My son used to do Tkd for a few years and after that joined JKD. He has been here for over 4-5 years now from the kids class to now the adults.

The last four years I spent training here has completely changed my life. At NYMAA, I’ve learned more than just how to defend myself, I’ve learned the true essence of what it means to be a martial artist through practicing Jeet Kune do.
I spent a good deal of my young adult life training at NYMAA. It changed my life.
I attribute much of my own personal growth and the success of my business to the time I spent with Sifu Dino Orfanos.
Life took me in a differen't direction sometime around 2010 and now, over a decade later, I'm back. This time, with my four year old son. He loves it.
The instructors are amazing and talented. Beyond that, everyone is kind and respectful.
NYMAA harbors a place for good people who aim to better themselves and those around them.
