Joy McAdams

"Legacy Martial Arts Academy in Hamilton is truly a gem. Our son started there in the BJJ class. Coach Dan is very patient and supportive with him, realizing that people learn and develop at different speeds. He motivates our son through his instructions each session, my son loves to go, and he has really developed his skills over the last year. Definitely been a confidence booster for him. And he has made new friends there as well. The location near downtown Hamilton is new, clean, lots of parking and family-friendly. We are very pleased with Legacy!"
