We love this martial arts school! Our son has been going for 2 years and has gained confidence in himself while having fun with friends and getting a good workout in. The school is very organized, they know the kids by name, and make them feel like family. Great overall experience for our entire family!
I have seen my child shine at Championship Martial Arts! The instructors are wonderful and caring to everyone’s needs. If you have a question the responses are quick and very informative. I highly recommend them to anyone!
After having tried another place, I went in very skeptical. I was so pleasantly surprised at the professionalism and individual attention given to each student from day 1! Some groups are larger than others, but their is always someone watching and making sure each student is instructed with love and respect to do his/her best. EVERY staff member knows my child’s name and has encouraged him in some way. We have seen this positive environment spill over into home and school and we are so thankful!
My son, on the left, has been training in martial arts with Master Chan and Rachael at Championship Martial Arts for 11.5 years! As I sit back and think about years, I cannot begin to explain how much I appreciate them! They have shown kindness, leadership, and support! They are a positive team to my son and so many others!
Jordan has learned that practice and effort brings positive results as well as patience. He has more confidence that he displays in and out of the school because of the values and benefits he learns during his training!
As a parent I am amazed at his evolution, learning to work through struggles and overcome so much! I love watching the times that the staff at Championship Martial will celebrate with the kids each time a new challenge has been surmounted!

Championship martial arts is more than just a school and a team, it's a family!! What started as a way for one daughter to gain confidence turned into our whole family finding passion, strength and dedication within ourselves. I am a mother of two and can't think of any better place to take care of my physical health, my mental health and my families well being. CMA has changed our lives in so many ways and we are so grateful to be a part of such a humble team!!
