    My three-year-old is a very hyper active kid and had an amazing first class last week. Not just…read more that he had a great 1st time class, I had one of the most pleasant experience with the customer service they provide with; they follow up very well with any questions or concerns. I strongly recommend this organization for toldders.

    My daughter has been taking classes here at Pro Martial Arts for about 5 months now. I wanted to…read morewait to write a review because of two reasons. One I like to know if first impressions are accurate, and two there were some staff changes that turned out to be great changes! We love this school. We found this place because my daughters friend had a birthday party here. She loved it right away. My husband and I were not as sure that it would be a good fit for her because she takes after me and has horrible coordination. We were amazed at not only how patient all of the instructors were and still are with her but how much her coordination has not stopped her from trying to succeed at all the steps being taught. I believe that is only because the instructors never criticize, they are alway up beat and positive. The instructors are all awesome and really try to help all the kids learn how to do each move correctly but still make it a fun atmosphere. I love that there is an area that parents can sit and watch the class not all s schools offer this. I enjoy seeing what is being taught and how she is progressing. This waiting area sometimes is a little crowded, but for the most point everyone is nice and quiet so the class is not distracted. If the kids in class do get distracted the instructors quickly get their attention back where it should be without missing a beat. We are thrilled to be able to bring our daughter here and hope to continue for years to come.

    At the end of the summer, we did a trial with Eagle Academy and Master Jansa. Master Jansa took…read morethe time to understand why we were interested and to assess whether or not both of my children (3.5 years and 5 years) would be ready for martial arts instruction. He was very thorough and informative. I love the focus on discipline and respect, and how the Masters consider the carry-over and expectation to home as well (i.e. a student would be expected to demonstrate respect at home). Master Jansa held, in my opinion, appropriate expectations of my 5 year old son. My son was included in a few classes for trial purposes, and participated with other students. I loved LOVED everything about it... except the tuition, unfortunately. At this time, it is just completely out of my budget. I hope that we can do a few park district classes, and then hopefully try out Eagle Academy again when it's more financially feasible.

    I am a student at Eagle Academy. I love training with Master T and Master J. I like how we learn…read moreare forms and how they teach it, because we learn a little bit one day then the other parts the next time we come. I like all of the summer and winter actives we do. I love going to all of the tournaments that we do because we can meet new people from other schools and get to see demo teams preform. I like going to Eagle Academy because it is fun and you learn lots of stuff and earn different levels of belts. I think that you will love it at Eagle Academy. I do not think you will regret becoming a part of the eagle family.

    When I was a kid, I trained in Tae Kwon Do for a while and achieved a blue belt. Unfortunately life…read moregot in the way and I had to stop training. Eventually I got busy with college, career, marriage, parenting, etc. Fast forward many, many years... I'm an old man now. During the pandemic, I had plenty of time to reminisce about the past and re-live some of those things like playing board games and reading fiction. I also watched way too many martial arts movies, not to mention the Cobra Kai series. I was a big fan of Jean-Claude Van Damme movies as a kid. I got the itch to start training again, despite having knee pains and being well past my prime. I found PS Academy because I'm in this area often and happened to notice a Martial Arts sign in this plaza. I thought that was strange because I was only aware of automotive services here. I went home and looked it up on Google Maps, then reached out. I eventually signed up, but self-doubts kicked in soon after. I thought to myself that this is for kids and that this is just a mid-life crisis. I still remember my first class. I felt so out of place being a white belt among a class full of senior belts, and just about everyone was much younger than me. Thankfully no one has made me feel like an outcast, but I still sometimes feel like the "Stingray" character in Cobra Kai. In any case, I like that it's a no-frills training area, and the quality of instruction is great. In nearly every class I get a little feedback to incrementally improve. And despite my age I've been able to throw some kicks (not very high, mind you) and break some boards. Board-breaking is intoxicating. The program they have here is great for kids. If you'd like your kids to learn discipline and focus and develop as good people, PS Academy is worth a look. If you're an adult and looking to get in shape, learn some self-defense, or simply want to feel young again, PS Academy also has a place for you.

    I had always wanted to take martial arts/self defense as a kid, and 26 years later... never did it…read more I signed up, and I'm glad I did. So far it's only been one class, but I will update my review as things progress. So, I've met Grandmaster Hyong and Hyong Sah Beum Nim, and they are both incredibly nice, as is the instructor, Mr. Louise. When you sign up, they have you fill out a form stating what your physical and mental/other goals are - I want to get in better shape, but also gain some confidence about my abilities and myself in general. They have an adults only class, 16 and up, all belt ranges, and I was one of 6 or so new people last week that were white belts. While it felt intimidating to be an adult white belt with some teenage colored belts, they were kind, thoughtful, and energetic (showing me how to properly put on my dobok, or uniform, and being super supportive). I was surprised that a good number of the people I saw were female, and that made me feel way more comfortable - I wasn't the only girl by any stretch of the imagination. They did separate us newbies at times, and when it was everyone, they tried to stress that it wasn't a race and to take things at our own pace. I'm also able to be in the white belt class (all ages), so I'm excited for that as well. I also like that belt advancement is self-paced, so there's not a lot of pressure but still support for those interested and capable of progressing at a faster pace. They also offer courses for self-defense, but require that you have advanced beyond white belt to take it. I also liked that they have classes for 3 - 6 year-olds, they were absolutely adorable! The kids are learning structure and discipline (like making sure their shoes are always neatly put away), and I was impressed - I would definitely bring my kids here if I was a parent. In terms of parking - the lot is a little weird, but you can park in any open spaces after 5 pm without a problem.
