    Folks, I post this as an excellent way to deal with your child being bullied. Please Please Please…read moredo your child the favor of at least investigating this place. I know many of the martial arts schools in Sullivan County and I have frankly never met a teacher like the man who runs this one. Excellent school of Martial Arts. The teacher, Mr. Belsito, is clearly invested in his students and in particular those younglings who come to his school with issues which cause them to be distracted or not do well in school, and those who are bullied. Mr. Donald E. Belsito Sr. does NOT teach kids to be aggressive, rather he teaches them the wisdom to walk away from a battle when they can, and also the wisdom to know how to defend themselves when they must. I wish he would teach his courses in the schools here in the local Sullivan County districts. In the spring of last year I brought him my youngling who was getting into fights at school, not doing well in his studies, significant aggression issues due to being bullied and a haphazardous self image. It is now November and this kid has made a 180* turnaround in every aspect of his life. It is almost surreal how the constancy of Mr. Belsito's martial arts instructor tutelage, his patience, his attention to detail and abhorrence of sloppy work, has been a major factor in my boy's life. He has made Student of the Month this year; he brings home no less than a 90 in his grades; his teachers are ecstatic at his new enthusiasm in class, his focus, his quest to actually learn, and his attention to detail. I refuse to believe it was only coincidence that the turnaround occurred as he became more intensely involved with his martial arts classes. I highly recommend the Catskill Martial Arts Academy for teeny kids, mid-sized kids, older kids, teens, and adults.

    I have known Brooke Chilson for 30 years. I took my sons to karate when she began taking karate. My…read moresons and I always looked up to her. She has always demonstrated exceptional dedication, skill, patience, and knowledge of both the physical and philosophical aspects of karate. I am now a grandparent and bring my granddaughter to watch her father once again doing karate, and have observed how well Sensei Brooke is able to work with her students of all ages and skill levels, and how hard she works hard to ensure all students from beginners to advanced, get the time and attention they need to grow in confidence and competence in their practice of karate. Sensei Brooke's dojo is bright, clean, welcoming and decorated with pictures of former Masters and students. She maintains a structured learning environment incorporating fun, respect, and discipline, while working toward continually perfecting her students' skills. Sensei Brooke's approachable, supportive, and caring style benefits her students by offering individual guidance, which helps them develop not only as martial artists but also as individuals. I can't wait until my granddaughter is old enough to begin taking karate with Sensei Brooke!

    If you are looking for traditional martial arts teaching with emphasis on respect and hard work…read morethen this is your dojo! Sensei Brooke is a detail oriented instructor who also cares about the things going on in your life. Sensei Brooke's instruction and dojo environment are such that students grow in their skill and confidence as they train. Students from her dojo recently competed in the Shito-Ryu Karate-Do Genbu-Kai 2021 International Goodwill Championships, and most earned top 3 finishes in kata and weapons form competition.
