“So happy at Ocasio’s! My 4.5 year old loves it, the instructors are awesome, and I’m so grateful that they offer a free trial lesson to help you gauge if your child is ready. Awesome program and Deshi was super helpful giving information and coordinating lessons. Highly recommend!“
“We love Pelham Family Martial Arts! And FAMILY really is the key word! They make your whole family feel like part of theirs! Our oldest has been enrolled since the start of the school year. Sifu and Elijah know the names of our other two younger children since the start! They greet us all and make everyone feel welcome. There is something really special about the way they interact with each child in class! My daughter loves her classes and I love seeing her make so much progress not only physically but the concentration and respect that goes along with it! So glad we tried them out last summer during their camp!“
“Sensi Gabriel is a really patient and good instructor. He is currently training two of my sons, one of whom has ASD. The level of care and support from Sensi is second to none, and both boys have learned how to control their bodies and actions under his tutelage. When my daughter is fully potty trained, I expect to enroll her as well.“
“Highly recommended! The staff is wonderful. They are stern, fair, and very patient. The instructors make every class fun for the students. My son has gained self confidence, respect, and defense techniques. He loves karate and Ocasio’s has become like a second family to us!“
“My daughter has not been here very long but I have never seen her this excited about an activity before! She has Autism/ADHD and it has been very hard to find spaces where she feels comfortable. I've been sitting in on her classes and the instructors are top notch! The kids love them, the classes are always high energy and very positive. The classes always have variety and the kids are always learning something new.I LOVE all the lessons that are incorporated into the class. She really looks up to these instructors and we have noticed her repeating certain things at home that she learns in class, so I believe this will definitely help her behavior and confidence. They were also SO welcoming and kind to my other daughter who has a more severe level of Autism - we had her come and do a little "interview" thing to see if she would be able to handle the classes yet. They were very patient and helpful and she was able to do much more than I thought! She showed an immediate interest the second she walked in the door, and the instructor was able to get her to smile and laugh and kick, punch, run, and more. Needless to say, she is looking forward to returning in the recommended 6 months to start her own classes :)“
“We feel so blessed for Senior Master Landrum and ATA! We’ve seen such growth in our son and his confidence is blooming everyday. We highly recommend ATA Andover for the life lessons we see our sons learning and the compassion we see in the teaching.“
“Great teachers, great master. Started when I was not but around 10 years old and continued it for a great portion of my life. Master Shin has been nothing but caring and kind, as well as supportive and honest. Even after I have taken a bit of a leave from his business he still continues to help me to this day. I am truly grateful for everything he has done for me and I could not recommend a better Teacher and master to anyone else.“
“Kwon's Taekwondo is a special place for me. My family and I have been trained there for over 7 years. In that time Kwon's has made the cover of TKD Times twice. We've earned our black belts and have met some of our closest friends there. If exercise, gaining self esteem, and learning to respect others are what you want for your child, join Kwon's TKD.“
“Great place I’m a student who has Been here for 6 years now and it really feels like a big family!I have to say I think this place really teaches you a lot.“
“This is the best karate school! My daughter has been going since she was 3 (now 16). I go now too! Mother / Daughter bonding time. :)“
“My daughter has been a student at Shinobi since we moved to Massachusetts 5 years ago. She had studied martial arts her entire life and we wanted a school that taught practical martial arts that worked for women (as well as men). We spent 2 years looking for a school and in the ended landed on Shinobi which was a 45 minute drive in both directions because Dennis and the community are that good. World class real deal teacher here.“
“Owner is extremely nice and knowledgeable! Someone I look forward to teaching my kids!They do a one on one class before throwing the kids into the classes which is awesome that you get to meet the instructor and the instructor gets to know u and ur child! Perfect way to do buisness I felt like. The Place is clean and the people there are approachable! I look forward to coming here ; thank u“
“Cannot recommend enough! A great time and workout! The class is a mixed bag of personalities and skill levels allowing for you to learn from each other and along with each other, while stretching your own personal limits. At least try the trial you'll be hooked!“
