Testimonials...

• Zoe's focuses more and has gained more respect for authority. (L.L. teacher)
• I feel very grateful that Family Martial Arts Academy is our family's partner in building character in our children. Yes it is true they love the school and it is true that learning karate is both challenging and fun. However, as a parent, I never lose sight that every family needs partners to stress the values taught every day at home. This school has an unbeatable combination of instructors who are outstanding role models and a commitment to character and physical development for every participant. (Rabbi Dr. Eric M. Lankin)
• My older son refused to participate in athletics. Then he came to a birthday party at FMAA. The next week, he enrolled and that was two and a half years ago he faithfully attends twice a week. My youngest son couldn't wait until he was four, so he could start too. FMAA reinforces the respect and discipline we demand at home. It's a unique environment that surrounds them with positive values while they benefit from exercising their bodies. (S.G.)
• Our son has been taking classes at Family Martial Arts Academy for 6 years. Karate has helped him overcome many challenges he has faced growing up. While some children seem to be born athletes and never meet a sport they don't like, others shy away from physical activity. Our son was the latter type. In his last report card from school, the P.E. teacher noted our son's dedication to staying fit and said he is developing into a fine young athlete. This success never could have happened without Sensei Joel Levy's constant encouragement through the years. (A.S.)
• My son Darius is 8 years old and has been a member of Family Martial Arts Academy for years. Since his attendance, I have witnessed him become more focused through class participation and monthly dojo assignments. Family Martial Arts Academy has done an excellent job of reinforcing the values we encourage at home. Respect, self-discipline, goal setting, confidence, taking ownership and the importance of being on time. He has carried these values with him during school and they have become a reflection of his personality. Darius has also become driven. His ultimate goal is to become a black belt. He knows that dedication, a healthy attitude, and the guidance of the Family Martial Arts Academy staff will help him achieve his goal. (F.G.)
