Martial Arts Schools in Seattle

“Everyone fits in here. There are pro fighters, amateurs and those just waiting a fun work out. Grade A pad holding best in the business.“

“Our son has been going here for the past 2 years and has absolutely loved it. He not only engages with the physical activity and coordination but also the mental lessons and challenges the dojo offers in the form of values and little bits of homework to engage with those values ( things like honesty, sportsmanship, self control, etc). He had his birthday party here and a friend joined and has loved it too. Great instructors and structure to the classes. Cannot recommend it 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.“

“Master Elmore is great with kids of all abilities and ages. My son has been participating for a little over a year and loves what he is learning and is his calm place.“

“I joined November 2022 and would like to share this review/experience after 17 months. I grew up playing soccer and doing things like track/field since I was 5 years old. In my phase of late 20s/early 30s, I wanted to try something new and decided on martial arts.Quantum is a very welcoming place, extremely inclusive, and a community driven dojo. I wanted to learn a blended style of both grappling and striking. The Quantum style offers that and more. I also received the unexpectedly benefit of stretching/warm-ups every class - I feel way more amazing on the inside than I ever did a year ago due to training my flexibility!The first two weeks are free and you can also make other arrangement with the teacher(s) to figure out how to make best of the trial period. If you are looking for a hardcore MMA gym, this is not the place. If you seek inspiration, courtesy, friends that you can punch, and learning inwardly how far you can go, Quantum Martial Arts might just be for you! I encourage you to give a try!“

“Really great community-my daughter was welcomed and really enjoys Capoeira. Very much recommend lessons.“

“Master Jennifer's dojo is a treasure of the PNW. Her team is incredible, each bringing their own aspects to the martial arts journey that leads to a well rounded experience and education. Sensei Amanda is so welcoming and great at teaching forms, Sensei Raven is incredible at helping students embrace a growth mindset and Sensei Taye has a breadth of knowledge he can easily break down into digestible terms. Master Jennifer fosters inspiration in her students in their techniques and exploration of philosophy that is applicable inside and outside of the dojo. Students here are friendly and welcoming, and losing ~40 pounds in 6 months through the exercise doesn't hurt either. If you're curious, try out a class. You won't regret it!“

“Two World Champion women teach at this school. Sifu Restita and Sifu Kat are the kindest, humblest and most inclusive instructors you could hope for, despite the fact that they could both tear anyone apart! This place is welcoming to all levels of experience and interest, with many different options for studying different martial arts.“

“Best school ever! Great Sifu who cares about her students and building community. Queer and BIPOC friendly.“

“Well run, clean and friendly dojo. If interested I suggest finding out what day and time the class you are interested in held and see if you can visit. Well geared for young children.“

“I have practiced and taught Oom Yung Doe for many years. I have personally gained many benefits including developing greater strength, speed agility & skill. I have also developed self-discipline, determination, confidence & self-reliance. These traits have brought me great gains both personally & professionally resulting in boosting my career, communication skills & personal relationships. Of course I have had my share of self-defense incidents from time to time over the years and am grateful to Oom Yung Doe and Grand Master "Iron" Kim for giving me the skill & ability to completely dominate my attackers in these situations.“

“You could not pick a better Kung Fu School, a great kids class and the real deal adults Kung Fu training with traditional Chinese Medicine at top quality. Sports medicine and therapeutic massage with movement therapy. Sifu Dan is amazing!“

“The folks at CAA are very friendly and welcoming while keeping a healthy level of intensity. Training here has been one of the best decisions I've made in recent years. Whether you're interested in BJJ or Muay Thai, you'll get an awesome workout, learn valuable skills, and meet some really cool people!“

“Sensei Eric was a great teacher and very friendly. I got personal attention throughout the class and loved the aura of the place. Definitely recommend everyone to try this place at least once. Aikido is a beautiful martial art form.“

“Best gym in the PNW. This is the place to be whether you're looking to get in better shape and learn some self defense, or if you are ready to become a serious fighter.“

“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!“
