The instructors at Alchemy took the time to teach my son as he was rolling with other students as opposed to letting a new student learn on his own with a more experienced child. Very very good instructors that re-ignited his love for BJJ. You don't need a black belt to teach a child, you need patience and the ability to communicate to a child. My son competed in his first tournament with Alchemy and can't wait for the next one. We have since moved to a new gym after re locating. It should be noted that our son was immediately competitive at his new gym. Thanks Alchemy 5 stars!!

For my kids, it's been a…read moreplace to build real discipline and stick with it when things get challenging (plus make friends). Their team of staff and student leaders help each student progress individually while growing with your group as well. You don't just train--you become part of a community where everyone cheers for each other's progress. When they believe in the student, the student starts to believe, too. For me, it's been a chance to push myself in ways I didn't expect. The confidence you gain on the mat carries over into your life, whatever you're doing. And honestly--it's fun. Why is sore knees and sweating fun? Because even while you're working hard, you're learning new skills, overcoming challenges, and taking a break from everything else. It's like stepping into a different "box" for a while. I'm a firm believer that anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. You don't have to be great to start--you just have to start. Keep going and you WILL progress. You can try 2 weeks free.

Our family absolutely LOVES Master Bang's Martial Arts. We have three children enrolled here, and…read morethe growth we've seen in them (physically, mentally, and emotionally) has been incredible. The instructors create a perfect balance of discipline, patience, encouragement, and fun. They don't just teach Taekwondo... they teach respect, confidence, focus, responsibility, and how to carry yourself in and out of the studio. What we appreciate most is how they truly see each child. They learn their personalities, their strengths, and the areas where they need more support. Our kids have become more confident, more kind, more resilient, and more motivated in everything they do. The environment is family-oriented, welcoming, and positive. The instructors lead by example and the kids really respond to that. We always leave class feeling grateful to be part of this community. We can't recommend Master Bang's enough

A year and a half later, my husband, daughter and I have all joined my son on the mat. Why? Because this is a welcoming family environment that we get to be apart of.

My son is coming up on 2 years of being there and I can already see a difference in his confidence. It's always free to try for your children or yourself.
