Sensei Ibrahim and Sensei Lennon - they seriously make this place amazing. My 6 year old son had…read morebeen going for a couple of years and he genuinely looks forward to it. At one point over the summer he had to choose between soccer and karate, and it was a no-brained for him. They make you feel like family here and are so inclusive, which I love. I had to pull my son out for a bit because chess tournaments have now taken over his time, but once that slows down, we'll definitely be returning to UMA&F.

This dojo, Kyoshi Herman and all of the staff are incredible. At first my son started at age 5,…read moreafter his dad died suddenly. It was naturally very upsetting and he had a lot of emotions to deal with, especially at that young age, which is difficult. Kyoshi Herman was so kind to him and still is. He helps him get through those humps with his emotion and teaches him to channel them in a positive, productive way. Now my 5 year old twin daughters attend as well. They love it. They come home proud of their belts and about all of the moves they learn. They also learn great lessons like help mom around the house and don't wait until you're asked. Invaluable! They also have camps for days off and fun events like Nerf Wars and movie nights. Don't skip this place!

I started to have horrible eating habits. A complaining spirit. And a sedentary lifestyle. When I couldn't walk up a flight of stairs I knew I needed change. I went to a trial class in my sweats not knowing what to expect. I got the greatest workout I've had in a long time. Hands down beats the gym. You're paired with a partner and you're accountable for each other during class. Kickboxing techniques are taught (MMA is also provided). Then once that's over, strength routines are given out. We close the end of class with stretch routines. I can mentally and physically see a difference after just 2 weeks of class. I have been attending for about two months and entered a 90 days challenge. They guide us on what to eat, how to train, and obtain goals. Best decision I've made in 2018 thus far. OUS

I really wanted to like this place the one on one free personal class with the Sensei exceeded my…read moreexpectations the actual studio is extremely clean and I was very impressed that the older students as part of their training was cleaning as well their students also showed a lot of respect and manners as they open the doors for myself and my children and were very polite however I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable as the sales pitch of joining versus feeling like I was buying a used car. The price for classes is higher than any of the other local competing karate studios in addition to the price for gear and other necessary equipment for training I needed to consider the cost and speak to my husband before spending a certain amount of money that literally equals a car payment each month and felt it was something we had to discuss however we were going to do it then they just kept texting and calling which made me really uncomfortable because I felt like I once again was dealing with the used car place parking And this area of Rockville center is extremely tricky but I do believe they have a solid program I just don't feel comfortable spending that kind of money every month
