Do you want to grow in self-defense, self-confidence and strength? Do you want to find a community of supportive, God-loving families to root you on? This is the place! My four children began taking lessons in gradeschool and continued until Mr. Falbo helped them reach the level of blackbelt. When they moved up to the Teen/ Adult class, I jumped in with them. Now, at 56 years old, I too am a blackbelt. It has been an amazing journey. If I can reach that level, anyone with an attitude of endurance can do it too! The Falbos encourage their students to "strive for excellence" in the most supportive & uplifting way.

From the owner: Ron Little Martial Arts offers the most diversified martial arts training in Northwest Florida…read more This school was founded for the students, offering everything they could possibly want in their training. It is geared to provide the most complete martial arts training program available at any price. Our curriculum includes a combination of Korean Tang Soo Do, Japanese Jujitsu, Fillipino Arnis, as well as other fighting systems. Our training program is based upon the Tae Gun Do method. Tae Gun Do is not a martial arts style, but rather a martial arts philosophy who's name means "To Seek Simplicity." Following this philosophy, we study our various martial arts in an effort to find the simplest, most efficient means to achieve our self defense needs.

PTSDA Karate is a martial arts school every family should check out and consider. Founder and…read moreinstructor Master DuFour, his wife, and their team teach the traditional martial art of Tang Soo Do in a safe, disciplined, but also extremely enjoyable environment! This karate school has been a staple in Pensacola for many years and flourished through hard seasons in our community, from hurricanes to COVID, adapting and continuing to serve. You will see young children through adults each night training and learning in classes, and my family has personally benefitted greatly by the wonderful instruction for years. Each class provides not only an excellent work out, high caliber martial arts instruction, but also teaches weekly lessons on character that help in all facets of life. In the current craze of MMA and even the Cobra Kai approaches, this sets them apart because students are challenged in all areas, and not only know self defense and world class karate skills but the appropriate application of them. PTSDA is a great and professional karate school where everything is done with excellence, yet with a family feel. Five stars for sure!

Core martial arts has multiple programs, each with different instructors of different competencies…read more I enrolled in the Muay Thai program under Chris Scott. While the students and staff displayed respect and competency, Scott uniquely showed a lack of either. During the 1 hour training sessions, Scott would regularly begin class about 15 minutes late chatting or bragging about his personal skill in fighting, and when he actually began class, he would spend most of his time on his phone and forget what exercises he asked us to do. There is no training plan, neither in a day or throughout the year - he arbitrarily assigns exercises. Quite frankly, for the price, you will receive the same training from obtaining a regular gym membership and watching youtube. The only benefit that training under Scott provides is the chance to spar and train with other fighters who have already had training elsewhere. Competency aside, there is the aspect of respect. While the terms are thrown around casually in the current political landscape, Scott is genuinely sexist. When women are not present in the room, he enjoys leading conversations about how women are less capable or motivated than men. In one particular incident, he spent the first 15-30 minutes of a class chatting with other men how women spend their time chatting instead of training. It's frankly pathetic. Scott tries so hard to act masculine that he only comes across as a little insecure boy. What a joke. Overall, while I would recommend the gym, I would not recommend any program under scott. Edit: After posting this review, Scott called me to tell me to take down the review. He informed me that for posting this review publicly, I am pathetic and that it confirmed every negative thing he thought about me. He literally challenged me to fight him at the gym to prove how manly he is. Very masculine.

IDK if this is the full time location or not but the actual location had a note stating that the class was located in the back of the karate place. The gymnastics area was kind of small but really clean. They had a counter and some merchandise around. 2 young instructors were teaching thr group. The group was really small, I think 4 or 5 kids. First they started off with stretching. Then they went thru the course - jumping on the trampoline walkway, rolling over, swinging from the bar, balance beam, then crawling through 2 connected tunnels, and then flipping or rolling down the ramp. The did this a few times then had free time with balls. The mommy and me was short, only 30 mins. My daughter was definitely not ready to stop and got upset that we had to leave. I wish it was a little bit longer and had a bit more activities for them to do. Music would be nice too. The instructors were really friendly and patient with the children and encouraging. Overall, it was good experience, she had fun and that's what matters. I was informed that the first 3 classes were free and then they had different options if you were interested in continuing. They offered classes for other age groups for kids.
