Rob Serrano’s

By far the best kickboxing and martial arts program around hands down … My wife and I joined so that we could get back into shape and we did. Master Serranos program is fun, energetic and full of great techniques to loose weight and personal defense. I have referred many of my friends and family and they all love his program …

Martial Arts America is a great dojo for students of all ages and abilities. My daughter started there in the Spring of 2015, she has had a great time learning Karate. The teachers at MAA are really supportive and understanding of kids, and they do their best to help the kids get the most out of the program.
I would highly recommend giving it a try.

My grandson enjoyed his martial arts experience.

Some people I know have had good experiences here years ago, but our experience wasn’t very successful.
My 4-​year-​old daughter wanted to try martial arts, so we started here with a Groupon, but it was too many kids and no individualized instruction on proper form and/​or technique.
My daughter was totally lost, and my father-​in-​law, who is experienced in martial arts, agreed when he came in to see what it was like.
In addition, she never got a uniform (it was supposed to be part of the Groupon package), so she felt even more out of place with other Groupon kids that were missing uniforms, too.
This place might be OK for older kids or adults, but if you have beginners or young children that want to try out martial arts, I would instead find somewhere (with some individualized instruction built in) that will assess if your child is really ready.

I bought a Groupon for the kids’ ninja class. It was a very good deal. However, we didn’t end up using the full amount of classes because our experience wasn’t great.
First off, the woman Lori who acts as coordinator/​receptionist was not very friendly and made us feel like we were a nuisance from the first day.
The classes were fine, but I felt that 30 minutes was too short to teach 25 or more children in the age range of 4 – 7, who have short attention spans and require individualized attention. We had to drive all the way over there 2x/​week (to fit the restrictions of the groupon), when it would have made a lot more sense to attend (one) 1-​hr class.
The most irritating thing to me was the general vibe that the staff did not really care about the clients. If you ask a question, they seem put off and don’t try very hard to provide an answer. I witnessed several instances where they rudely reprimanded parents for parking in the spot which was (apparently) reserved for the owner’s Hummer, or for wearing their shoes/​boots on their cheap, old, crappy disgusting carpet. Additionally, no one bothered to lay salt on the very slippery parking lot and sidewalk when there was snow or freezing rain.
The owner strutted around the place, but didn’t typically didn’t seem to greet anyone unless he personally knew them. I never saw him teach a class, so I cannot speak to his manner or qualifications as an instructor.
Be assured that they were nice enough when they asked us to sign up for a package of classes at the regular price (which was $ 100/​month — supposedly a ‘deal’. NOT!!!)
Maybe the experience is different for adults, but I would not recommend it for the children’s classes.

True Fact. I am sad that my internet coupon is over because I really enjoyed coming here. Rob Serrano is a great teacher patient, inspiring, and a hard ass in the good way. If i had the $$$ to buy a full on membership I would. He’s great! I will miss you Rob Serrano’s Martial Arts America. Thank you for the kick boxing lessons.

I take kickboxing here. I originally found this place via a groupon, and I ended up buying a package of classes. Really great workout. Overall a really good experience.
I would have liked more instruction at the beginning on correct form. Also, because of a new groupon, the class sizes are quite large and sometimes bags need to be shared, which can make the workout less effective.
Buckets of sweat.
