“This is a really great program with incredible staff. Awesome summer camp option too. Staff really cares, amazing with kids and my daughter had a great time learning here!“

“We transferred to Action Karate Plymouth Meeting when we moved from out of state. They are a family run dojo and did an amazing job of acclimating our student and allowed him to utilize the belt level he was currently at to start.We love that all of their katas are taught in practical terms of self defense. They also discuss value lessons weekly, where they go over characteristics of leadership, gratitude, goal setting, (we especially love that students are required to set goals so they can see progress). After a year here, our son is also now learning how to become a sensi (teach).I cannot thank them enough for how they are helping him to grow as a person and how welcome we always feel. They feel like part of our family.“

“really nice and super knowledgeable coaches. they really care for your progress as a student. I especially appreciate how much effort Charlie and Kate put into creating a strong sense of community there.“

“Action Karate has made such a big difference to our kiddo! The instructors and leaders are all so warm and helpful. We've watched our child's confidence grow on and off the mat. So grateful our child gets to be part of this caring community!“

“Hello! I am parent of student at Action karate who has been in Action Karate for about 4 1/2 years. He is now training for his black belt!! There has been some hard and trying days for him. he always been on to remind me of of the pledge that they take at the Dojo "QUITTERS NEVER WIN AND WINNERS NEVER QUIT!!!! when I felt like it was becoming too much for him. he proved me wrong surpassed and and earned all his belts on time. I see growth within him. He has gained confidence through the roof along with discipline. I feel like Action karate has helped my son in many way and areas. one thing I can add is he was is Resilient.“

“Learning karate at AmKor has been great for my teen. The school offers beginner classes for older students and adults, which is terrific. It’s a disciplined atmosphere focused on learning, yet so friendly and welcoming. My child feels confident and valued in the diverse community, and she learns something new and exciting in every class!“

“PPMA is a great place! n addition to martial arts they are great at talking about multiple topics (respect, bullies, importance of healthy sleep and eating, cool down methods). My daughter has so much fun every time she goes.“

“This journey, if you choose to take it, is a life changing one.For me, getting into the Intermediate class is when I really got the high of jiu-jitsu, becuase thats where essentially all sparring happens and you really start getting in touch with the art, the people, and the work. Really loved it but I got a concussion during a very intense standing spar (not very common in this sport). Being a grad student, this was really bad, but Phil and the team listened to what happened and helped me out.“

“My kids started at Action Karate Oreland at either 3 or 4 years old. I wanted them to do an activity that teaches them the importance of discipline, respect, focus, and fitness. I have been amazed seeing their growth since joining as some can imagine keeping toddlers still for even a minute can be a challenge. I even became a member myself after months of my son asking me to join him on the mat. It's given us another thing to bond over. I've been enjoying the adult classes as it's introduced me to other wonderful people while learning moves and self defense. We work hard but also have fun and laugh. It has been a great stress relief and gives me a much needed break from work. I always feel great and more relaxed and calm after each class. I highly recommend Action Karate Oreland.“

“My two boys have been going to Master Taekwondo for almost a year and really enjoy training under Master Phil. Having come from another Taekwondo studio in another state, we have been very pleased with the no-nonsense approach here. This is a great place to learn and develop...while having fun. I highly recommend Master Taekwondo.“

“ATA changed my life ! It’s helped me grow in every possible positive way I can imagine. (2nd year student). I plan to continue with it til the day I die, and push my self to endless limits. Master Smith has saved my life in a way and has been a second father to my daughter (6 year student). I owe a great deal of growth and direction to him and the ATA program!“

“My kids really enjoy going here to learn. Classes are thought out well to be age appropriate. Master G has good character, I like his tough but kind approach.“

“Pretty amazing. Master pope is really nice. Never makes u feel like u dont know what you are doing. Explains things patiently! I Recommend taking his lessons for sure!“

“The instructor is very knowledgeable and highly skilled in the traditional and self defense aspect of karate. Students are very fortunate to have the instructor like this.“

