The physical environment is top notch with mats and equipment. The coaches are very chill and student focused. It's about what you need to learn and they have the knowledge. I don't enjoy traveling all the time but this school is a great incentive when I have to revisit this area. Looking forward to learning more.

I came to Kalamazoo last week on a business trip and was searching for an academy that offered…read moreearly morning training, as that was all my schedule would allow. I am a white belt who just wants to learn and I had the privilege of meeting and training with Professor Ken and his team. I travel a lot for work and have had various experiences being a "drop in", but I cannot say enough good things about the academy, the people who train here, and Professor Ken. They welcomed me right in, the morning vibe and atmosphere was perfect to get the blood moving, Professor Ken gave individual attention and improvements to my techniques, and they let me roll. I will definitely "drop in" here again and would recommend as a home academy to anyone searching! Thanks Coach Ken!

I have been going to KAT for the past 4 years and it has been an amazing experience. My priority…read morehas always been to be healthy, prevent injuries, get stronger, and maybe look stronger while I'm at it. KAT has allowed me to knock all of these goals out of the park. Before KAT, I didn't know what to do in a gym and often stuck with running on a treadmill. At KAT, they make personalized programs tailored to your individual fitness goals and abilities. I've learned and done tons of exercises with barbells, dumbbells, bands, bodyweight, etc. that work all the different muscles in the body. All of the trainers are exceptionally knowledgeable. They teach you the exercises and make sure you have the proper form and prevent injuries. They also push you when they know you can do more. And they're incredibly friendly, which makes working out a lot more fun. Over time, my fitness abilities have improved immensely. KAT's more personalized than traditional group fitness classes or open gyms, but not as expensive or intimidating as personal training. There's a maximum of 4 people per session, and it's very motivating and fun seeing other people also working towards their individual fitness goals. At the end of every session, we do a "burn out" together where we do several exercises together and it's a lot of fun. You truly feel like a part of a family/community with the other clients working out and the trainers. I can't recommend KAT enough!

The owner doesn't even wear his belt, and it is clear this school is rapidly declining. There is very little energy or motivation during the sessions because so few students actually show up anymore.
