New Jersey Martial Arts Academy

My son has been a student here for several years. This is a great school, with awesome teachers and a wonderful environment. The teachers set a great example for the students and get the students to match that example: in attitude and effort. The teachers find this great balance between pushing the students to be the best they can be, expecting the most out of them, and having a fun and lighthearted approach to help them keep going with a smile and laugher. They build them up without falsely leading them to believe that "everyone gets a trophy" without dedication and perseverance - and when their effort and progress are seen, it's recognized. At the same time, not every student is very athletic and they still help them to give it their all and feel a sense of accomplishment when they're effort pays off. Highly recommended!!! What a sense of community and belonging!

Love doing karate here! Sensei’s are always helping you no matter if it’s before class, after class. Amazing and friendly atmosphere. All of the people/kids/parents are like a gigantic family. Would not recommend anything else!!!

My kids have been attending this dojo for 3 years and myself for about 1&1/2 years and we love it here! Hanshi and Renshi Carmona are the best instructors you can find to teach your kids (and myself) not only in karate but also in being a good person. The quality of teaching is by far above standard and the people in the dojo make it a wonderful environment in which to spend your time.
