    Casey is great! He's kind and patient, and I highly recommend Gilbert Defense Arts for your child that wants to learn Karate.

    Passed my yellow belt test in a little over a month thanks to the instruction of Casey and Jacob at the Gilbert studio!

    The sensei's really care about helping the kids grow in more than just karate (but also karate).

We were spoiled with awesome shirts and treats. Shout out to Mr. T. Hill for treating us to an exhibition of his World Champ skills. I cherish my training at the academy, and these thoughtful, special events that Masters Donald and Kara Garcia and staff provide are added joys. You can see and feel their passion, and how much they value their clients. Thank you for helping me to be UNSTOPPABLE, and extend good out into the world!

    For martial artists of all ages and skill levels, Unstoppable is the place to be! We enrolled our…read moreson and daughter (ages 3 and 5) into classes about a year ago, and since then, my whole family has really benefited from the instruction of Master Garcia and his team. Personally, I've started attending the teens and adults class, which is a good workout and allows me to advance along my black belt track. Each class has great energy and is tailored to the group. For martial arts, there is focused time on techniques, strengthening, form practice, bag work, and even weapons skills, depending on the level of student. The self defense and Warrior X-fit classes are also a welcome component of the school, giving either a solid boot camp style workout, or practical every day applications to stay safe. The teaching style is engaging and fun, while pushing you to safely expand your limits. I've been particularly impressed with the time and attention given to developing students into becoming better people. The Unstoppable team celebrates younger student achievements both in and out of class, and there are many opportunities for teens and adults to enhance their leadership skills as well as directly contribute to helping others. This holistic approach is really what martial arts is all about. As a child, I stopped taking Tae Kwon Do after several years because I didn't understand my trajectory and purpose. I feel that Unstoppable is different in that they encourage students along a pathway through the belt ranks and competition while also investing in them to succeed in both martial arts and life.

    If you're looking for self-defense training that's actually rooted in reality, this is the place…read more Troy is the real deal. His approach isn't flashy or theoretical. It's practical, pressure-tested, and built around scenarios you might actually face. I've trained with Troy and can tell you firsthand: the instruction is top notch, the environment is welcoming, and you leave every session feeling sharper and more confident. He meets you where you are, whether you're brand new or experienced, and pushes you to get better without any ego in the room. 5 . Can't recommend Reality Defense enough!

The trainers (Kristie, Frank and son) provided efficient, informative classroom knowledge. We spent much of the time practicing and reinforcing what we were learning. Much of your natural instincts are wrong and I know I walked in with hesitation about actually hurting someone. It was so helpful to learn, practice real life skills and get permission to do whatever it takes to get away safely. Watching the HS gals in the class go from shock/startled from being grabbed or pinned down to confident bad asses was very impressive. RDT you are doing a tremendous service for our community of women!
