Carlos Machado Jiu Jitsu- Watford City

"This is an amazing karate school that I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone of all ages. The owners are absolutely wonderful.... my children love it here and are thrilled everyday when they get to go for summer camp as well as karate and jiu-jitsu. They have learned so much in the time they have been going here. And everyone is like family. Can't wait for my children to succeed even more at this school."

"As summer comes to a close, I’ve been thoroughly impressed with this establishment. While my son does participate in its karate portion, it’s the summer sports camp that he’s had a much heavier presence in. Sensei Kalissa and her husband do an impeccable job managing the group of kiddos that they do. My son has some pretty obvious developmental delays and her level of patience with him is mystifying. There’s a genuine sense of engagement and it shows. My son’s communication skills have actually improved since attending this camp and boy, what an unexpected perk!"

"We got to try a free class and then started with my older son. We love Coach Mike. He is awesome with teaching not only the techniques, but also breaking them down and making sure the kids know each step and component. We have also met the owners, Coach Tim and his wife. They are so welcoming and have created such a great environment for the kids to learn."

"My daughter has been training with Sensei since he opened the Karate program 3 years ago. She will earn her black belt in 2019 at the age of 14. The program took a timid little girl and helped her become a FIERCE young lady. She is a class leader and volunteers her time to work with younger students. She has gained self confidence throughout the belt ranks that she has EARNED! Belts are not given, they are earned! If you want your child to participate in a program that allows them to earn their success, as an individual, without a popularity contest, then Martial arts is what you need! Sensei Tim and Liz support kids and their families through difficult times. The expectations of participants include manners, good grades, class participation, and a philosophy of inner and outer strength. “Though she be tiny...she is mighty.”"
