Kiddo is learning so much. It helps her with her tenacity. She's a little more bold as well. The teachers are very kind and supportive. It's family run, and they also hold some events for the community. Very cool. They encourage pursuit in excellence in school as well as on the mat. Some kids that have been there awhile, you can see how their behavior has changed as they grow to be more self-disciplined in classes. Overall, I think most kids would benefit from classes here. read more

Great folks. I attended their teen-adult for about two or so years before going to college, and now help out with photographing their events. Both Abel and Sarah are very warm, welcoming people and want to see their students their students tap into their potential. For what it's worth, I would say you get a killer workout while being part of a great community. Martial arts- especially this academy- has helped shape me into who I am today, and I would recommend trying this place out if you're looking to get yourself or your kids into taekwondo. read more

Best decision we made was enrolling our 7 year old in Ucelo Martial Arts! In the short time he has been a student, his confidence has boosted, he is more present and respectful, and he has so much fun in class! 100/10 recommend! read more

Amazing place for your little one to learn discipline and techniques and respect. I highly recommend it. My son has ADHD and the instructors here are very patient and are trained for kids with ADHD. My son has been attending for 3 weeks now and we have already noticed a change. We enjoy the 1on1 with Master Ucelo. I would like to also add that this place is family owned and very friendly. Sarahi has treated like family is always attentive. If you want your little one to learn Karate this is the place. They also offer striking and BJJ for adults which I am excited to sign up for. read more

My 10 year old son kept getting in trouble at school. Over and over, the disciplinary actions became tougher and tougher. It wasn't working. Deciding I didn't like the direction of my son's behavior, I knew he needed direction. He needed to better understand the concepts of courtesy, self-control, and respect. He also had too much energy, and too much free time. He needed an activity, and needed to learn lessons you just can't find in normal sorts. He needed someone who would be tough on him, who would wear him out. I decided to enroll him in martial arts. I wasn't expecting my son to love it as much as he does. He took to martial arts like it was something he'd been missing his entire life. And I wasn't prepared for the results. His behavior has drastically improved at home, at school or anywhere he goes. i feel that this wouldn't have been possible without the help of Master Abel and Sarah Ucelo. These people aren't just trying to teach kids how to kick ass, they're helping to mold future leaders. They're influencing kids to better themselves, their surroundings and everyone around them. To better their communities. Their school has a comfortable, local feel. There are no bullies, this isn't Cobra Kai. They're here to make a difference, and from what I've seen, they've already succeeded. I found Ucelo Martial Arts by chance. Pulling up a quick search, I chose the nearest school. I wasn't expecting to find the best. 10 Gold Stars for UMA. read more
