It's difficult to abbreviate all of the benefits my family and I have seen from our training at the…read moreAcademy of Okinawan Karate to less than a 500 page thesis, but I will do my best to summarize. I started my daughter with the school when she was 7 years old, uncoordinated and the farthest thing from physically inclined. Now, five years later, my daughter had poise, confidence, high self esteem, and had gained a lot of physical attributes including muscular arms and legs, balance, and coordination. Seeing my child succeeding and benefiting from her training gave me a strong desire to join her on her climb through the ranks. I signed up a year after she began, and saw the benefits immediately. Not only did I get a tremendous workout on a daily basis, but was constantly filled with pride in my own achievements throughout my training. Four years later I feel stronger, safer, more confident, more outspoken, more adaptable to change, more accepting of criticism, and more capable in all aspects of my life. Like my daughter I never thought of myself as physically inclined and was never into sports... karate is as much a sport to me as it is an art, a challenge and a lifestyle. I would not give up my training for anything. Thank you AOK for everything you've given myself and my family.

I researched several martial arts facilities in the area and when I happened to come across Brown's…read moreSchool of Martial Arts, I knew immediately this was the place to bring my 14 year old son. My son had never done any sort of martial arts before and was very nervous. I also had no idea about martial arts except for what I saw in movies and television. Ben is extremely knowledgeable and he immediately made me and my son feel comfortable and relaxed. To ensure this was meant for him, Ben let my son try the class for 2 weeks free. There wasn't a doubt in my mind after the 2 week trial that my son would continue to attend his school. My son can't wait to go to class and Ben is always patient with him. I would highly recommend giving Brown's School of Martial Arts a try if you are looking to take martial arts for yourself or for your child.
