Master Mike Hill has been teaching traditional Soryu Karate for over 20 years and has won countless championships in the Texas Amateur Karate Organization.

My Son's karate skill level ramped up rapidly after we started taking him here and as a result has one first place at many of the tournaments. Anyone interested in learning karate the way it was originally taught should drop by and watch a class to see if it is a good fit.

In just six weeks, I've gained confidence, improved my fitness, and seen benefits in hiking, running, and even how I focus at home and at work. Keep reading for my full experience below. _________________ I've been training at Martial Athletes for about six weeks, attending striking with Coach Cannon, Jiu-Jitsu with Coach Freddy, and HIIT with Coach Maria. From day one, the gym has been welcoming, encouraging, and energizing. I'm a woman in my 40s with a background in weightlifting and CrossFit-style sports, and I was looking for a new challenge to get back to the fitness and confidence I once had. That mindset has helped me dive into these classes. These classes are challenging and real combat sports, not just cardio boxing. Don't let that be intimidating! Just something to keep in mind. Aside from watching Pride and UFC with my husband, I had virtually no martial arts experience before joining. Six weeks is still a short time in a martial arts gym, and my skill level definitely shows. It can be frustrating at times, but I keep showing up, and little by little, I'm improving. The coaches are incredible. They make you feel welcome no matter your skill level. They won't sugarcoat your abilities, but their feedback always comes from a place of honesty, patience, and kindness. The community is amazing, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping you grow. Walking into the gym can feel intimidating at first, but by week three you will be hooked. You might wonder, if I'm still learning and not very good, what's the point? Here's a story. I love hiking, but I used to constantly look down, never fully trusting myself on the trail. On Christmas Eve, after just five weeks in class, I went for a long hike and found myself looking up, confident, and trusting my body and my feet. I was able to enjoy the golden hour sunset and take in the horizon instead of staring at the trail beneath me. I recently ran a full mile, something that may not sound impressive, but I did it without pain. Unlike weightlifting, my training here strengthens my joints and ligaments along with my muscles, so I don't experience the usual aches. Again, I ran with my head up, chasing the horizon instead of watching my feet. Striking and BJJ demand focus. You have to pay attention, follow your opponent, and anticipate what's coming next. This practice has also improved my active listening at home and at work. I thought I was a good listener before, but now I can tell I'm much more present. Coach Cannon, Coach Freddy, and Coach Maria, you are patient, skilled, and amazing. I can't say enough about the gym and its community.

Character building for children Coach Cannon is genuinely…read morekind, patient, and attentive towards our kids' needs and interests. Working with young kids is not easy, but Coach makes class fun and challenging. My 4yo started out relatively shy, not knowing the moves or words, and within only 5 lessons, he's already more confident and enthusiastic about learning martial arts. Both of my kids really like Coach Cannon. In 5 classes, my son's learned: punching, kicking, blocks, jumps, stances, movement, combo moves, and agility practice. Trial classes are offered. We've surveyed the older kids' class out of curiosity, and I truly like that class begins (and ends) with the coach creating a connection with the kids. He asks them about their interests, school life, friendships, and promotes an anti-bullying message. Great Environment for the family Classes are available for young kids (4yo and up). There is a homeschooling class available on weekdays. Private lessons are available for children and adults. Space is clean, bright, fun and welcoming. There is a small play area for younger kids to play with blocks and lego while their older siblings attend class. Classmates are engaging and seem to get along like a team. Pricing: Fair, Accommodating Personal Bonus: Coach Cannon has Marvel gear (Spiderman and Captain America) That's pretty awesome! We sincerely recommend Martial Athletes.

For the past two decades, I have conducted seminars across the country, sharing the principles of Taekwondo and TaeKwonYuSul with dedicated martial arts communities. Among the many schools I've worked with, Master Kaufman's Taekwondo studio stands out. I've had the pleasure of working closely with Master Kaufman and his students for more than 20 years. During that time, I've witnessed firsthand the excellence of his instruction and the character of his students. They consistently demonstrate respect, discipline, and a sincere dedication to learning. Their skill level and attitude are a direct reflection of Master Kaufman's tireless commitment--not only to teaching martial arts techniques but also to shaping strong, responsible individuals. Master Kaufman is a true martial artist and educator. His passion for the arts and his care for his students are evident in everything he does. I am proud to continue working alongside him and to support the work he's doing for the next generation of martial artists. -- Grandmaster Sam Um Founder of TaeKwonYuSul
