“I love Kung fu classes taught by Sifu Scott. The class is conducted with mutual respect, professionalism, and personal comfort. For a middle age female, at first I felt shy and intimidated. But quickly (after 3 lessons), I feel energetic, zen, motivating, inspired, philosophical, and confident. The class offers so much more to me than just a self defense. I am learning self confidence, self discipline, and self reflection everyday with the classes. Thank you Mr/Sifu Scott for providing such inspiring lessons.“

“This school is really nice! I had a lot of fun and gained experience over there! Master is just so great, really experienced and always teaches kids not only how to fight, but the philosophy thing. Defiantly recommend!“

“Excellent teachers with so much patience with little kids. We got our daughter started early for taekwondo to help her develop body confidence since she is the smallest in her class and was unfortunately, facing subtle bullying in her class. Master Shin and the teachers go above and beyond to help her learn things that she finds mentally and physically challenging. Cannot recommend this school enough!“

“AMA is fantastic! My daughter has been doing karate there for more than 4 years. She started in person before the pandemic, took online classes when AMA pivoted to online, has been back in person for months and is preparing to take her junior black belt test this month. The instructors are great and Mr Herrman is very responsive. I love that they teach karate and how to be an all-round good human. AMA gave my daughter a reliable activity and reliable role models during the pandemic, when not much else was reliable. I can’t say enough good things about AMA.“

She is more confident and loves going to class. Master Kim, Master Cho, Master Murray and all the instructors are kind, push people to do their best, and are excellent! I highly recommend them for all ages to learn taekwondo.“

“Gracie Barra Kirkland provides an excellent environment for anyone's Jiu-Jitsu journey. The camaraderie and friendships formed here are invaluable. Attending their in-house no-gi tournament with my family was a blast, thanks to the welcoming atmosphere and clean facilities. The genuine kindness of everyone at the gym, coupled with their commitment to students' growth, makes it a top recommendation for those in the Kirkland area. It's a place where you not only learn Jiu-Jitsu but also evolve into a better version of yourself.“

“I have really enjoyed my experience as apart of the PNW Kirkland Krav family. They are great people, all very different from each other that have come together to learn self defense.“

“My time here for the last 2 years has been amazing. The masters are teaching me discipline and how to defend myself. Taekwondo has also dramatically increased my self confidence. The masters are great with young and old kids. Even if these young kids are shy the masters get through to them and build their confidence. I've seen students go to being shy and not caring about there kicks to being very social and kicking with grate form. And the masters don't do this by being rude or being aggressive which I think is a stereotype of "breaking them down and building them back up" as they say but instead focus on being kind and slowly getting them out of their shell and Encouraging them to try new things. And if they aren't ready then that's ok to them. It is a great place to learn and get out of your comfort zone to reach new goals. I truly believe this is a great place and I am proud to say I have taken classes here for 2 years and am nearly a black belt-EP“

“More than just a great karate dojo and an excellent after-school program - it's a supportive and fun community! So happy my son became a part of it 5 years ago and continues to benefit from coming here!“
