    Respect, discipline, integrity, confidence, honesty, perseverance and the importance of family are…read morejust a few of Valentin Karate's principals.  These principals are taught through demonstration, talks, games and by the way each instructor treats his/her students and their parents.   This review is long overdue.  We have been proud members of the Valentin Karate Family for over two years.  We initially enrolled with hopes to strengthen our son's motor skills while having fun.  Not only did our child's gross motor skills and coordination greatly improve, his self-confidence sky-rocketed.   When you enter any one of the Valentin Karate studios you are immediately greeted by the Master and his instructors.  Every single instructor knows my son's name and his interests.  They encourage him to do his best, to never give up and to be honest.  The instructors go out of their way to make every child shine.  They share each child's triumphs, their successes, they give them opportunities to lead the class and they understand that every child learns in a different way on a different day.  They never belittle students.  They only speak  words of encouragement.  They stress the importance of listening to your parents, doing well in school and they teach anti-bullying.     My son and his baby sister looks forward to going to every class.  Being a spectator from the time that she started crawling, the instructors often included his baby sister in the fun. They acknowledge her in class and during tournaments. They make her feel like a big kid which motivates her to be the best that she can be.  Not only do my children feel great while they are at Karate; I feel great as a parent knowing that my children are learning karate skills and great life lessons.  Valentin Karate offers so many activities for its families and they give so much to the community.   My children not only benefit from learning Tang Soo Do, but they have the opportunity of being part of a second family that nurtures them by giving them self-confidence, discipline and respect for themselves and others. Master Valentin owns and operates Valentin Karate and works along with his spouse, children, siblings and nieces and nephews and so many great instructors.  He stresses that every student is part of his family.  His devotion to his students, his great sense of humor, his knowledge and his extensive experience make him a great instructor and a successful business owner. He regularly visits all three of his locations to offer encouragement to his students.  His brother, Master O, is the Master of the Berlin location.  He is an extraordinary instructor and a man of integrity.  He encourages dialog and communication with parents and students.   He makes students' learning experience fun while instilling the respect and honor that the art of Tang Soo Do deserves.  He continuously goes over and beyond to make my children feel proud and feel like super stars.  He is such a valuable asset to Valentin Karate.   We are so privileged to be a part of this wonderful karate family.

    Leadership Martial Arts has truly exceeded our expectations. Our two kids have been enrolled for…read morealmost two years, and the transformation we've seen in them has been remarkable. Beyond learning martial arts, they've gained confidence in every sense--physically, mentally, and emotionally. They carry themselves with more focus, discipline, and self-belief, both inside and outside the school. The instructors are exceptional: supportive, professional, and deeply committed to each child's growth. They create a positive, structured environment where kids feel encouraged, challenged, and valued. The facility is always clean and well-organized, and the community is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Leadership Martial Arts is more than just a martial arts school--it's a place that helps kids build character, confidence, and life skills. We are grateful to be part of this program and highly recommend it to any parent looking for something truly impactful for their children. Thank you to Sensei Rick and the entire Crew!!

The most impressive thing to me is the big kids helping out with the little kids. The patience, encouragement, and support they give the 3 and 4 years olds is incredible. I'm confident I chose the right school for my daughter. It's not just karate, these kids truly are learning life lessons...integrity, self control, respect, etc.

    My son started white belt a little over a month ago. Bashta Sr. and Jr. are incredible. Jr works…read moregreat with the younglings and serves as a really great role model. What I love about Sr. is that he keeps the kids IN CHECK! Martial arts starts with discipline and many of these young kids are bouncing around or talking or not listening to directions. I appreciate that Sr. keeps them in line. In fact I prefer it because it's so distracting to the other kids who really want to learn and the parents aren't telling their own kids to buckle up and stop playing around.

    I have been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) at Bashta's for 5 months under Adam Laudano. BJJ is…read moreoffered 3 days a week and also 1 more day of open mat. The classes always start off with a 30 minute warm-up that includes a variety of cardio exercises and stretching. We then usually drill a new technique and/or practical self-defense for up to 45 minutes. Adam's instruction is very detail oriented and thorough. He won't let a single person go through class without being able to perform the technique well. He is respectful and is seemingly unlimited in his knowledge of BJJ. After drilling, we "roll" (spar) with each other for 15-30 minutes. I get the sense that i'm part of a "team" because everyone supports each other at regional competitions. Competing is encouraged as a means to grow skills and progress. No one is expected to win, only to learn. All of the students are very respectful and helpful. There is a variety of white belts all the way to black. The black and brown belts are extremely respectful and helpful to the other students. There is no pressure in Adam's classes, or feeling of judgment by others. The classes themselves are very informal, questions are encouraged at all times. My fitness has greatly improved overall from taking BJJ. I used to go to Planet Fitness 4-5 days a week and see much superior results from doing BJJ.
