For our daughter, we always want the best and thats is something we feel she is getting with her martial arts training. She enjoys it for the friends she’s made through it and we love it because of the life skills she is learning. Great for self-confidence, respect and personal protection, she really has benefited and in the two years she has been reaching new heights through the belt ranking system!

We enrolled Ryan hoping he would develop physical skills that helped him cope with bullying. We discovered that it is the psychological skills that he developed that are the key to self-protection!

I am so glad I decided to start Martial Arts after my son. It gives us something to do together, we love to go to tournaments and support each other. It has been and will continue to be a wonderful mother and son activity!

I want to tell you how much KarateBuilt™ Martial Arts Academy has meant to our family. Having a young man with Down Syndrome has been a challenge for us. His weight, coordination, and self confidence was all in need of help. I had checked out several options for him to help with these problems and was very happy with what I saw at KarateBuilt™ Martial Arts Academy. I was so impressed I not only signed up my step-son, but my grandson as well. Justin and Brad have blossomed while there. Justin has improved his balance and self confidence and wants to be a black belt more than anything. Thanks so much for teaching the respect and consideration that the instructors have and that they pass on to all the students.

Through Master Moody’s Leadership Program we have seen our son progress from a pensive teenager to a mature gentleman who excels not only at Taekwondo but academically and socially as well. We have come to expect excellence from Matthew - because he expects it from himself.

My son James loves the helpful instructors as he has worked his way from a white belt up to now being a green belt! Now after school James has something to look forward to. Although challenging he is always encouraged to further his development, something KarateBuilt takes pride in. I strongly encourage Songahm Taekwondo lessons as I have watched James development in strength and discipline.

Our whole family is in Leadership and it (leadership) has improved our family dynamic... the children are much more responsible & we as parents, use the life skills taught every day.

My son and I are both students at the location in Cave Creek. Our experience has been excellent! My son started at 5 years old, and after over 2 years, he has developed incredible discipline, focus, respect, and fitness. I can not recommend this studio enough, and I believe every parent should have their child enroll in martial arts. As for myself, I love taking the adult classes as well. It has increased my strength both mentally and physically. A great studio with great instructors!

A couple of my daughters’ friends started taking Martial Arts lessons and my daughter wanted to join them. After doing some research, I decided to get her enrolled. She now has convinced me to take lessons for myself too! She takes Karate lessons and I take Self Defense lessons. Not only is this a great bonding tool but it is also a great way to stay in shape for me!

Tyler was very shy when we first started & seemed to lack confidence. Karate has given him the confidence he needed. In addition to a second family, he doesn’t want to let his instructor down so he always strives to do great things & make good choices. As our children get older, pressures do come up but if you surround yourself with love & positive role models, I think this will only help mold these futures. The Leadership Program has changed our lives & I can’t imagine life without it.

Ryan was spending at least 6-7 hours a day on the computer, but since starting Karate 2 months ago, he has spent a lot less time on the computer, more time outside – he’s a much happier boy! Thanks Guys!

The Karate for Kids Program has something for every member of the family. My oldest has been training for 6 years and is developing real leadership skills. His younger brother and sister are learning how to listen, pay attention and follow directions!
