I enrolled my son at PMA about 3 years ago. I signed up because I wanted him to gain confidence, discipline and also learn how to protect himself. After seeing the level of professionalism and instruction that PMA delivers, I decided I wanted to give Martial Arts a try for myself with their adult classes. I am a fitness professional and have always been interested in martial arts, and the class times fit in my schedule so I decided to give Krav Maga a try. It has been over a year now and I am so happy I decided to start. Both my son and I have gained so much from PMA. I feel he his more confident, more respectful and I know that he has tools to use if in the situation where he would have to protect himself. I feel I have also gained all of these wonderful skills as well. Lets face it, the world is unpredictable and having the knowledge and skills that you learn at PMA could save your life. Not only that, but its so fun!!! My son and I are both on a journey together now and we are both on the path to earning our black belt together. Participating in Martial Arts at PMA has increased our bond and we have something we are both working hard to get. I can not speak highly enough about our experience at PMA and the staff at PMA is TOP KNOTCH! Best place around. I wish I could rate PMA higher than 5 stars!! read more

I am the instructor he is talking about. It's funny how he believes JP is me. It's a disgrace that he would even call me out on a platform like this!! Just goes to show you how he runs his business... Let's clear things up. I never lied to anyone. He accused me of lying. Instead of sitting down man to man, he (Joe) texted me. Pretty much stating I was no longer welcome at Premier Martial Arts in Raynham. Made numerous false accusations about me and told his students lies about me. Took numerous stabs at me during his belt ceremonies. I quit working there because I was working my full-time job & working there 5 days a week. Most days, I was working 14 - 16 hour days. I was sick & exhausted most of the time. Still, I was pressured to work Fridays when our arrangement was Fridays & Sundays off. So I stepped down as an instructor. I wanted to remain a student there, but Joe had other things in mind. Called my wife to slander me & question my integrity. So now he wants to call me out publicly & play the victim. I have reached out to him via email & text, but there is still no response. This man is clearly threatening by me & by anyone who stands up for themselves & does not allow him to have some sort of control over them. Becareful & aware of all this when choosing this dojo. read more

When my son was kindergarten he was bullied by another child on his school bus. Not really knowing what to do, as trying to teach your 5 yr old child to fight back or defend himself is not an easy thing to do. My wife and I were not sure what to do. We came across Premier Martial Arts through an event they held at my son's school. After the event he received a pass to come and check out the school and have a free lesson. We could see he really enjoyed the event and my wife and I decided to take the opportunity to see the school and meet the instructors. It was the best decision we ever made! After two weeks my son stopped talking about the bully on the bus. We are proud to say that almost 2 years later he still loves going to class. We look forward to bringing him to class as well. My son has met a lot of great kids here and their parents are great people too. We are all very supportive of each others kids and their achievements. It really is one big family. The team at Premier Martial Arts are just awesome! Not only are they great teachers, they are genuinely great people as well. I could not think of ever sending my son anywhere else. read more

It has been a while since I attended my son's karate lessons since my husband usually takes him. I am very impressed with both Sensei Pulsone and Master Fischbach. They both command respect as they started their classes. During Sensei Pulsone's class, he was able to walk around to assist students with their moves to make sure they were using the proper technique. Some students needed redirection which he did with ease. He did have to remind students of his expectations of raising their hands instead of shouting out when they were discussing empathy, their month's theme. During Master Fischbach's class, he started the class but then let a higher ranking and older (black belt) student take over. It was great to see a student role model run the class for a bit. This gave Master Fischbach the opportunity to assist students in their moves so they could reach their full potential. These gentlemen are very professional at all times. You can tell that they love what they do by the way they interact with their students as the students are on a quest to be their best. read more

My son started karate when he was 6 years old. Signing him up for karate was one of the best parenting decisions I've ever made. Over the past six years, I have watched my son grow and develop in so many ways. In the early years of his training, he always had a hand up with a question. I recall how well the instructors handled him and how they never made him feel belittled or that he was an annoyance. I vividly remember how early on, my son would rush to the front of the warm-up line as line #s were called out. There were times he literally dove past another student just be at the front of the line. But here we are, six years later, and my son is now on the Leadership Team helping Little Champions to find their way. During warm-ups, he is typically found toward the back of the line clapping for and motivating his line mates. Throughout his time at PMA, my son has grown and matured from a little boy into a respectful, kind and compassionate young man. He can be his true self at PMA and he feels confident and secure. What more could a parent ask for? read more

We currently have 3 children enrolled in this school. Our oldest is a 1st degree black belt, this school has helped him gain more confidence, has helped him in situations where he was able to defend himself against bullies and it has also help mold him into the respectable young teen he is today. Our younger son is a red belt and he has become more focused, confident, and he has recently tried out for the schools Demo team and made the team. It gets the kids up and active, they make such great friendships, and they have AMAZING role models to look up to! They are all understanding and it is a family like atmosphere. Our youngest is a white belt and she just recently started. She is in the little champs class and She absolutely loves it!! Sensei Johnny and Master Fischbach do wonderful with all the students they are patient, kind, and are always there to listen to a concern, or have a chat with your child if they are just having an off day. I highly recommend Premier Martials Arts in Raynham! read more