“I have trained with Richard Robinson sensei for over 20 years, and have visited his dojo when I am in PA many, many times. This is a great place to learn and train in martial arts. Robinson sensei has Black Belts in multiple styles, and is a most talented instructor in Nami ryu Aiki Heiho. The folks in the dojo are great to train with. There are a handful of instructors who share decades of experience in this dojo. If you like swords, jujutsu, and samurai lore, and live in the Philly/Ft. Washington area, you want to check out the River of Life Martial Arts \\u0026 Wellness Center.“

“IF FIRST IMPRESSION IS IMPORTANT THEN I WILL TELL YOU, SENSEI AND HIS STAFF ARE PROFESSIONAL, ENGAGING AND SERIOUS ABOUT THEIR ART. MY GRANDSON WILL BE A STUDENT TO THEIRS AND HE IS VERY EXCITED TO GET STARTED AND LEARN THIS IS THE REAL DEAL. NO TV STUFF.“

“Best place around, very authentic boxing gym. Great atmosphere. All coaches there have pro-cards. I train here a few days a week. Love being pushed to work hard. Live sparring is my favorite part. Definitely recommend coming here it you want to learn the sport of boxing.“

“Our 7 year old son has been going for over a year to Pro Martial Fit and he loves it. It really has improved his coordination, confidence and self esteem. He’s not quite ready to take on the neighborhood bully yet, but the messaging of being a considerate, helpful, polite, grateful human being has definitely rubbed off.“

“Would give 10 stars if we could. The crew at Action Karate Manayunk are amazing and have helped our little girl so much. Not only she is now excited to attend classes but she has gained so much confidence and self control. Ms. Taura, Mr. C and the entire crew are amazing!!! hi fives and knuckle bumps all the way around.“

“A judo dojo where a 63-year old is welcomed and feels healthier than ever after 6 months of training must be something special. MLJ has a friendly atmosphere where you can learn judo at your own pace. The instructors don't teach only techniques but also safety so you can come back for more. Join us.“

“Awesome, knowledgeable and patient instructor. Sensei D can train you very well. Highly recommended!“

“Nackord Karate is the BEST. They give attentive attention to each child making them feel special and confident. My daughter Sadie is now OBSESSED and wants to go everyday. Great instilling the fundamentals for self control, self defense, and respect.“

“Master Jasper Silvis runs this Wing Chun Academy. He is an energetic, highly knowledgeable and kind teacher that challenges you to do your best while also providing you support and complimenting you along the way.Si-fu Jasper has created such a welcoming, positive, challenging, and fun environment that I always look forward to coming to class.I look forward to coming to class every time because I know that Si-fu Jasper is going to take his time to expertly explain the moves which we are learning and go into detail about how they are used and why.The techniques which we are being taught vary greatly, are perfectly applicable in self-defense to give you the upper hand, and are also a great deal of fun to practice. The students that attend are also great people, and it feels like coming home whenever I go.I highly recommend to everyone that is seeking to learn martial arts to join this academy. Traditional Wing Chun is one of THE BEST forms of martial arts and Si-fu Jasper is an EXCELLENT teacher.“

“My daughter went to this school for two years and it was nothing but amazing ! My kid loved getting up everyday to go to school and she loved her teachers so very much. She talked about them all the time. She has also learned so much as well. She is writing very well and knows her letters and numbers. She is also starting to tell time at home. We were so sad to have to move on from Zhang Sah. The teacher are always available to communicate and work very hard to keep your child safe. The front end staff is great as well and very kind and inviting. They also take all precautions when it comes to covid. You won't be disappointed in the school at all !!“

“Ross Lindy provides a fantastic school to teach martial arts. The investment in my son has been well worth it.“

“Excellent Aikido school. If you're new to Aikido and feeling nervous, Aikido Kenkyukai is a great place to start. Since starting Aikido in 2007, I've trained in Dojos all across the country and as a result have met many Aikido teachers and schools. Kenkyukai is a seamless blend of authentic adherence to Aikido, with a light and welcoming atmosphere. At many dojos, this is like oil and vinegar - either too light hearted, or so serious you risk injury. I'm happy I started training here, and while I've taken various breaks from Aikido, am glad that I've jumped back in.“

“Great dojo! Everyone is super nice, helpful, and very patient with new members. I love this place!“
