“The most holistic place I have ever done personal training. Health focused, scientifically minded, and performance and outcomes driven. Kaylee is an incredible trainer and physical therapist, and the rest of the staff at C3 shines as well. Chi, the owner of the gym brings together many years of personal and professional experience with high level athletic training, and imbues this knowledge into his team.“

“I've been training at the dojo for almost 4 years now and I couldn't have asked for a better place to train. From the first lesson, they made me feel at home and part of the family and I began to learn the way of Karate. The level of knowledge and dedication is something I have not seen at other dojos and I feel lucky to be a part of it. Whether it's online classes or in person, there is something for everyone at all skill levels and ages. Best place I've ever trained by far, and is well worth a visit.“

“First, I really wanted to thank Master Gomes and everyone who is a part of the dojang. My son is just SO HAPPY, more confident and his hands and feet are getting stronger. I have tears in my eyes writing this because of his tremors he has been teased and bullied and also when covid started he has been harassed for being Vietnamese. I am proud to be mixed as well as both my boys but understand sometimes we get treated differently. Last Friday when he broke the board he was ecstatic! And I wanted to truly thank you all for building his confidence.“

“My previous academy had closed down due to the pandemic, and I spent over two years searching for another bjj academy to restart my training. I must have trained at at least a dozen schools before word of mouth led me to MassBJJ Arlington in December 2023. I live in West Roxbury and gladly make the journey to Arlington every week, not just for the high caliber of instruction, but for the training partners who are welcoming, respectful, and (most importantly) highly skilled. Added bonus: weight training and cardio equipment.“

“I’ve been going here since for 12 years. Great family atmosphere, top notch coaches with tons of experience, great mix of competitive fighters and enthusiasts. No egos. Welcoming to all. But still pumps out UFC; fighters and Muay Thai champions. The opposite of a McDojo.“

“Master Darryl is one of the most respectable, honorable, and dedicated people I've ever met. I've been a student at this school for nearly 2 decades and Darryl has been a true mentor for me growing up. Kenpo Martial Arts Center is the best place around to learn karate for any age: from small children to adults. I cannot recommend Darryl and his school enough!“

“This is a fantastic place, and a wonderful community, both for kids and adults. The instructors are excellent teachers, but what I love most is their commitment to each student. For adults, they meet you where you are in terms of fitness and knowledge, from absolute beginners to students who been practicing for years, and they then figure out how you can improve from there. For the kids, I have never seen a team of instructors invest such attention and care to every child in every class and then achieve success through positive encouragement. I've been a student myself for over ten years, as has my child, and I'm still learning and growing. Can't recommend highly enough!“

My daughters have discipline, focus, and a love for physical fitness. New Vision Academy is an outstanding school!“

“I gave my son the choice of another school but my son would only choose this school. He likes the strictness of the Senseis and also the school creed. The Senseis teach self defense and honorable fighting, and don't try to condition the kids to do vicious underhand fighting to deliberately hurt opponents. We were at a tournament when we saw competitors from other schools and we could clearly see a difference in kids and how they were taught from the way they fought other kids. I'm quite proud that many of the kids from this dojo won different medals for form and fighting, reflecting the quality of instruction. Also, the dojo is know for having awesome holiday parties for Halloween and Xmas!!!“

“So happy we found One Step Beyond! My boys (6 and 9) tried soccer, baseball, flag football, but nothing “stuck” until we discovered karate back in March 2021. Fast forward to two classes a week (soon to be 4 ?), 2 belt tests and now a competition team/weapons (all dull, nothing sharp here), my boys couldn’t be happier. Sensei Marie and Sensei Erin are wonderful with the kids and it’s a wide range of all ages and backgrounds. I can honestly say that karate has also taught my boys discipline, fitness, patience and self esteem. I highly recommend One Step Beyond!“

“Excellent teachers Gafa and Gigante! Great respectful students, outstanding cantigos (songs) and instuments. All techniques are in Brazilian Portuguese. Took my first class here and I'm staying. I also noticed they are very respectful of the whole Capoeira community as a whole and as a Brazilian, I really enjoyed everything about them. Reasonable price, they respond if you get in contact, 100/100 experience!“

“I have been training at Boston Martial Arts for more than 10 years. After trying a number of different martial arts and schools, I was thrilled to find a dojo that is inclusive and diverse, offers a fun and cooperative learning environment, and teaches a really engaging and interesting art. After having had a bad experience at another dojo I realized how important it is to have a teacher that I deeply respect and whom I could see myself learning from for a very long time, and Mr. Mark Davis is that for me.I trained here throughout my grad school years and return to train whenever I can even though I no longer live in the area because the school and the art have beclme an important part of my life.Highly recommend.“
