Not only are they true masters at their craft, but they are so incredibly good with children. They somehow manage being so fun, loving, encouraging, personal, and command respect (and teach it) all at the same time! I wish my kids would listen to me the way they do with them (ha!) but I'm so happy they have such amazing role models in their lives. I'm so thankful both my kids are enrolled and plan on staying there until they both get black belts! as a mother, I highly recommend US Taekwondo.

The crew and master Sam are really helpful and understanding teachers. I can understand things they explain and easily improve my work with their help. It's not only that I get to learn martial arts at the Flying Kick center, but learn discipline. I have lots of fun and learn new stuff every day. If you or anyone you know want to go to a karate place and learn karate I wouldn't recommend any other place but here.

Where do I began!!! (I never write reviews btw)…read more Master Sam has been a true blessing I wish I found FKMA years ago. I currently have my son Giovanni enrolled and we don't plan on going anywhere-EVER lol. I've done martial arts for a couple years so I have a pretty good idea what to look for.. these days "some" Martial Arts places treat your kid like a car payment: 8,12 and 15 month contracts plus more extra's like large cancellation fee's. I went 7 different martial locations through SFV and they all have the same carefree script plus exact crazy monthly pricing. After reading reviews I finally found Master Sam and his team at FKMA and automatically feel in love with how everything was ran. First day walking in I had an hour conversation with Giovanni in his office not even talking about martial arts .. more about Giovanni's past, present and where he would like to go in the future!!! His approach is amazing he wants your child to flourish inside and outside his classes with grades, family and friends just life in general. Shit! After the first day I walked out learning something as a parent ..he really is a awesome man.... now to his kick ass staff! Nadia Master Sam's daughter I met only a handful of times but she's a total sweetheart. AMANDA, ANDREA & NICK are perfect additions to the classes ALL BLACK BELTS they're not there to watch your kid throw lazy kicks and punches. You better come correct with the 2 ladies cause you will get called out lol this places stresses "doing it right". No push overs here trust me when I say your kid will learn and have fun doing it. Bottom line been here for a while coming 3 sometimes 4 times a week (when we can) and wouldn't change a thing. Master Sam even switched up the times later for parents to make it easier to bring your child after school and work - 4:30pm and 5:30pm sessions! Come sign up you wont be sorry- tell em Justin sent ya :)

I was so eager to get him started now to get his energy out in a disciplined activity. I anxiously watched him walk on to the mat to start the class. Minutes later, I was so sad when he came running out to me in tears. After the class, Master Park worked with him one on one to get him comfortable and confidant. This happened again. My heart sunk but i was so grateful to Master Park for workingwith our son. On the third class, he participated in the entire class and got his white belt! I was smiling ear to ear on the verge of happy tears watching Master Park donning the white belt. Master Park was so patient and so good with our son and all the other kids in the class.

I've never seen him listen so attentively or follow instructions so well in any other sport or activity. The energy in the room was fantastic, and the instructors did an excellent job of keeping the kids focused while creating a positive and encouraging environment. They were firm when needed, patient, and always willing to help my son throughout the class. What stood out to me the most was the culture of teamwork and support. Several of the kids went out of their way to help my son, and it was great to see the older students taking an active role in keeping the younger kids engaged, attentive, and included. It truly felt like a welcoming community. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I highly recommend Gracie Barra to any parent looking for a structured, supportive, and confidence-building activity for their child.

I eventually found Kyu Martial Arts and it was definitely a game changer for me. Kyu Martial Arts is great for getting in shape and (very important) to learn Taekwondo (martial arts style). Master Lee pushes his students to do their best. Each class is very physical, demanding, and very engaging. The big key here is that Master Lee will get in your face and make sure you're really trying. Believe me when I say it is beyond awesome and motivational. The class is doing different work-outs each night while we focus on fighting and defense techniques. I lost an incredible amount of weight by showing up 4 nights a week, and I've been able to keep that weight off. There are no secrets or any magic pills to Master Lee's classes. Work hard, and you'll become better. Practice, and you will become better. Respect others, and you will earn respect. His classes also have a general theme of be-a-better-person. Master Lee's classes also reinforce respect. There isn't a single negative thing anyone can say about Master Lee and his center. I HIGHLY recommend Kyu Martial Arts.

A friend of mine that I met on Yelp by the name of Alizul told me that she is a Pilates instructor…read moreand after I found that out I told her that one day I would like to come and join her class. I went in on the 9th of this month to try Pilates for the first time in a very long time. Walked into an empty studio and it was only her and I. I was a bit surprised that there were no other students there and I even told her. So basically it was a one on one session that started at 5:30pm. Alizul was very good at her job for only being there since middle of May. Took her time for me to follow her lead and instructions. The pace level was also great! They offer classes which include the following: Yoga, Pilates, Kyudo, Tai Chi, Laido (sword drawing), for adults, children, teens and seniors. When I walked in, Alizul made me sign a waiver for liability purposes and few other forms. Really enjoyed her class, technique, and style. Lee, who is the owner of this studio, has over 4 decades of experience in marshal arts. I didn't meet her personally, but later she sent me a text message apologizing for one of their instructors by the name of Keri. We were on our way out and Keri had a class coming in. We didn't take any of her time, but she was rude and unprofessional by saying "we have a class right now" I truly think she was having a senior moment or a bad day. They take all method of payments, has a gender neutral restrooms, street and private lot parking space. The class for an hour was $20.00 which was FANTASTIC!! Studio was super clean and fully equipped with all the amenities that you need for your classes. Thank you Lee, Alizul, and North Valley Aikikai. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is interested of taking any one of their classes. If I lived near by, I would become a regular member.
