family. A place to unwind and have fun all while you practice and develop this fantastic artistic style of martial arts in the company of some amazing people. Love this place!“

“Highly recommend Triumph Martial Arts for Taekwondo. We love all the instructors! They are fun, kind and engaging, excellent re-direction as well. We absolutely love it and are so happy the progress, we've noticed a big shift in our son's confidence.“

“Master Jessie is an incredible instructor and person. He is so gentle and kind with my 5-year-old and teaches the lessons while also making it playful and fun. He consistently meets my son where he is at and doesn’t force him to do things, but engages him through play, which I sincerely appreciate. I highly recommend Ming Wu.“

“We live in Taiwan but return to Florida during summers and were blessed to find such a wonderful place for our two sons to train Jiu Jitsu when we visit. Coach Josh, and everyone at the school, makes the boys feel welcome and could not be kinder or more supportive. The boys have acquired new skills and have a special gym they can always call "home." Thanks to all, and see you again next time!“

“As a recent transplant to Florida I was looking for a gym to train Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at so I did my research of the area. I am truly elated that I found Martin Academy. Sifu LaVonne, Coach Ted, Coach Bruce, and Coach Mike are all around amazing human beings. They are beyond kind, knowledgeable, encouraging, and patient (I think I've seen rocks with better motor skills than I have). Training here is truly the highpoint of my day, and I learn just as much from the instructors as I do from my fellow students. It is truly a family atmosphere and I'm extremely fortunate that I have been welcomed into it with open arms. I could not ask for a better place to train. Also Ms. Maddy might be one of the best dogs on the planet, and seeing her at the gym just makes it that much better. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!“

“This dojang is amazing. It feels like a family. I always leave this place with a huge smile on my face!“

“Got my girlfriends wee ones in the the classes. Dude is great with the kids and manages the class well. Nice atmosphere as well. Highly recommend for wee ones for sure.“

“Compass is the reason why I've stayed with BJJ. David is a very lively & passionate instructor who tailors every class to those who are in it, and teaches in such a way that explores and expands upon concepts which transcend the boredom of mechanical repetition. The guidance & personalized direction from each & every upper belt at Compass is deeply encouraging & motivating. This school is truly a hidden gem.“

“Love this place sadly it's currently repparing cause of an accident but still very nice place though it's under repair I still believe in it and I'm still in it“

“We were looking for an activity for our son to help boost his confidence and effort. He was a little apprehensive at first but after 2 sessions he was hooked. I can honestly say this has changed him in so many positive ways. Not only is he learning self defense he is showing more confidence in everything he does he has more respect and it has made him want to try more new things and give 110% into whatever hes doing. Master Craig and Master Cindy are really shaping these kids lives for the better and we can not recommend this establishment more.“

“This is a small congregation very mixed in age and backgrounds. They are both Jewish and Gentile worshippers. People are very friendly and welcoming. Rabbi greets every person individually on Shabbat. Most of the music is Christian and the prayers are in Hebrew and English. There is pot luck lunch following the service. Perhaps because I live a distance away, I always have a problem finding the building which is undistinguished from any other building in the area. Safety is well covered by trained individuals who remain alert the entire time. I felt safe and nourished there.“
