"I was in town for work and stopped by for a class. Great instruction, clean facilities and very welcoming. Will definitely try to go back when in Fort Wayne again."
Crista Brown
"We are obsessed with this place. My kids are so confident after only a few months going to classes here. I'm talking a women's empowered class with my teenage daughter to prevent sexual and physical assault. There are adult classes, little kid classes, bigger kids and teens! Me and my husband and our four kids would all give this place a 💯 rating."
Amanda Laney
"My kiddo has been going here for four years now. He has learned a lot and the instructors are very Informative. They have classes and private lessons. Great place for kids to learn how to protect themselves without punching and kicking. Thank you Chet."

After all this time he has to be truly impressive today congratulations to you you definitely put into work I just happened to look you up today as I have mentioned you a few times other instructors here in New Jersey. Congratulations on your accomplishments"
