“I spoke with John prior to training at his gym. I explained that I was in town for a work conference and I was allowed to train with him and his students. I trained in the striking class and, I was shocked at how young and knowledgeable his lead instructor was. If I'm ever in town again I would definitely head back.“

“My family travels from Boston to the Rochester area 2-3 times a year. When we come I stop in and train at Shogun multiple times every visit. Super welcoming to travelers! The head coach Shaun is extremely knowledgeable and has created a fantastic environment for learning. There are over a dozen upper belts who are just as friendly and enjoy working/teaching new people. Whether you're local or traveling, Shogun is a must drop in. ??“

“Joined T’ai Chi school first time in 2017 with my now husband… we did the 10week course as a ‘date activity’. Now 2023 we are back in with the groove this September with friends… could not be happier. Rochester is a great place to live because of niches like this. So grateful!“

“Our daughters have both been with RocMA for over 3 years. All of the instructors and staff are amazing. We originally enrolled to work on focus and confidence for our oldest. We are now part of a great community and family. The girls have learned countless invaluable lessons as well as the skills to work towards their next belt. I highly recommend giving them a try. Great job Mike, Dan, and crew!“

“My 4 y/o daughter loves her experience here so far. She wishes to go everyday at times!“

“I first took a capoeira class to build strength and mobility to prepare me for other art forms. 5 years later, I have found capoeira to be beneficial and dynamic for many different reasons: capoeira has strengthened and built upon my yoga experience and teaching, it has added to and stretched my dance background, it has opened up my passion for music and rhythm and language, and it has put me in the midst of a supportive and amazing community. Our contra-mestre Todd Carcará Russell is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced. All the other teachers have unique perspectives, skill, and joy in teaching. 10/10 would recommend.“

“Anthony Bourdain once wrote."What am i doing at age 58?" He wrote alot about his BJJ experience starting at 58. I'm starting at 65! No better a move could i have made. Found the best Dojo with the finest staff ever. Can't believe i made it as far as i have.Seidokan NY The BEST. Try us out!“

“I have been practicing Martial Arts for a very long time. I know a good school when I see one. Sensei Aric Keyes is one of the best Martial Arts Instructors I have ever known. His patience, eye for detail, and martial knowledge is truly remarkable.I currently take Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes at Kime Karate M/W/F at 7PM. There is a strong friendly atmosphere at Kime Karate and the instructors and students are all there to help you make improvements, not to compete with you.It is a very welcoming school, with excellent instruction and a positive atmosphere. I learn something new every class and have a great time getting in the best shape of my life.I recommend Kime Karate and Sensei Aric Keyes without reservation. Check it out and come see for yourself.Edit - six years later, this is still one of the best martial arts schools in the area. Go check it out for yourself.“

“A phenomenal school to say the least! With highly competent instructors and a very well-structured teaching format. Couldn't be any happier to be learning from the best. Thanks for the opportunity and the experience.“
