The progression we've seen in such a short time is incredible. She's not always the best listener, but since starting, we've seen huge improvements at home and at school too. The instructors and owner are so patient, kind, and genuinely care about the kids. You can tell they truly love what they do and take joy in watching each child grow. We can't recommend Family Martial Arts enough--it's been such a positive experience for our whole family!

My children and I have been taking classes at FMAT for a little over 2 months. We have really…read moreenjoyed it! They offer a variety of classes for children, adults, or together as a family. My kids (ages 5 and 6 when they started) look forward to going and often want to practice at home. The children's curriculum is as much about following instructions and developing positive qualities as it is about learning martial arts moves. Similarly, the adult classes spend time on flexibility and mobility that not only improve your technique but overall fitness as well. The instructors are intentional about learning names and will take the time to give students additional help if needed. I came in as a total newbie in my late 30's, so that has been very much appreciated. Overall, highly recommended!

The lineage & knowledge possessed at this organization is as good as there is in the country. Owner & Chief Instructor, Chuck Johnson, has as much knowledge about karate as anyone in Waco. His willingness to work with all students & his patience to help mentor younger students is top notch. There are smaller classes so more personalized training can occur. Belts are not given away at this school. If the material is not known & the students are proving that they are not practicing, they will not pass the test. However, if the student is showing they are giving effort, they will be happy with their progression. We participate in kata & kumite competitions with the AAU & other organizations so there is opportunity to compete. Being a part of our competition team, you will get special workout opportunities improving agility & quickness along with endurance & strength. There are beginner's & intermediate's classes 3 days a week along with the opportunity for advanced training 2 days a week. There is opportunity to train in BJJ as well with AAMA. We also travel to seminars across the country to meet & train with the top self-defense practitioners in the industry to keep our skills sharp & ready. If you are looking to get in shape, learn a traditional martial art, or train for real-life self-defense application, come check us out at AAMA in Waco!

It was uncalled for. Frustrated or not, for him to be rude to me was unprofessional. I am not his student and I was not unkind or disrespectful toward him. I was picking up my children from school and because of the program my daughter is in, she is dismissed in the same area the after school program is dismissed to but 5 to 10 minutes prior to the end of the day. Because I have a 2 year old as well, its easier to park at the curb to have less worry of having to chase a 2 and 3 year old than the back of a parking lot. I'd have moved sooner however I asked that they dismiss my 5 year old to me as well so waited an extra couple minutes which is apparently too much of an inconvenience despite the children Not having been dismissed to them yet. If this is how I am treated visibly taking care of 3 children, I will certainly not be sending my children to him to see how he treats them.

People who looked like it was their first time touching a gun (flinching and not knowing how to drop the slide to chamber a round) passed. Don if I remember correctly was a great guy to take a class with he was pretty funny. All the people who work there can talk your ear off and are very nice people including Alice. A good place to go if your teaching someone to shoot for the first time or to zero your optic. I wouldn't come here If you're someone who shoots competitively or shoots regularly. A surprise to me being from CA is that this a fudd range, more strict than what I was used to back home, they don't allow the "general public" to draw from the holster.(kinda ironic that they hold license to carry, but don't let you practice the "carry" part) You can't stand or shoot rifle any closer than 25yards. Very nice people again, but they will treat you like it's your first time shooting a gun (which is great if you just bought your first gun). I used to come multiple times a month and always brought a friend but have since started going to Webers since they allow you to Draw, Double tap, and have a "tactical range" where u can stand using your rifle.
