I wholeheartedly recommend this school to anyone looking to make themselves the best they can be, and especially for children who will benefit immensely from these vital skills as they navigate our challenging and ever-changing world.

“My kids have been going for a little over two years and we love them! They are located in an outdoor mall so there's parking available. The Masters are all great with the kids; very supportive, encouraging, lively, while instructing and guiding the children so they enjoy the class. There are some new kids that come that may be reticent in the beginning; but the Masters quickly get the kids smiling and participating. You can tell they put their hearts and all into each class to make it enjoyable for the kids. They offer sibling discounts as well. And they also have sparring classes.“

“Our family has been part of the Tiger Shulman’s Huntington studio for 2 years. This experience has been beyond my expectations of when I first sat down with Sensei Castillo to talk about enrolling my child. At the time I was thinking ‘This will help my child face the bus bullies’. Two years later, I can see that what Sensei has given my family goes way beyond my first thought.My review is lengthy. Here are the highlights:1) Sensei Castillo is a truly gifted and exuberant instructor. His energy, wisdom and love permeate the entire studio.2) I have seen my child grow physically and mentally. This new growth is manifested in and outside the studio. In a nutshell: my child is genuinely thriving in life.3) This studio has a warm and welcoming community. And it is spotless clean.5) I was inspired to join the studio and I love it.This studio is owned by Sensei Castillo. He deeply cares about every single person that walks into his studio. This includes all his students and their parents. Moreover, Sensei expertly oscillates between his young students and his older students, keeping his energy constant and to the level of his student. Among the many valuable traits Sensei has is true genuine discipline, which radiates throughout the whole studio. He leads by example. He leads with true love. And he holds the bar deservedly high for everyone to rise and thrive and feel proud. I have seen my child become more mature and attain more self-control and self-love. This was illustrated when my child shared with me how to persist in a difficult physical game: “I kept telling my body positive things to keep going.” These words solidified our commitment to maintain our child learning with Sensei.Sensei micromanages his entire studio. It is impeccably clean and organized. His coaches are trained and monitored by him to preform like him teaching his students. He also is the studio manager, membership administrator, and schedule coordinator. The studio culture is warm and welcoming. Everyone says hi and are happy to see you. It is almost like the show Cheers, but with punching bags. And this is what inspired me to join the studio.My child inspired me to try this studio. Here is how this unfolded for me. I have been active my adult life participating in a plethora of fitness programs. At this point in time something was missing in my fitness need: a sense of community. When I first tried a kickboxing class, I felt so inadequate and weird, and embarrassed. I am a fit person, but I was surprisingly uncomfortable in the studio with other students. So, after that first class I did not go back. Sensei let me be. He was gently waiting on the mat for me to be ready to come back. Months passed by and an email came announcing a 60 day challenge. And with the mind set of “I am changing to be uncomfortable” I returned to the mat to embrace the uncomfortable. Oh boy, I stink at this kickboxing thing. I am the most uncoordinated person in the world, and it takes me a long time to teach my limbs how to move. But, in this new uncomfortable space I have found growth. And I love my adult beginner kickboxing class. First, Coach Antony is a good fit for me. He is a baseball athlete, and he does excellent explaining and demoing the moves. Second, it is at 6 am. I love starting my day punching and kicking and then I can go on with my day and not have to think about: “I have to do my workout”. And my classmates are a pleasure to train with and I look forward to seeing them and punching with them. And it is quite refreshing to do an activity that has a lot of male energy.In summary, this martial arts studio is a gem. Children and adults convey on the same mat to learn and teach the art of being peaceful, which comes when you can defend yourself and hold your ground. Moreover, this studio is populated with members that deeply care for each other and are constantly nourishing their growth as individuals in the community. This studio empowers their members to thrive on and off the mat.“

“This is my son’s first group/sport/extra curricular activity and I have to say I couldn’t be happier. The staff is amazing with the kids! The instructors have a great way about them making the classes fun while teaching them important skills. My son is shy and emotional and no matter what mood he’s in they get through to him and get him to participate in the class. I highly recommend Raijin for parents looking for an activity for their kids.“

“I would definitely recommend! My son has been going each week since September and loves it so much. His strength has definitely improved and has gained so much confidence. The instructors have been amazing as well.“

“My son has been taking the classes for a year and he loves it. Great teachers and they always have different activities for the kids to do. They’re always promoting good mental and physical health and during this times is nice to find a place where my child can get that and also learn self defense.“

“I had a great time at the dojo, and I loved being there, until I went out in a rage. I have been planning to come back to No Fear, It’s just that cannot handle the shame of going into the dojo again, and possibly ruin my reputation in the karate world even more, and also if I move on to another dojo, If the scenario does happen, It would feel wrong to compete against a dojo I was once part of in a competition. I will come back someday, and learn from my mistakes. (Edit: I never did come back...)“

“Awesome would recommend to any person on planet earth who is trying to find a karate place to train at“

“My son Michael began taking lessons from Steve when he was 5 years old. He’s now 21 and still enjoys an adult sparring class at Black Dragon. My daughter also took classes with Steve for several years. I highly recommend Steve as a sensei. He’s wonderful and funny with little kids but great with all age groups. He has really become a mentor to both of my kids. His new location is just one block from the original studio in Centerport.“

“It is more than just physical training. It is also about mental training and discipline. This is a school that strives to build all of its students to their fullest potential.“

“Grand Master Choi is an excellent teacher who pays attention to every child's unique needs. He motivates them and continues to instill self confidence.“

“I have been training at this school for years, most of my life in fact, and I've had some of the greatest moments of my life in this school. I learn more and more every class and have a great time doing so. I've made many friends whom I'll never forget, and I've learned many things I'll never forget. This school is absolutely excellent.“

“My two youngest children have been learning under Master Chung and his amazing team of instructors/leaders for a short 5 months and I am very happy with their positive progression in their overall attitude and confidence. Their programs reinforce good behavior, respect, and kindness towards others as well as motivating them to work hard toward their goals of earning (stars/stripes) or advancing to the next belt rank. I am glad that I chose this dojang specifically over the others in the area and am excited to see how my children further in their own personal growth and TKD training. Thank you to the entire Syosset Champions Martial Arts team for all your hard work, patience and dedication!“
