Testimonials

  • “I love the classes!! I just started a few months ago and I wish I could join all classes every day!! (I am 28 btw and thought I was too old for this but never say never! I’ve already learnt a lot!) Master Thai is an excellent teacher, wise, clear and he has been very patient with all of my questions (even the silly ones that I pick up from action movies that I try to cross check with reality). He corrected my form step by step the last three months and I’m super excited for my first real test that’s coming up this month! I would 100% recommend his classes!”

  • “We had both our daughters do a week class here over our vacation and Thomas the owner was very personable and did a great job teaching them the basics of martial arts. If we lived closer I would definitely enroll them at this studio. The studio is spacious and clean. The classes were an hour long and both my girls enjoyed it very much. I also did a kickboxing class and loved it. Thomas is really high energy and outgoing and really helpful with the forms. I really thought Thomas was very attentive with all the students. Recommend this studio!!!! You won't be disappointed!”