Ever since the beginning of 2020, I have wanted to sign up for a self-defense class. My dad signed me up for PMA and told mom that it was the basics. My mom wanted me to go to advanced classes. I was next signed up for a class that was 5 miles away from home and the class was at 6:30-7:00 so mom did not bring me. On Tuesday January 12th 2021, dad, grandpa, and grandma told me about the surprise about how I was going to PMA and I had a GREAT time. Ever since that day, I have loved going to PMA and I NEVER miss my class and I'm also NEVER late. I am still a white belt, but I'm working my way up, I am very grateful for PMA existing because if PMA did not exist then I would not be at PMA at all. Thank you for reading my comment and NO it is not fake. Thanks -Maya PMA Sensei Rich's class. read more

My daughter started here 6 years ago and got her black belt a couple of years ago just before she turned 10. The lessons taught for perseverance, indomitable spirit, leadership skills etc are lessons not just on the dojo floor but can relate to life outside the dojo and carried on for years. As part of community service, they have classes for women's self defense, active shooter workshops, kids anti bullying workshops open to public from time to time. Thanks to the family atmosphere created there, my daughter practically considers it her second home and a safe haven. Congrats to Master Fischbach and Sensei Ally for running an uplifting organization. . My daughter and the instructors have inspired me to become a martial Arts student myself! Come join us!! read more

I started at Premier Martial Arts when I attended a Women's Self Defense class. I could tell from that first moment how friendly and supportive the environment was. I started taking classes with them the next week, and recently started their Adult Black Belt Training program. My first impression was correct, the staff and other members have been nothing but supportive, kind, friendly and you can feel the family environment they intend for everyone. I never would have thought I could do this, but the staff and team members help you see that you can and encourage you as you go. I encourage anyone who thinks as an adult you can't do this to try out Premier Martial Arts cause I am so very glad I have! read more

Premier Martial Arts in Raynham is a fantastic dojo. My entire family trains at PMA, Raynham. It is a clean and safe environment where you and your kids can learn to protect yourselves and be part of a wonderful, warm family. The instructors are very knowledgeable, kind and motivating. They take the time to get to know you and your kids. Not only will your kids learn a new skill, but will also gain self confidence, respect for themselves and others. The kids actually get "homework" that teaches good family values to complete before they can belt test. I could go on and on, but you need to check it out. Don't hesitate to try it out. You won't regret it. read more

The staff at PMA in Raynham is fantastic. Master Joe Fischbach is caring, supportive, and encouraging. Sensei Johnny is an enthusiastic young man who cares about his students and their learning. Brandy offers free Women's self-defense seminars and also teaches cross fit. She empowers women to be brave and strong. Miss Nicole is always there to help you and support you. The PMA staff and students are truly a family. Each week they support each other, encourage each other, help each other, and enjoy laughter. If I could, I would've given them 10 stars. I highly recommend them for anyone in search of fitness and discipline karate will bring. read more

Our youngest (now 10.5 years old), is to complete phase 3 testing for her 1st degree black belt March 31st. Since then, my husband, our oldest (almost 15 y.o) and myself have ALL started black belt training! We love the positive community, the professional, courteous and helpful staff and the both the challenge of the classes and the knowledge that we are learning some very important life skills, God forbid we ever have to use them! Joining Premier Martial Arts is one of the best decisions I have ever made--the higher belts are so helpful and I always leave with such a feeling of accomplishment, knowing I am bettering myself consistently. read more

My son joined PMA 5 years ago, starting off in their Little Champs class. Now, at 10 years old, he's a 1st degree black belt. It's been amazing to watch him grow and thrive in martial arts. He is now in the Leadership program and also part of their Demo and Competition teams. The staff and students are like a family and the dojo has become like our second home. The dojo also offers Crosskick (cross training and kickboxing) classes at the same time my son attends his classes. As a parent who struggles to find my own time to be active, this has been life changing. Anyone interested in martial arts, I 100% recommend PMA in Raynham. read more

I have been interested in the martial arts since I was young and finally took the Free Women's Defense workshop ( in 2019) at Premier Martial Arts in Raynham. This workshop was so inspiring (especially the instructor Brandy) that I signed up for their Krav Maga program. Fast forward 4 years later and I have recently earned my 1st Degree Black Belt and have found a wonderful Family in my fellow students and Instructors. I totally recommend Premier Martial Arts in Raynham run by Master Joe Fischbach and Sensei Brandy Fischbach as a great school to send your children or for the adult student. Thank you read more

My son is a student at PMA and this is his second time around doing martial arts. He loves it here. The instructor is amazing! He works diligently to create an environment that is condusive to learning, fun, challenging, and group oriented. Sensae also works with his students individually to ensure student progress. This is a family oriented place where the owners are involved every step of the way. We are always greeted with a warm welcome by everyone, including the parents. I would recommend PMA to anyone. read more

My son and I have taken classes here for many years. He started out in the kids class and grew into the adult class, once that started I joined as well. Having this experience with my son has been amazing. We live in a crazy world where people want to be safe but don't consider enough what to do in situations when they can go bad. I really appreciate the training we've received here and think it has been very beneficial. We're very pleased with our experience. read more
