Rachel Willis

Crabapple Martial Arts has been an awesome experience for my daughter. She has become more confident and focused. She loves going to class and has a great time every time. The teachers make it fun but keep them focused as well on actually learning the skills correctly. It's a wonderful program.

Ivana Veselinovic

This class is a very positive experience for our daughter. She is learning respect, discipline, some fantastic life skills and building on confidence each week. Excellent instructors and a very positive atmosphere.

Russell Scherwin

Our son has been a part of Crabapple Martial Arts Academy for a few years. We wholeheartedly recommend it - for youngsters and those more experienced. The leadership blends excellent instruction, positive leadership, and character-creating thoughtfulness in creating a "warrior mentality" in its students who are well schooled in the discipline, and understand that martial arts is a tool that (in some situations) is used to mitigate risk on the path towards life goals. It's also been a positive influence in teaching our son HOW to set goals and achieve them. If you're considering joining, do it. Don't waste your time thinking twice.
