I did Tang Soo Do for…read morenearly 8 years before going off to college and I have always participated in high intensity sports, so I figured I could keep up. Much to my surprise, I broke a sweat, felt every muscle ache, and found a renewed passion for martial arts. The teachers here come directly from China and are super highly skilled in Chinese martial arts, like straight out of a movie status. In my short year and a half with the school, I have learned Shaolin style, contemporary wushu, weapons, and now Baji. I also decided to learn tai chi which I also underestimated how much of an internal workout it is and challenging to say the least. I have felt more in shape now than any other post college time, and lost about 20 lbs. since joining. Wish I would've join sooner! The youth follow a belt system, the adults have it too and are encouraged to test but it is not mandatory like other martial arts practices. In this sense I feel it's a great way for children to develop the discipline, focus and physical ability while adults focus on self-improvement without the pressure of testing. We are busy adults but we invest the time we want to better our own abilities and I feel that is the Martial way. There are far more great things to say about this school and Master Bao than can be written in a yelp review. They offer a free trial class of wushu, tai chi, etc., so why not give it a shot.

I've been taking Kung fu and Tai chi from here for several months now. Both instructors and…read morestudents are very friendly and welcoming. I didn't feel intimidated going there as a beginner.

I listed three goals in that interview, and within a year of training with this school, I am confident in saying that I have met all three. If you want to learn a sport, there are great benefits to that, but that isn't what everyone is looking for. If you want to train in how to defend yourself from true violence or survive a real world emergency situation, I would stop into the dojo and talk to any of the instructors there at the time. This school can teach you the essence of what a martial art is, modern personal protection, traditional weapons and firearms, as well as other trainings offered through various seminars.

What they have established is truly exceptional! As an early childhood educator with over 17 years of professional experience, I highly recommend Classical Martial Arts. Children need good foundations to thrive. In my observation of the children's classes, not only are students getting the physical activity they need (and also often lacking in today's digital age), they are also learning in every area of development. Socially, they are learning respect and compassion for peers and how to work with others to accomplish goals. Emotionally, they are learning self respect, discipline, confidence, positive coping strategies, and the value of hard work and determination. Sensei Gaddis charismatically adds examples and anecdotes to help children make the connection between the lessons and principles of martial arts and relevant situations in their daily lives. For myself, I was very nervous if I could do this. As an adult, learning something new can be intimidating, and I have my share of personal obstacles. But the positive, supportive atmosphere of the class gives a confidence boost to determination in facing obstacles and overcoming them. I have always been an advocate of positive coping strategies. I believe people should always seek to learn and to improve themselves. The benefits of martial arts training for adults are numerous, and again, those benefits are greatly enhanced by the teaching style and distinct atmosphere established at Classical Martial Arts. Go discover your potential!

Her training has not only helped her on the mat but has helped in every aspect of her life. It has taughter her respect, discipline and self esteem. All the teachers at her school (even ones she does not have), friends parents and the parents at No Limits are amazed at how she carries herself and was a leader and friend she is. She has made life long friends at No Limits and ATA tournaments. While some have chosen to move on (found other passions) she continues her friendships with them. I could not imagine what the last 7 years would have been like without our No Limits family. Please if you are considering signing your child up or even yourself for martial arts look no further than No Limits. We will welcome you into this amazing family. My daughter was excited from the moment she met Master Nominee Tavani-Candela. From her very first class she has shown amazing improvements in both her focus and confidence. The instructors are amazing with the kids...pushing them to achieve their best. My daughter has come so far in the last 3 months and I can't wait to see where she goes with the amazing instruction she is given. I can't recommend No Limits enough. Love it here!!!

His skill, patience, and dedication to his students are unmatched. I hold him in the highest regard and deeply regret not being able to continue my training with him. Sifu Daniels is truly a master of his craft. I remember Sifu telling my class that we should not brag about our practice and if he ever heard that we were bragging (think Johnny Lawrence in the karate Kid 1) that he would take away our rights to wear of Fire Dragon School T-shirts. He would tell us to leave our egos in the glove compartment of the car when we got there. This really resonated with me. My brother thought it would be funny to grab me and put me in a bear hug, saying, "come on, let me see some of your stuff." I refused many times but he persisted and was taunting me. Finally, to get him to stop, I used a move that Sifu Daniels taught us in class and got out of the bear hug quite effortlessly, stunning my brother. He signed up for classes right after that and became a student of Sifu Daniels also. We eventually both had a good laugh about that time.
