I've been training at Quest for over a dozen years, and what started as "this looks fun" has turned into one of the most empowering parts of my life. The classes are an amazing workout, they've given me real self-defense skills, and they've helped me build confidence. And now that I'm a mother of two, I really appreciate the chance to spend time with other adults! Mr. Edwards has a genuine gift for working with young kids--patient, energetic, and somehow magically able to keep a whole room on track. And Mr. Seah's classes are structured, engaging, and always a blast! Quest is so amazing, that we recently enrolled our eldest daughter In less that a year, she has become more confident, coordinated, and focused. She even brings the respect and discipline home. Hearing a tiny "Yes ma'am!" at bedtime is adorable Quest has become a second home for our family. read more

Quest Martial Arts - Martial Arts Near Me - Reseda, California

My son has been training at Quest since he was 5 years old (he's now 8). I've been around many coaches and teachers. I can safely say that I've never come across more knowledgeable, professional, caring, humorous, and effective instructors than the ones we've met at Quest. They truly strive to not only teach martial arts to the kids that walk through their doors, but ensure the same kids leave as confident, responsible, and empathetic people. My son especially loves Mr. Spencer and Mr. Nunn. If you've ever considered martial arts for your child, or are just looking for an extracurricular activity, I strongly recommend Quest. read more

Updated Review: I now have two kids at Quest, one son has now earned his second degree black belt, has participated in their leadership program, and has grown into an amazing teenager I couldn't be more proud of.

He's having so much fun and learning valuable life lessons along the way. read more

It has been an amazing ride here at Quest Martial Arts. My daughter has been doing this she was 5 years old. It's so fantastic to see her personal growth by building confidence, seeing her determination, focus, and respect for others. She is now 1st Dan black belt six years later and still going strong. My daughter always looked forward to each class and tournament. She especially loves weapons. I highly recommend quest Martial Arts. All the instructors have been so amazing. Shout out to all the instructors: Master Lawrence, Master Gunther, Master Moreno, Mr. Nunn, Mr, Edwards, and last but not least a special shout out to our own Mr. Spencer who has been with her from the beginning. Now my 7 year old son is interested in joining. If you are looking for a place that will bring positive change Quest is the place. read more

Last year I threw my son a bday party at Quest. It went so well, this year I decided to do it all over again for my daughter. It was such an incredible experience both times. I've thrown many birthday parties for my kids over the years but this one by far was the best and most important, hassle free. I quite literally did nothing but show up with a cake. The quest team handled everything from set up to pizza to goodie bags to clean up. And the kids had such a blast on the mat playing dodge ball and other fun games. If you're looking for an affordable fun birthday for your child I recommend quest martial arts birthday package. It really was an awesome experience. Might do it again next year read more

Quest Martial Arts is great not only for training physically but also for building focus & confidence skills for your little one. My son had started at Quest when he was 4 years old & has been there for 2 years now. He went from a shy to a more focus, confident young man! All the instructors here are great & interact with the students & families very well. Ms. Moreno is one of the best instructors, who's always engaging with her students & makes the class fun for them! read more

We started during COVID and now 5 years in I can say this team of Karate instructors are the best in the Valley they are the best that has ever happened to our family! Our daughter respects and admires her instructors. They have motivated her and is coming so close to her black belt. They truly care and we are considering enrolling our 3 year old in the coming year!! We love that not only are they dedicated to teaching martial arts but they instill values during the class lessons and I love the activities done outside the dojo, they have trunk or treat , potlocks at the park , games in the dojo, mother and Father's Day activities with the kids , boot camp to help prepare for upcoming tests , and date night for parents , they will watch them so parents can have a night off for a few hours and they get to play games and eat pizza. the best is the humor that comes from some teachers while teaching the kids enjoy it. They truly are the best to see ! We love this dojo and tell them that we sent you!!! You're in good hands ! read more

Through Quest Martial Arts, he's not only developing valuable life skills but also learning the importance of respect, responsibility, and commitment.

