Martial Arts Schools near Pelham

“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!“

“Tiger An'sTiger An's is the best in Taekwondo that will Teach more than TKD., Thier experience will bring health, relationships and TKD to a higher level“

“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.“

“I reached out to Sensei Nic asking if he would have me as a guest while I was in New Hampshire for work. I train under a very credible Kyokushin school with a strong lineage in Canada. Sensei Nic's training is true to his own lineage and shows a clear grasp of the Kyokushin teachings.I was impressed with his students as well, who showed me great hospitality while I attended training with them, and welcomed me fully.Sensei Nic has a unique approach to developing kumite which I found very challenging as well as novel which I appreciated greatly. His conditioning was almost identical to that which I experienced with my own teachers who developed their methods through long training in Japan. This is a VERY good thing! His kihon practice is strong and adheres to the traditional way, however I found his approach to practical application of Kyokushin to be an excellent blending of tradition and modern self defense. I really enjoyed it - Sensei Nic is one of only a handful of Kyokushin Sensei's who have not only practiced kumite with me, but also grappled! I cannot express the value of this to prospective students of Kyokushin.Overall, I rate this Dojo very highly and look forward to sharing what I could learn to my peers, students and teachers at my home dojo.Thank you Sensei for having me, and to anyone looking for karate - GO HERE. THIS IS GOOD KYOKUSHIN.“

“If you're looking for a place where you can feel empowered and get a great workout, look no further than Dojo Sante. Sensei Matt Babine is an awesome instructor and motivator.“

“This is an amazing karate academy with Thai chi kobudo and shorin rue and goju ruI had so much fun and they except all ages over 3 years.“

“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 :)“

“I always wanted to do Taekwondo but as an adult I felt it was too late to start until I found this place. I felt welcomed from the start and fell in love with the place. The owner is a sweetheart and she made me feel at home. The atmosphere is great and I finally found a workout I can be relatively consistent with! I'm a person who gets bored easily so that's saying something that I've been here for a few years now. 1000 out of 10 would recommend!“

“A dojo that feels like home - the most wonderful place for our kids to learn karate. Senseis do an incredible job guiding and encouraging the kids to do better and want to improve. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Our family has been here for almost two years, and we'll never go anywhere else.“

“Through GSKC, I've learned the Japanese art of kendo from the most kind, patient, diligent and mindful teachers I've ever had partaking in a martial art. Everyone's a joy to be with here, for that matter. The only kendo club I could find around that's thankfully run by the best folks around. Definitely worth visiting to learn about one of Japan's most popular martial arts from a dojo that forever holds open arms.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 teacher Miss O is the best and an incredible teacher of Kenpo Karate I think the world of her! Joel Levesque“

“Great place for kiddos!The director, Mr. Kevin and the team are extremely easy to work with.My son is excited to go there every day ??“

“I didn’t know what to expect when I signed up for the movement group classes but the experience has been amazing. Ken and the rest of the group made me feel welcome and every week we do something different. Ken mixes in his expertise in martial arts with yoga, strength training and meditation. I’ve been able to increase my flexibility, strength and mobility and do things I didn’t think I could. I’ve never felt better. Thank you Ken!“
