That alone will Give it 3 stars. At $75 a month for 2 classes a week, seems pretty reasonable to me. Instructors do not talk down to these young kids, which I like. They seem to hold the kids attention and keep them going the whole hour. I was tired just watching them. They ended with a game to cool the kids down, which they all enjoyed. Price is right, instructors seemed good. Just wish it were cleaner and a bit nicer.

My kids have been coming here for almost a year now and I will say that I'm impressed with the…read morequality of training they've received so far. We've tried other programs throughout the area and we're not happy so we were hesitant to come here. However, over the last year we've witnessed our boys become more confident and skilled in self defense! They offer women only classes, adult classes, young kid classes and slightly older kid classes! So really, this place is all ages!

I was astounded to find zero reviews for Inner Strengths. Both my boys now 7 and 13 have been…read moreattending Jiu-Jitsu classes here for about a year. The instructors are patient and kind. They work very hard to teach the kids respect, discipline and technique while helping build their self esteem. Previously both of my children had taken karate classes at the YMCA and while they enjoyed it, didn't learn very much. The children's classes are taught Sensei Candace, Coach Robin and Coach Victor, Candace's son Sensei Jacob, as well as a few others but I don't remember all the names. Classes are Co-Ed and ages range from 3-13. Typically younger, smaller children are paired up for grappling. Kids classes are held Monday's and Wednesday's 5:00-6:00 and Saturdays 10:00-11:00 am. My younger and older son participates in this class but my older one participates in the adult class as well. The adult classes are held Mon and Wed 6:15-8:15, Thurs 6:00-8:00, Friday 7:00-9:00pm and Saturday 11:30-1:00pm. Women's only self defense classes, anti-bullying classes, and stress management seminars are offered as well. Coach Robin is a licensed massage therapist and offers shiatsu massage, deep tissue, Thai, reflexology and Swedish massage. Sensei Candace is also a Reiki Master and does sessions by appointment only. She has really great positive energy. They also offer children's birthday parties. Prices are very reasonable and you can attend as many classes as you would like. My oldest sometimes goes as much as 5 times a week. He has grown very much in only a year here and is currently preparing to compete in the Naga Tournament in May.

It's easy to miss this place. Sadly it doesn't come up on Google. I was referred here by a Mom…read morewhile my youngest was attending boxing classes, otherwise I would probably never found out what a gem it is. Sensei Candace is one of the kindest people I've ever met. The patience she demonstrates with these kids is amazing. Her calm energy seems to keep them focused and on track. She has a way that makes them want to make her proud of them. She's everyone's ninja mother, lol. Both my kids take classes here. My oldest takes adult and kid classes. They work on strength training, grappling and moves. At first I wasn't sure he was ready for the adult class but Sensei Candace reassured me that he would do great. He has a background in wrestling and is able to use his grappling skills acquired from that. He's learned a lot from the adults and has a lot of respect for them. He struggles with ADHD and this has really helped him with self control and focus. Her prices are extremely reasonable considering how many people she has on staff and how frequently you can attend classes. It's a great jiu jitsu school for adults and children.

Small class sizes means individualized attention in a friendly and cooperative atmosphere. Everyone here wants to help you get better. The Krav Maga program is very effective for defense against weapons, unarmed attackers and multiple attackers. It will definitely help you feel more street safe. The San Shou program is a very versital striking and wrestling program that will also develop your fitness. Both programs compliment each other well and many students at the school train in both. If you are looking for a school to start or continue your martial arts journey, this is the place. See you on the mat!

As usual, locked into a deal to check this place out. Very conveniently located to my residence…read more Owner Christine Bannon-Rodrigues is quite unassuming considering she is, I found out, 8th degree black belt and holds 9 World Championships (ahem). I really had fun going to the Kickboxing fitness classes here. Each participant typically gets a bag to him/herself. The routines are authentic -- a combination of sparring and bag kicks and punches. Music was cool, too. We all worked out on mats so I really felt the shin and top of foot kicks. The staff is polite and the crowd is made up of parents with kids taking up Karate, if not Karate and Kickboxing enthusiasts. It was especially great support training for the choreographed kickboxing classes I teach myself. I really wanted to stay on as a regular member but the rates were prohibitive. Around $80 a month for unlimited attendance to kickboxing classes, on auto debit. Other than attending classes, if they synced with my own schedule (which mostly did not), there is no other option for me to make use of that fee. I asked for a special arrangement that would somehow make sense -- drop in, perhaps? Cost is just a bit high. If you come in as a family, perhaps, or wish to stick to only one fitness routine and this being it, this is a very good place. Then the rate might make sense to you. Check it out.

What I've noticed which is most important: EVERY kid is welcome regardless of their athletic ability, and every kid receives an equal amount of attention. There are no "favorites" here... Josh (the owner) and his instructors spend time helping every student use their own strengths to conquer each obstacle, and they also ensure that everyone in the class stays focused. No kid leaves this class feeling like they were left out. Class sizes are reasonable (usually around 10-12 students, less in the summer), and they set up new obstacles frequently so there's very little repetition. My review is based only on AMP's Ninja Kids class, but they've got an assortment of other classes as well; Parkour, Capoeira, etc. The first class is always free... even if it wasn't, AMP Academy would still be worth checking out.

The instructors are firm but kind and push the kids to be not only better "mini ninjas" but better humans as well. Each week is a different challenge. They have to be respectful, listen, help others, wait their turn, cheer others on, and say something they learned at the end of class. They then get 10 minutes of free gym at the end.
