Pinoy Dragon is a wonderful martial arts school. I have been a student for 8 years. When I…read morebegan classes, I was having issues rotating my head and neck. After 2 weeks of cardio kick boxing, and the total body work out, my limited mobility was a thing of the past. I will always be indebted to Master Hudak for all his help! On a side note, although I have only participated in the adult Cardio Kick Boxing class, I have observed Master Hudak work with many children's classes. As a former teacher, it is very easy to see that Master Hudak had a great enthusiasm when working with children and has a great deal to offer today's youth.

I grew up doing Karate in the UK back in the '90s, before martial arts schools started pushing…read moreendless belt tests and charging families left and right. So when I came across Dante Rivera's BJJ Academy, it felt like a breath of fresh air. No sales pitch. No pressure. Just structure, discipline, and real mentorship. I had heard there were two main options locally--Silva's and Dante's. Silva's is known to be more "fun," but I wanted something with purpose. Our past experience with Master Park's Taekwondo was friendly, but confusing. Kids who could barely stay balanced were advancing through the ranks. At Dante's, that doesn't fly. I filled out the website contact form and got a quick response from Norma. When we showed up the next day, I expected the usual sit-down about pricing or discounts for paying cash (code for off the books), but that never came. Instead, Dante walked in, shook hands with every parent, and jumped right into class. What I saw was exactly what I hoped for: a balance of challenge, fun, and respect. My daughters (7 and 8) were pushed to think, focus, and move. I watched a girl struggle emotionally--Dante didn't coddle or ignore it. He guided her through, and she finished strong. That kind of moment tells you everything you need to know. There's discipline here, but it's not cold. It's real. Kids are expected to give their best. Parents were laughing as Dante cracked jokes--like threatening to lock kids in a closet or eat their feet. It's the kind of tough love that works, and the kids eat it up. After class, I asked the girls if they'd like to come back twice a week. Immediate yes. When I asked Norma what's next, she simply said: "Go home, talk about it as a family." No pitch, no hard sell. They didn't need to--the program speaks for itself. While we were there, I saw a dad bring his son over to speak with Dante about a tough class he had. Dante bent down, listened, and told the boy, "You can always come talk to me." That kind of care? You can't fake it. If you're looking for a place where your child will be challenged, supported, and treated like a real student--not just a customer--Dante's is it. We're proud to be part of this academy.

Over and beyond that, the business owner, Mike Sclafani, is nice and generous, and the staff are genuinely friendly, welcoming, supportive, and professional. It's just sad to learn that after 14 years, it is closing its doors permanently on September 15, 2026.
