He seems like a chill guy who has a solid connection with his real students. Mats had a few dust bunnies and hairballs but were fairly clean besides that.

If you can get past that I think you'll have find a good home at this place. Prices seemed fair for what you got. Solid gym.

If you come here thinking you're the shit, and you really can't compete at the level you think you can, you're going to get decimated. No one is going to feel bad about crushing you when you walk around thinking you're the shit. You come here to train and get better, not to have people fawn over how cool you are with your lame credentials.

With even challenging behavior from young ones, he knows what to say to get them on track quickly, it is amazing to watch him and his family (his children are following in his footsteps, and amazing also). This is a true family martial arts studio, and like a family diner, you get the product straight from the source, not from some corporate board or national group. It is the way martial arts should be taught! If you want your kiddos to get a good sense of discipline, commitment, and the rewards that come from hard work, or if mom and dad want a great workout with some of the areas most friendly martial artists, go now! My only complaint is that I did not get my kids in earlier, the Mathis' have been an inspiration to them! Our family is honored to train at Mathis Martial Arts!

He attends class 3-5 times a week and has flourished under the instructors there...well flourished would be an understatement! Under their guidance he has competed in two Karate Circuits, the International Karate Circuit and the All Star Karate League. Currently he is a 5 time Regional Champion in the IKC, and a 5 time National Champion in the ASKL. The school only started a competition this year, so I can say without a doubt this is the place to be for top level Martial Arts Instructions. They have the biggest named professionals in the sport at the school on a pretty regular basis performing clinics for the students. If you are looking for a serious school with knowledgeable instructors this is the place to be!
