Martial Arts Schools near Beech Grove

“We love Beech Grove Tang Soo Do, and have recommended to many of our friends. They are affordable, and do an excellent job with our two girls! Send your kids here! They will love it!“

“My 6 year old started a month ago and we have all had a wonderful experience. They really treat the kids as one individual. He isn’t just a number to them. He has already learned so much and is so focused in class. PILSUNG is amazing and I’m so glad we joined.“

“Can’t recommend this place highly enough! It’s made such a huge, positive difference in my life.“

“Thanks Ko's Martial Arts for Changing my son's life. He is getting more and more active and confident with your help. Not a single Martial Academy in Indiana was accepting my son in Martial Arts because he's a slow learner.. But you guys did it. Thank you Master Ko and especially Melissa.. for helping Tegh at every level. You're the best !!!?.. Respect..“

“Thank you for the class. I’m a truck driver stoped in to work out. Very nice coach and students. Liked it“

“This place is amazing!! Always a positive experience and my child loves it. The staff is incredible.“

“I had a foster kiddo who I threw into all the things to allow them experiences of a childhood and to find their niche.Nothing compared to Hernly Family Karate. My kiddo was welcomed with open arms and accepted for who he was.Hernly Family Karate offered nothing but a positive and enriching experience from summer camp to weekly sessions-it was nothing short of perfection.Fantastic communication, affordable and well rounded in all the things. The growth I saw and the smile always present after my kiddo’s weekly session and camps spoke volumes.Thank you Hernly Family Karate for being a hidden gem and giving such a wholesome and wonderful environment for all involved.“

“Fantastic place to do kendo. Sensei Park and Sensei Smith really get to the heart of kendo, and are always willing to take the time to help me learn and improve. Good class mates also, from 7yo on up, they want to help me get better, which makes a difference.“

“Eastside Family Karate provides my two polar opposite kids with valuable lessons that extend beyond karate. My youngest started at age 4 and one of the first things I noticed was the way karate provided discipline and practice following instructions without punishment or a sense of negativity. My son was easily motivated by his sensei’s fun and active approach to instruction. Four years later, karate is as much intellectual as physical for him, providing a growth mindset that he needs. That focus on growth is important for my daughter, too. Karate is a key part of her transformation from a quiet, shy girl who is afraid to do new things to a quiet, shy girl who has as much confidence in her heart and tiny body as she does her mind. We love being part of the community at the Eastside dojo, a very supportive place to learn, be active, and make friends.“

“My daughter has been with Gensheimer Martial Arts for the past 10 years, since the age of 6. Jeanie and the other Senseis are fantastic, and have instilled confidence, strength, and leadership into her. The program teaches discipline, respect, and courtesy in a fun environment. You could not find a better program for kids or adults.“

“Great club. I've gotten more out of training here for a year than I did training for years at other martial arts places.They offer quality instruction in traditional Kodokan Judo rather than merely focusing on strategies for winning competitions. (We do also compete though and members of our club got gold, silver, and bronze at the State Championships recently.) Whether you're interested in Judo for self-defense or just as an artform, this is the place for you. There's also a great deal of emphasis on groundwork here. It's a relatively small club with a relaxed atmosphere.I've got a long way to go and lots of training ahead of me, but I'm confident that Virgil's Judo Club will help me continually improve both as a judoka and a person.“

“My son has become a blackbelt through this school and has loved it all the way through.“

“I stopped in Stockman’s and watched open mats on a Saturday - I saw a higher ranking person (one of the white belt instructors) submit a person that was about 50’pounds heavier than he was. It was IMPRESSIVE and I signed up two days later.

The instruction that the owner and his staff gives is top notch, and they show variations to work around your level of athleticism and body type. The instructors are confident, very competent, and helpful.

Open mats are an absolute blast and it is one hell of a workout - a bi-product of this is that I get better sleep than I have in years. I leave feeling like I actually did something.

As a beginner, when you roll with higher belts they let you work and learn, and match your energy. I’ve been submitted numerous times, but imo that’s part of learning and is humbling in a good way.

There are many high ranking belts that go to Stockman’s which I think speaks volumes.

I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people I’ve met there. Gives me something to look forward to. I started when I was in my upper 40s and that IS NOT too late“

“Choi martial arts has been a god send for my over all wellness. My stress levels have reduced dramatically. The staff is amazing and gives you individualized instruction. I would highly recommend choi martial arts to anyone looking to implement a fitness regimen and learn self defense.“

“Something free to do in Fountain Square! I think its ages 8 and up for boxing & karate or adult self-defense. Kind of crowded but lots of great people. Very positive atmosphere!“

“Our almost six-year-old has been attending twice a week for a month now and it’s been really great for him to have consistency and commitment to something!“
