There is a genuine welcoming atmosphere and family feeling that envelopes you from day one. Master Barron has a gift of working with each student and encouraging them to achieve their best! It has been exciting to see my grandchildren grow and develop.“

“I have been attending cardio kickboxing for about a year now and I am very happy. I have lost weight and my A1C has come down.“

“Super amazing place. I'm 50 and my son is 9. When my son saw me training, Hebsaid "Dad I want to do it too". I'm stronger, healthier, and more confident as a family protector. ????“

“My four-year-old son and I first stopped by KMA last year, and found Master Song to be an exceptionally gifted teacher. While another martial art place in the area asked me to wait until my son was five years old, KMA was willing to let us give it a shot and they exercised extreme patience. My son felt so safe that he developed a little brother crush on Master JJ and even drew a card for Master JJ on his own. Although it has been 10 years since I had practiced Martial Arts myself in a formal dojang, the family-friendly culture of the place led me to start going myself... And, under Master Song's tutelage, I even finished off my remaining requirements (yes, I had to brush off a lot of dust for sure :)) for a certified WT Kukiwon black belt just this month. I now volunteer teach a beginners class on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Hope to continue to grow as a martial artist, and to do this in the decades ahead.“

“It is a good place for your child's discipline, it has helped my daughter a lot and she has met new friends...“

“We couldn't have chosen a better place for our daughter. Master Walker is INCREDIBLE with children; maintains a safe environment and always keeps the kids active, training, making sure they fully understand the training being provided. A bonus to the Parents, is that Master Walker offers a Parents Night Out evening. Parent's Night Out offers our daughter an evening full of different activities, food, and a movie! Great evening for all always!!! We began just immediately after COVID and have remained and will remain as our daughter is more than 3/4 of the way to Black Belt! Thank you Master Walker!!!!“

“Been here 40 years ago, Master Kim Soo might not remember me, but long time ago he told our class that he fought Bruce Lee. We didn't believe him at first, but then he showed us a picture of him and Bruce Lee. I believe Bruce Lee was doing a demonstration on him. I just want to tell master Kim Soo thank you.“

“My son started there when he was three. We had to move to another state . My wife was transferred. We miss him. I have nothing but praise for him.“

“Master Rick and staff do a tremendous amount of effort to excel on how to teach the art of taekwondo and also teach the students good behaviour and discipline. If you are considering joining taekwondo classes you might want to give Talium a chance.“

“My son joined Sensei School of Martial arts at 6 years old. He stay with then all the way until he became a junior black belt at 11. I am so very grateful for the school's dedication and support. They are based on integrity and discipline which are very important skills to master as a human being.“

“Very nice clean facility. The staff is very welcoming and knowledgeable of their martial arts style.“

“Good people here, the adult class has a mix of people new to Shotokan and those returning after a few years away. Sensei Alex has taught me physical and mental aspects of the sport which I'm still learning, I have developed in self discipline and strength....the classes are also fun! You will feel welcome here.“

“My nephew has been going to their classes since last summer, and he loves it! He goes 3-4 times a week, and often chooses to go to their Saturday classes as well because he likes it so much. We notice he has better focus and is more disciplined from what he is learning at the classes. It helps him spend his energy so he isn’t so hyper at home. We look forward to keeping him in the classes.“

“My experience has been fantastic. I love how exceptional this martial arts program is. My favorite aspect is how well-structured and organized it is--everything is truly by the book, and I really appreciate that. Additionally, the staff is incredibly hands-on; they meticulously correct your form and posture, letting you know when you're doing something incorrectly and showing you the right way“

“Don’t let me get started, I love this place so much it has been my childhood I started this class when I was either 3 or 4 I have learned many self defense techniques and more manners because they do not play and I also used to help instruct and I’m now a retired black belt .“

“As a parent, watching your child grow and develop is a priceless experience. When my 5-year-old started BrazilianJiu-Jitsu classes at Midtown MMA Houston, he was a beginner with much to learn. Now, a year later, the transformation is remarkable.Professor Chris, Coach Chris and all the instructors have not only taught my child the techniques of Jiu-Jitsu but also valuable life skills. My child’s self-esteem and confidence have soared, and he always had so much joy on practicing jiu jitsu at Midtown MMA Houston.I highly recommend this academy to any parent looking to enrich their child’s life with martial arts.“

“Our 7-year-old daughter has been attending The Houston Center for Taekwondo for 2.5 years, and it has been an outstanding experience. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and attentive to each student’s growth, helping build both physical skills and confidence. Over the years, we’ve seen her progress not only in her taekwondo abilities but also in her self-discipline and focus.

The center fosters a welcoming environment where young students feel motivated and excited to learn. The classes are well-organized, combining technique with valuable life lessons, like respect and perseverance. Watching her thrive and develop a true passion for the sport has been a rewarding journey. We highly recommend The Houston Center for Taekwondo to any family looking for a nurturing and professional martial arts school.“