I started here about two months ago and now my daughter has joined as well. I have been invovled in Martial Arts for 20 years and needed a new place to train. Myself and my daughter were at a different school for a while but it wasnt a good fit for us. I tried out Quest and fell in love with it. It reminded me of when I started this journey so many years ago. All of the instructors are great, there is no ego, and everyone is truly here to learn. I also really appreciate the value they place on listening and being respectful at home during the kids classes. I am so happy that I found Quest and I would highly recommend coming in to try it out for yourself or your children! read more

Our son has been at Quest for just over 6 months. He started out as a lil' dragon and has been promoted to the next level. We started martial arts to improve his self esteem and confidence. He won first place in his very first martial arts obstacle competition! This program has made such a positive impact. The instructors are great- a special acknowledgement to Mr. Seah who is absolutely incredible with ALL the kids! read more

Quest Martial Arts - 1st place in the Lil' Dragon Obstacle Competition - Martial Arts Near Me - Reseda, California

I have two kids attending Quest - one in Beginners, the other in Lil Dragons. After their first trial lessons, each kid agreed to commit to at least a year. And they look forward to going to their classes twice a week! The staff is top notch. They are all so engaged and enthusiastic with the kids while also commanding respect. They are all approachable, friendly, and patient. Goals are clearly set with tangible timelines and reasonable expectations for each kid. Classes are always a mix of fun and business, which keeps the kids fully engaged the whole time. Each month centers around a different quality or life skill that I've noticed my kids leaning into outside of the studio. The objective for our youngest was to give him a physical outlet that would also teach him respect and discipline. He's 4 so he still has his moments, but his behavior and general demeanor has improved immensely in just 6 months. The teachers have managed to instill this sense of confidence that has led to him wanting to be a leader - it's fascinating. The objective for our oldest was to help improve her focus and her balance. She has a diagnosed developmental coordination delay which causes major challenges in these areas and has lowered her self esteem. Upon telling her teachers this, they agreed that extra attention would be paid to these needs, while also not letting her use her condition as an excuse. And they have absolutely delivered on that promise! Her balance, attention and confidence are at an all time high. We've seen such positive developments in our kids, and have been so happy with this place, to the point that their dad has even joined the studio! Like most kids' activities, it does require an investment of time and money, but in my opinion, it's been worth every penny! read more

I signed my daughter up for karate in Sept 2022. I really wanted to get her more kid interaction, exercise and help gain confidence after spending so much time alone in the house during covid. The training schedule is super flexible and they provide a variety of times for trainings for each group. We love the instructors at the Reseda location, they are very supportive and encouraging. I already see a huge difference in my daughter's strength, confidence, attitude, and understanding of responsibility. Thank you, Reseda Quest martial arts! read more

Quest martial arts is by far the best place for my kids. The instructors are super professional, give each kid their full attention, they know every kids (and parent) name and they make us feel like one big family! Beyond teaching all types of martial arts, they teach the kids respect, discipline and kindness. As a parent, which has her 3 kids in different age group classes, I truly enjoy spending my time there watching the groups practice, learning new skills and getting to work with the best team ever! my kids are happy to go there every single time. Mr. Spencer, Mr. Seah, Mr. Gunther and the rest of the staff are truly amazing. Highly recommended! read more

