Core Martial Arts Academy

Very happy with how much my sons have learned at Core Martial Arts Academy. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dojo in Catawba County.

My son is a student here and we just love them! What a difference it has made in our lives. Our son has become more confident in his abilities to defend himself as well as learning to respect the art. The staff is amazing and are always supportive to the students. Each of them are willing to go above and beyond to help during class time or even if its something that they may be able to help with on a more personal level. Many thanks and blessings to them.

I began taking martial arts here in July 2013 at the age of 38. Having never set foot in a dojo before, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was mainly interested in pursuing it because my youngest daughter wanted to try it and I didn't want her to feel like she was doing it all on her own. I must say that I have been extremely impressed and do not feel intimidated at all. There are other older adults in the class as well that are higher and lower ranked than myself. Do not let age be a deterrent from pursuing martial arts. We are all like family...whether an adult, teenage, or kid - we are all equal in the dojo as we are all students. It is great exercise and the knowledge taught by all of the sensei's is extremely valuable and presented in a Christian atmosphere. Go Core!!!

i have been taking martial arts here for over a year now and i love it, we are like a huge family and respect each other. when theres a personal problem and you need to talk about it they Senseis and Soke gives great advice on how to deal with it. the thing i love about CMAA is the fact that they make you work for your belts instead of handing them out. but over all this is THE place to take Martial Arts.

My children have taken martial arts ever since they were 6 and 8 years old from these instructors. Both have obtained their black belts and enjoy their time there. The instructors dedicate their time to teach students and to help them achieve their goal
to become a black belt. This school is very affordable and family oriented. I would highly recommend this martial arts school.
