Obviously, I can not…read morespeak about the instruction in the Tae Kwon Do classes, as she is not old enough for them yet- but if they are anything like the instruction they provide towards younger children, I'm sure they are excellent classes. For anyone with younger children, I would DEFINITELY check out their open gym time to get a feel for the place. The facility is extremely clean and well-run, the equipment is in excellent condition, and I am conststantly impressed with how professional, creative, and genuinely happy to be there the instructors are- from Master Chung himself down, they all seem to LOVE teaching skills to children. (And not in a cheesy way!) I would definitely recommend the sports skills class to anyone with a child in the 2.5-5 year range. My niece is learning so much and becoming so much more confident in her abilities. Unlike other similar classes I've observed at other locations, Bruce Chung's makes sure that all the children in the class are engaged, with minimal time just sitting around waiting their turn. VERY pleased with this class!

This is a small, non competitive school, with various instructors, all incredibly proficient and caring. The intro trial, 5 classes for $50 is by far the best way to see if KOMAA is the right place to learn and train. As I said, I study both Yang and Chen Tai Chi as a senior man, but there are classes for kids and adults in other martial arts. I have not participated in these, but I have observed, and the philosophy is constant; learn in a safe, caring and non judgmental environment and improve you life. As far as my Tai Chi journey, all I can say is to quote Lou Reed: "Tai Chi puts you in touch with the invisible power of -yes- the universe. Change your energy, change your mind." If that resonates with you, then KOMAA is the place to learn and grow.

While focusing primarily on Kung Fu and Tai Chi, this Academy will serve as the foundation of the first American Asian Mixed Martial Arts Academy. The Academy located in Mamaroneck New York, a short distance from Connecticut, White Plains and Manhattan, will serve Westchester County, Fairfield County and Bronx, NY.

Carlos is an incredible coach with extensive experience fighting and coaching fighters and students…read moreof all levels. I have learned so much from studying under him. No matter what level you start at with Carlos, he makes you feel like you belong and helps you see your potential to become even better. Everybody at the gym is really positive and friendly. It's a beautiful training space too.

I am a woman that has trained under Carlos for about 6 years. I love his gym and the way he trains…read morehis students. He is a talented coach that puts his all into his fighters. I have NEVER felt disrespected as a woman in his gym, I was always treated as an equal. I think what he is trying to do for men's mental health is a must needed. The reason he does not want to coach women fighters is NOT because he is a "misogynist pig", the reason he has chosen not to train female fighters is because the strain that a human body is put under when preparing for a fight is very harsh. The process can affect our ability to carry a child in the future, it effects our periods and the constant hits to our bodies can affect our bones in a very negative way which we would especially feel after going through menopause. Women now days do have a lot of different "outlets", whereas men do not have as many "outlet" opportunities and definitely need them (just look at men's mental health). He has stated in many of his videos that he hates how in other gyms, women have been used solely as a "sale" for the gym by using photos of hot women, instead of just focusing on the fighters (be men or women). Carlos has the kindest sole for humans and has often trained people for free if they have not been able to pay. He has helped countless amounts of men from killing themselves by being there for them. He has given fighters an opportunity to fight and grow. He has done so much for the Muay thai community and has a gift for teaching it. His wording in his videos may be misleading of what he is trying to say and English is not his first language, but if you actually sit down with him and talk to him you may actually understand what he is really trying to say.

Swore I'd never try Crossfit but then Crossfit Harrison opened literally a 2 min walk away from me…read moreand they had a Groupon deal so my curiosity got the best of me. Classes are offered primarily in the late afternoon/evening with a couple on M & W at 6AM thrown in there to satisfy the early risers. Owner is friendly but tough in a good way - he knows the fine line between when you are struggling and need a lighter weight to do the move properly and when you are just being lazy. WoD's have been challenging but doable - the two Ive done so far have been 20 and 30 min each so between that and a warm up/cool down you get in your hour of exercise. I have never been as sore as I was after my first class and can already tell after todays class I am in for another round of soreness. I don't mind too much and I know I'm getting a good workout. People have been friendly and I felt welcome right away. There are modifications (ring rows instead of pull ups, sit ups instead of toe to bars etc) for newbies/beginners so you are always able to participate. Our WoD today had a group challenge for the last round and despite my best round my team lost and our punishment was 20 burpees for each rep we lost by - or 44 burpees for the 5 of us since we lost by 11 reps to equal 220 burpees total. Love the team atmosphere and ability to track your progress and see improvement. Now, here is where I am torn, like most Crossfit gyms is not cheap. There is definitely value in the small group training atmosphere and coach's attention though. It's $180/mo unlimited or $130/mo for 2x week classes. I could see myself doing the foundation program and getting a 10 class pass or something if they had that to go once every week or two and then just doing my own 'work in the Equinox studio when there were no classes going on.

I would highly recommend Crossfit Harrison for several reasons…read more 1) The other members come to work out hard day in and day out. This is highly motivating and is a stark contrast to other gyms in the neighborhood. 2) Will is a great trainer who balances patience and impatience very well. He will patiently take the time to correct your posture and technique when you need the help. But, if you are simply slacking he will call you out on it and you will feel like crap and try not to be a slacker ever again. 3) There is a great teamwork vibe. When I first joined the gym I knew that there was no way I would ever climb the rope, but everybody in the gym gave me pointers each time I tried. When I climbed it for the first time I felt a lot of love from the other members, even though I didn't know any of them 3 months ago 4) Crossfit Harrison is the equivalent of personal training every time you work out. I used to pay $120 an hour for personal training at equinox and now I feel the same attention every night I workout. Considering I train 5 days a week, this would have cost me thousands of dollars had I stayed at equinox. 5) Crossfit workouts are "quick". If I need to get in and out quick Will tailors my workout appropriately so that I can train for anywhere from 20 min to 1 hour. Since I work for an investment bank and have to commute to NYC every day, this is really important to me. 6) While the workouts are very challenging, they are also fun since they are never the same. Since you don't know what you are doing till you get there, it is never boring.
