This place is so great for kids-fast paced, disciplined, fun, and easy to work into our schedule with a variety of class times. We love this great community. My girls have been going 5 years and 2 years. And now hubby does it too (also great for adults) :-p

This place is amazing, my daughter started here a little over a year ago and loves it. Teaches her discipline, structure and how to defend herself. And on top of that, she loves coming here. The staff is amazing and knowledgeable. 5 stars

My 5 year old son is very shy and at first was anxious to participate, but Sama Academy was very patient and eased him in. He's still shy and at times needs more time to understand the moves, but they are always patient with him. Joshu can identify when he needs more help and makes sure he gets more attention. I feel like my son is well taken care of and I see a change in his confidence. I love taking him to class and watching him grow here.

I brought my son here to learn discipline and get out his energy. What we got was way more. The instructors and staff take great pride in knowing each student as an individual and do a phenomenal job in teaching life lessons through community activities. An extra plus is their all inclusive pricing method, you can come to as many classes as you want and will never pay hidden fees for belt promotions. My son and I highly recommend Sama Academy.

Attending Sama has revitalized my little girl. She enjoys practicing her moves and enjoys seeing other kids as well as the staff. I have seen he listening, manners, respect, and responsiveness to directions improve and she has a want and will to attend every session. Thank you all!

We have been going to SAMA for 7 years now. Words really don't convey how great our experience has been. Our hope in joining was to provide an effective platform for our young son to gain self-confidence and have the discipline, courage, and skill to defend himself should the situation arise. This, and so much more, has been accomplished. The Academy is the best martial arts school in our area, retaining a high percentage of students who have achieved black belt status. In turn, these students help provide an atmosphere of respect and friendship that make the exercise, drills, and work enjoyable. Sensei Jonathan and all the instructors are consistently great teachers. Although it is usually true that you get what you pay for, at SAMA, you really get much more. Our experience has been priceless. The Academy provides many opportunities to try out their programs and, for anyone interested in learning martial arts, you can't go wrong at SAMA.

My family loves SAMA Academy. My grandson has been at the school since he was 5 years old and is working his way up. He has learned self discipline and respect as well as having gained so much self confdence since starting here. The staff are like family and Sensei Roxas is a wonderful instructor that is amazing with all the kids. I highly recommend this school.
