We love Martial Arts University! The instructors Mr. Weber and Porter have a great balance of personalities and teaching styles that complement each other. It’s the perfect mix! My kids enjoy every class, we’re really happy, and the schedule is super convenient.

My son has been going to MAU for roughly 1.5 months and so far, he absolutely loves it! The instructors have been so kind to him and are so knowledgeable. Grateful to have found this place as he continues to grow in skills and confidence!

My 13 year old has been coming to MAU for almost 5 years now. This school is a good balance of traditional taekwondo and positive reinforcement which is especially good for the young kids. It's important for teenagers too. There is a high emphasis on character development and plenty of opportunities for physical challenges for those who want to push themselves. My son has made good friends here. I have been very pleased with my investment in my son's development here

MAU is a clean facility that has outstanding instruction. Most classes have multiple instructors for more 1:1 time. They offer kids night that my six year old really enjoys. You can tell leadership works hard to create a great community here.

Our 5-year-old son has been at Martial Arts University for about two years now. From day one, all the instructors have been amazing — Master Harris, Ms. Hope, Mr. Mario, and Mr. Weber (just to name a few) are all incredible with the kids! They manage to find the perfect balance between fun, structure, and discipline. We’ve seen such a dramatic difference in our child’s confidence, focus, and respect — both in class and at home. The energy here is so positive, and you can tell every instructor genuinely cares about their students. We've had such a positive experience we will be enrolling our 2-year-old in classes here soon. If you’re thinking about signing up your child, do it — you’ll be so glad you did. Martial Arts University is truly the best!
