The staff at Phoenix Martial Arts - Anthem treat everyone like family and always motivate us to do our best. The kids' program builds not only martial arts skills but also life lessons like respect, discipline, and confidence. I've seen my granddaughter grow so much here. The adult classes have been just as rewarding for me--challenging, fun, and a great way to stay active while learning practical self-defense. This school is more than a place to train--it's a supportive community that helps kids and adults reach their potential. Highly recommend!

Master & Mrs. Jonas and all of the instructors are VERY knowledgeable. The instructors provide so much structure and discipline, and takes martial arts seriously. They set high expectations for themselves as well as their students; at the same time they model grace, patience and integrity. It's apparent martial arts is their passion and calling. They do this because it's what they love. We couldn't ask for a better experience! We HIGHLY recommend PHX Martial Arts.

What I've really loved is the appropriate level of discipline and self control they are asserting on the kids. I love the 'yes sir, no sir', and they know my kid well enough now to know when she's faking a potty break and when it's really an issue. They never let the kiddos accept anything other than their best shot. They do especially well with new kids and usually assign one teacher to a new kid -- there can be a lot of tears as for some little guys, this is their first activity out of the safety of their home. It does seem pricey to me at $130/month (the pricing can be lower if you lock into a time commitment -- we go month to month) but you can attend as many classes as you would like at this price. So you can really make it worth your money. And if karate is something your child wants to commit to, it's a total bargain.

I signed up my four kids in February '25, but unfortunately, my 13 year old son suffered a serious injury in March '25 and was hospitalized at Phoenix Children's Hospital for 17 days. His recovery required months of physical therapy and follow-up appointments, and he wasn't medically cleared until October '25. Because of this, I reached out to Matt Numrich and his wife Stephanie right away to request cancellation, knowing we wouldn't be able to participate for a long time. I was told that wasn't an option due to the contract, and we were still required to pay $596 per month regardless of attendance. During this already difficult time, payments that didn't go through immediately were met with repeated texts and emails about declined charges. There was no willingness to pause, adjust, or show any flexibility despite our situation. We fulfilled the full one-year contract but did not step foot back in the dojo after March '25. They received every payment, yet showed no compassion or consideration during a very challenging season for our family. Based on our experience, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. The approach here feels more focused on money than on supporting their students. If I could give them a ZERO, I would!!!!! They don't deserve the 1 star!!!

The school has very supportive family style and atmosphere, where everyone feels welcomed and fully supported with knowledgeable Sifu Michael and Simu Tamara. I am so happy that my family and i are part of it for the last 4 years now, where we met some great people and made a lot of friends who became like family! All the instructors i have met there are kind and happy to help regardless of your level. Whether you are a total beginner or an experienced martial artist the community led by Sifu Michael and Simu Tamara is exceptionally welcoming and focused on personal growth rather then ego. They are also known for their Lion Dance team and very active participation in local charitable work, encouraging students to give back to community, and stay connected.

They really do a great job helping each student progress no matter how much or how little experience they have. They recognize their students potential and help them work to achieve it so they can be proud of themselves. Since I have never done martial arts before I didn't know how any of it worked but when I have questions the staff are more than willing to explain things to me. I highly recommend this business for kids and adults!
