My family became a part of the Family Martial Arts Academy family in September of 2018, when my…read more(then 6 year old) daughter began taking karate here, with their Tigers program. Paul Keller, the owner, and all of the Sensei's, are extremely compassionate and dedicated to every student. They have a wonderfully thought out program for kids, that encourages the students to do their best, not only at the dojo, but also within their school, community and home life. Students can earn "Victory" patches to sew on their Gi(uniform), by completing school homework, reading, helping out at home, practicing karate outside of the dojo, doing good deeds in the community, sponsoring another student, etc. My daughter enjoys her karate training, and her dedication to it, has greatly improved her home, school, and other extracurricular activities. I've watched her become more focused, grounded, determined and a better listener. My 3 year old son, is so excited to start his karate training when he turns 4. He loves watching his sissy in class and being at the dojo. Not only do they offer karate classes for the whole family, they also offer Tai Chi, Women's Self Defense, Mixed Martial Arts and Mat Pilates classes. I take Pilates here twice a week from a phenomenal teacher, Alli Breen, a classically trained Pilates instructor. I cannot praise her enough and her dedication to the art of Pilates! We are truly blessed to have such a phenomenal school in our community!

On Friday, 1 June I had a 10 o'clock appointment with Ms Liz to enroll my daughter in the…read moreintroductory session package. My daughter has Down syndrome, needs instruction to develop better focus, discipline, physical agility, and most importantly community and inclusion. The time that Miss Liz spent with myself and my daughter has become absolutely invaluable, as she opened her arms (literally) and excepted my daughter fully and completely without any hesitation, something that does not happen often enough in our world with children and people who have disabilities. We moved to the Murray Hill area in 2001 and have been part of this community ever since. In January 2008 our little angel was born at 23 weeks and four days, making her the second lightest child to survive at Legacy Emanuel Children's Hospital. She has struggled and I have fought the local school district for inclusion, have been to mediation trials, as well as a due process hearings and have won all hearings through the courts; yet, the school district continues to not include her in the mainstream environment. To have her accepted and embraced by Ms Liz, again is highly unexpected for a parent of a child with a disability. I will forever be indebted to Murrayhill Martial Arts for their openness and willingness to fully accept, embrace and include my little angel in their community. Very grateful father.

If you take Armand's class at noon or the evening you're going to be in for a treat. He is very technical but super supportive in the way he mentors students.

Class then ends with a team rally shout and more rolling. Facility is amazing and super clean. People are friendly but are competitive in a positive way. Definitely check out Impact Jiujitsu if you're looking to start training.

Some people go to train to fight in the ring, while most are looking for challenging work outs that improve fitness, self-confidence and ultimately will help you defend yourself and others should you be called upon to do so.

To say thing accelerated at that point would be an understatement! Results from the 6WC are undeniable. My and our experience is that the community, support and culture is unmatched.

I had driven passed by that iLoveKickboxing sign almost daily for a couple of years and had always been curious about it. My only experience with kickboxing was from doing it virtually on Xbox Kinect back in the mid-2010s, but I did fall in love with it then! Then, in August 2025, after my weight loss had been at a plateau for a while, I decided to try it. I scheduled my first class after seeing the ads on Facebook and luckily it was with the ahhhhmazing and HILARIOUS and beautiful instructor, All-In Alex, who played mostly hits from the early 2000s which made me feel right at home, and the workout was exactly what I craved! With 55 classes completed over the last 4.5 months, I've shed another 20lbs. Not only am i healthier, but I am happier. Like so many people nowadays, I don't exactly have financial abundance, but I can see that when I prioritize my health and wellness through this gym and community, my quality of life has improved, and that investment is SO worth it. It's amazing seeing the progress I have achieved in such a short time. I will continue on this path for as long as I can, and I am soooo grateful for the new friends, community, and of course all the amazing instructors that make it so fun and rewarding. I'll admit it-- the classes are addicting. Always looking forward to my next one!

His ability to connect with children and inspire them to do their best is phenomenal. My children have also learned so much in the short time they have been taking lessons here. They are more disciplined and respectful, and I'm so proud to see them have a goal to improve their skills. This place feels like a second home. Everyone who comes here is friendly, encouraging and make this place a joy to come to. I'm here as often as I can be, and I'd recommend it to anyone who's interested in a positive change in their life.
