"My experience with Chicago Martial Arts has been exceptional. Master Lee is passionate about seeing their students succeed. I couldn't be happier with this school."
"I am so glad that we decided to sign out son up for Little Ninjas. Master Lee is amazing with the kids. He makes the class fun but also is not afraid to let the kids know when they are doing something wrong. Our son had never been so excited about any activity. He is all smiles from the minute he walks in the door and doesn't want to leave when it is over. Master Lee is the best. I definitely recommend Chicago Martial Arts / Brazilian Top Team Jiu-Jitsu."
"My daughter has been training at Chicago Martial Arts for almost 4 years, and I still can’t believe she’s now a black belt! When she first started, I never imagined this journey—but thanks to Mr. Lee’s guidance, encouragement, and the way he makes every class fun, she stuck with it and kept growing. Mr. Lee has an incredible gift for connecting with kids. He knows how to challenge them, encourage them, and most importantly—make it fun. He’s helped my daughter grow not just in strength and skill, but in discipline and self-belief. Highly recommend Chicago Martial Arts to any family!"
"Chicago Martial Arts and Master Lee are truly incredible. Master Lee’s influence on the kids is nothing short of amazing. Not only do they learn martial arts techniques, but they also develop a deep understanding of the philosophy behind it—focusing on respect, confidence, discipline, and focus. Master Lee and his assistants strike the perfect balance between creating a positive, playful environment and maintaining a no-nonsense approach that helps kids of all ages thrive. The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, encouraging growth both physically and mentally. It’s inspiring to see how much the kids enjoy their classes while building lifelong skills like confidence, fitness, and respect. Chicago Martial Arts is a true gem, and Master Lee’s dedication to his students is unmatched. Highly recommend this place to any parent looking for a fun, meaningful, and impactful martial arts program for their kids!"
