In just a few short months, he has already progressed to his yellow belt, showcasing the incredible impact the center has had on his personal growth and development. One of the standout features of DKC is its commitment to instilling essential life skills in its students. The instructors go beyond teaching martial arts techniques incorporating valuable lessons about kindness, responsibility, accountability, and perseverance into each session. These ongoing teachings have not only enhanced my grandsons martial arts abilities but have also positively influenced his focus and discipline, while creating a space where learning goes beyond physical techniques to encompass valuable life principles.I wholeheartedly recommend DKC to anyone seeking a transformative and enriching martial arts experience.“

I’m so excited to see what the future holds since she’s seeing such improvements in such a short time. All the instructors are fantastic and so patient with the littles ! Love Love Love everything about medford martial arts !“

“My 4 year old son has been training at Amerikick Marlton for about 6 weeks. He loves it! He asks us every day if he has class and is disappointed when he doesn't. As parents, we love how much attention is given to teaching discipline and focus which any 4 year old could use more of. Also, all of the sensei's are great and show an incredible amount of patience with the kids. We envision being a part of this community for a long time!“

“We’ve been going to WMA for years now. First with my son and now my daughter. WMA has a welcoming environment for every child and every child’s learning ability. I’ve seen children who start the class having trouble paying attention learn how to focus and they improve weekly. The teachers are constantly going to workshops to improve their own techniques and understand how to work with children of all age groups.<br><br>I could go on and on. If you want a friendly, welcoming, and enriching environment for your child, send them here!<br><br>⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I've been coming here for over 10 years and they're like family to me. On so many levels, I am a completely different person than when I walked through that door the first time, wish I started sooner! It's not an exaggeration to say that they have changed my life for the better.“

“Hello, my name is William O’Brien. This Saturday I will be testing for my black belt at Kraus Karate. My journey with karate started four years ago. I am nine years old now. My mom signed me up after my brother was born to help me get my energy out and learn how to control myself. I kept getting a little wild at school. I have learned and achieved so many things with the help of karate. For example, karate has improved my confidence, coordination, and balance. When I first started, I couldn’t even jump rope. Now I can jump rope, balance myself, do push-ups and lift my mom up! I have met some great friends and people through the sport. There hasn’t been a single lesson I have learned through karate that I haven’t liked. Through karate, I was taught how to accept criticism and self-reflect. I gained the skill of how to set goals and achieve them. This is something I did not learn in school. It has helped me achieve other goals in my life and school. This year I won student of the month for the first time and was so proud of myself! Karate gave me patience, as a result I was able to grow out my hair for two years. and donate it to cancer. Lastly and one of the most important aspects of my karate group, I have a great instructor! Mr. Kraus has taught so much about myself and karate. Karate is a great time and has helped shape me into the person I am today!“

“I have been taking my son to Ryan Wagners Achievement Unlocked since 2019. Master Ryan pushes his students to do their best while being positive, kind, caring and attentive. I have noticed a great change in my son. He has become more open minded, confident, and learned to socialize better in person which has become harder these days with technology. My son always leaves class with a more positive attitude. Miss Debbie at the front desk is a doll! She always greets every single student and parent with a smile on her face. I highly recommend.“

“This facility and location is clean, friendly, and not overly packed, but has well attended classes. I just took my second class with Amy and she is an amazing instructor. Her cues and motivation are perfectly timed and executed. I actually live a mile away from another location, but drive the 25 minutes to this class so that I can take Amy Tynons classes! She teaches every Monday at 6:30 p.m. and you should absolutely check out her classes, especially if you like a challenge. The owners are welcoming and seem to run a great location.“

“Great gym that caters to beginners, intermediate, and advanced athletes! Welcoming and a great facility. Had to stop in while in the area and had a great night of Muay Thai!“

“Amazing school both of my kids go here. My daughter is working on her second black belt had been apart of the school since she was five she’s now 17. Couldn’t ask for a better teacher George is amazing. We feel like family every time we are there just an amazing school.“
