Rich and aspirational Princetonians don't patronize it and the much-needed community support has dwindled as a result.

The kids have learned life skills such as self-discipline, focus, and positive socialization. They have built tremendous physical and mental strength. The instructors at Master Nick's karate have instilled so much confidence and self-respect in the kids. Master Nick himself is wonderful, and he pays attention to each individual kid's needs. And the best thing is, the kids get a great workout! The schedule is also very flexible, you are required to attend 2 classes per week, and classes are available Monday-Saturday evenings. Overall, we have had a very positive experience, and I would highly recommend Master Nick's karate to anyone looking to put their kids in karate!

Life-Changing Experience at Kickside Martial Arts!…read more Joining Kickside Martial Arts has truly been one of the most transformative decisions of my life. What began as a challenge quickly became a passion thanks to the supportive community, expert instruction, and motivating atmosphere this school provides. I'm currently a Sr. Blue Belt, and every step of the journey--both physically and mentally--has pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined. The instructors at Kickside are nothing short of extraordinary. They're not only high-degree black belts with impressive skill and experience, but also incredible teachers who are genuinely invested in their students' progress. Their passion for martial arts and dedication to helping each student succeed is clear in every class. The community here is something special. I've built meaningful relationships with fellow students who encourage and inspire one another every day. Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience, there's a place for you here--and you'll be surrounded by people who want to see you thrive. Seeing my progression (and the progress of so many others) displayed proudly in the front lobby is such a powerful reminder of how far we've come, and how much this school believes in celebrating every victory, big or small. Kickside Martial Arts isn't just a place to train--it's a place to grow, to challenge yourself, and to be part of something greater. I'm grateful every time I step onto the mat, and I'd highly recommend this school to anyone ready to start their own journey.

I was interested in taking Krav Magra, as a gf of mine recommended in taking classes. Went for my first session for KM and the instructor Sensei MJ was really patient (considering I was super late!) & was super knowledgable. The basic moves he showed me for self defense made sense in doing it! He's had 20+ years of experience in practicing, living, and incorporating martial arts into his daily life. Really enjoyed my session and counted it for the day's work out! lol Then I saw how he was with my nephew. My nephew is really shy and reserved. It took him a while, but eventually he warmed up and really enjoyed his 1st session with Sensei MJ. Sensei MJ was really patient, kind, respectful when working with him. He was explaining directions, words, and reasons clearly and simply for my nephew to understand. Sensei MJ really makes it a fun session; to get the kid active physically and mentally. To have them really enjoy martial arts. I'm hoping that in signing up, my nephew enjoys the lessons learned in MA and that I learn self defense and re-develop discipline! :) Thanks EMA & Sensei MJ!!!!!! Can't wait for the next session! The photo attached is just the new space!! Can't wait for the TV to get hooked up!!!! :D. Go give them a try!! They also have branches in Colts Neck and Marlboro!!!!!!

The exercise is tremendous and I'm getting into better shape then when I was 20 years old. He teaches in a meticulous, stepwise manner, where you further perfect a skill appropriate to your belt level in every class. Classes are never boring or repetitive as he knows a tremendous variety of exercises and stretches. With my kids, he creates a perfect environment of affection and fun, but with discipline and respect. With master Lim you will learn a historic martial art from a true master. On a personal level, he is a genuine, good person. I highly recommend this place.

I studied martial arts under MMA's owner and his team for 2-1/2 years. Regretfully, I had to stop…read moreover the last couple years due to professional reasons but am now working on going back -- and bringing one or two of my kids with me. First, I have to acknowledge that nobody and no business is perfect. But -- I gotta tell ya -- MMA comes close. They tell you what its policies are up front and they honor them. My experience with Montgomery has been uniformly positive and I can't wait to get started again. The owner is a pro, knows his art, treats his team well and manages the business firmly but fairly. No surprises -- what you see is what you get. He's a charming devil too, but that's not the point (grin). No review of this nature is useful unless the reader is familiar with how the majority of martial arts schools operate. If you do a careful, time-consuming local survey, you'll become educated find many of the local schools to be in a similar or higher price range -- up front. But after you are involved, there are significant fees associated with testing for next rank and a variety of other things. I have a little experience in this area. I call these belt-farms. You or your child will definitely get a black belt from one of these schools, but that is much different from BEING a black belt. And that brings me to the topic of quality... To pursue and become a black belt, you must be dedicated, humble and avail yourself of the benefit of the best teachers and management. That is what I found at Montgomery Martial Arts. I studied the same discipline in PA and in CA as well. In PA, the the talent was there among the leadership but the classes were poorly organized. In CA, the teaching was "OK" and so were the classes -- when they happened (unreliable). As I have been considering going back, I have been taking my kids to watch in the windows of other schools during their classes. Even my kids can see the difference. Do what we did -- go to other schools and watch through the windows. Pay close attention to individuals of higher ranks like brown or red belt and watch them carefully. Especially when they are kicking, watch how much control they have. How is their balance. Do they look confident. Do this at three schools to compare and then do the same at Montgomery Martial Arts. I guarantee if you do, you will arrive at the same conclusion as my 7 and 9 year olds who want to train at MMA. Bottom line -- Montgomery Martial Arts is a great school for adults as well as kids (which is also unusual). The instructors are first class because the owner won't have it any other way. And the owner is a fair and indulgent guy. If you're interested, follow my advice on the research and go for it! Have fun!!! John
