His confidence has grown, his hand-eye coordination has improved, and I've even been able to lean on his Sensei as another source of discipline and accountability--much more meaningful than just promising him treats for good behavior. I'm very thankful for the positive impact this school has had on my son, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a program that builds both character and skills.

I have earned by 1st Dan Black Belt and am also an instructor. My 4 kids train at UKMF as well. This is in my opinion as close as you can get to true Israeli Krav Maga under Master Alain Cohen directly out of Israel. The Brazilian JuJitsu program as well as their firearms courses/seminars are top notch as well. They are taught by master our of Brazil and a Master Law Enforcement instructor. If you want a challenge, pushed to your limits and beyond while learning Krav Maga, then you to go to Underground Krav Maga and Fitness. You won't regret it.

What a great place to train…read more I had been looking for a place to start training after a layoff of about 10 years. This school is perfect! The school offers instruction in both BJJ (grappling) and Muay Thai (stand up fighting) in an atmosphere which is fantastic for new or seasoned practitioners of the sport. The instructors are knowledgeable and skilled in their art form and make training sessions informative and challenging. If you're looking for a place to learn a martial art in a good environment with excellent instruction, Dominion BJJ Manassas is the place to be.

You're definitely going to find something that works for you! The gym is a warehouse with plenty of parking around it. Just make sure you don't park anywhere that says do not block (you would think people know, but you'd be surprised ). The owner, Sean, is very kind and helps walk you through all of the options that you have for classes. You can tell he really cares about all of his students and is easy to talk to. Additionally, everyone else in the gym is extremely welcoming and friendly. They make sure that you feel like you are part of a team even if it's your first class. If you are looking to switch gyms or try something new, this is the best place to try it!

I'm very disappointed with my experience with Silver Back Academy. I have been trying to contact…read morethem regarding my gym membership because I moved out of state and am no longer able to use the facility. I tried calling the phone number listed on their website, but the number is out of service. I also contacted them through the email address provided on their website and received no response. I even attempted to reach them through social media, but again, I received no response. I understand that memberships may have specific policies, but it is extremely frustrating when there appears to be no reliable way to contact the business to discuss an issue or get guidance--especially when I am continuing to pay for a service I can no longer use. I would strongly recommend that the academy provide customers with a reliable and responsive way to communicate with them, particularly for membership-related issues.

I'm very pleased to see that he finally was able to open his own independent dojo to celebrate traditional Okinawan Uechi Ryu Karate, as well as the rich cultures that Okinawa brings. The Cultural Center has many artifacts in a museum style in a side room. There's also many people from the community like the DC Okinawan Kai who utilizes the space. It is a safe and welcoming space for not just Okinawan people, but those interested in learning more about the culture and tradition. This spacious dojo has two kicking/punching bags ready for training, many talented instructors, and classes for children and adult alike! I am excited for what's to come for this OKCC! I hope new students can find their new karate home like it's been for me throughout the years!

During that time, he hosted some of the Okinawan masters at his dojo, which is how we met. Those were great classes, and when it was time for me to find a new dojo, I joined Master Folta at his new location. It's a fine space, and the training there is authentic and excellent. Master Folta is kind and genuine, while also encouraging everyone to reach for the highest standards. His careful eye has improved my karate in many ways, large and small. I was careful in my choice of schools, and picked the best one in the area. I've seen his students, both kids and adults, get better over time and stay with the program. If you're serious about learning karate that works, this is the place I recommend. There is a lot to learn, and this is the real deal.