We have been with the Quest Martial Arts )QMA) team for a little more than 2 years. We started right when the pandemic hit. My son and I train at the Reseda location. He started as a 'Dragon', and is now in their Basic Training program; I am in the Masters Club Program (in intermediate ranks) with the ultimate goal of a Black Belt in mind. The instructors are excellent; not only are they well-versed with the curriculum that needs to be taught, along with the technicalities that go with this form of Korean Tang So Doo, but they are also kind, gracious and truly caring of their students. Each instructor knows every student and parents' names, and they make the time to go beyond the normal pleasantries. The full curriculum at QMA consists of Kickboxing, Korean Tang So Doo (specifically kicks based), self-defense techniques incorporated from Krav Maga and a sprinkle of grappling from Brazilian Jiujitsu. I personally love the amalgamation of the various types of martial arts that is available to the student. The instructors are extremely qualified in their personal area of expertise and together as a team, present an excellent collage of mixed martial artists. From a counselling perspective, they are very open to meeting with both students and parents for a future outlook of their journey in martial arts and how that can be mapped out over the years. This is very helpful to students who need a bird's eye view of the program and that are goal-oriented. During the pandemic, they handled their classes (online and soon after outdoors) as well all the one thousand and more protocols as well as the communication that went with it in an outstanding manner! I personally did not see the way it was done here anywhere else. Really great work and many sacrifices I'm sure, on the part of the instructors and management. All in all, QMA is THE place to be if you love the martial arts and desire a welcoming, inclusive environment with a 'warm embrace' no matter your background. The instructors and management clearly take pride in what they have built/achieved at QMA over the past years and appear to continuously strive for excellence in not only teaching the material but also demonstrating a mastery and passion of their skills/expertise to their students and as an extension, the community at large. read more

Bedt school ever. My son loves going to class and looks forward to it. The teachers make it a fun experience

This is an amazing place with the nicest and most professional staffI started as a white belt at 55 years old with my 10 years old son and my 16 years old son. We all got our Black Belts after 5 years of a lot of dedication and hard work! The amazing staff deserve a lot of credit! I couldn't do it without them I highly recommend Quest to everybody Go and try, it's worth it. read more

My son has been a student at Quest for about a year and a half. There are no words to express my gratitude to each of the instructors for everything they have done to support my son and me as a parent. They are such amazing role models and have so much patience and compassion. My son has grown tremendously in his self confidence and physical abilities. He loves going to class and adores all of the instructors (as do I!). I highly recommend this studio. You will not be disappointed. read more

Quest speaks Kiddos. Our son struggles with ADHD and reeeeaaaally has a hard time staying engaged with almost anything. From the first minute we walked in the door of Quest Martial Arts, Master Gunther had Holden hooked. (See the difference between the first and second picture- that was within 30 seconds of being there) The fun, fast-paced atmosphere is a GREAT place for kids to learn and play. It's fantastic to see our son be proud and take ownership of his self-discipline. And Quest makes sure their students take what they learn and apply it at home and school. I no longer have to remind him to put on his seatbelt everytime we get into the car, that's his thing now and he takes pride in it. I honestly can't recommend Quest enough. It's worth every penny and then some. We're so grateful to be part of this community. read more

My sons and I have been training at Quest Martial Arts Reseda since 2019 and we love it here. From the Little Dragons program to Black Belt classes and every level in between, we are constantly impressed with this training community. Training is carefully tailored to meet the developmental needs (physical, mental, emotional) of the students at each level. Not only do the instructors know the names of every student, but those of their caregivers & siblings. There's a community and sense of family when you walk in the door. read more

Quest Martial Arts - JT cracked that board in half. - Martial Arts Near Me - Reseda, California

We just had an introductory class for my 4 1/2 year old. The session was amazing. The teacher took their time to really work with my son to build his self-esteem, focus and self-discipline. And my son loved it. So what's wrong, right? Sounds like a great place...except immediately after the class they put us in a used car pressure box sales scenario with my son in the room and tried to get us to sign a $2400 (less if you pay up front) one year commitment to a two 1/2 hour class a week program. Complete bait and switch predatory business practice. They claimed that they have no month to month programs even though it's clearly stated on their website. read more

My daughter has had the best experience at Quest Martial Arts! I love the staff here, they always make you feel welcome and are so kind to everyone. My daughter started here when she was 5 years old and struggling with her behavior at home. She was hesitant to participate at first but everyone at Quest was so reassuring and patient with her (and me). She has grown so much in her time here and is now in the next level after being super motivated by their constant goals and encouragement. 10/10 would recommend!! Love it here! read more
