Brentwood Martial Arts & Fitness

My son loves it. All the instructors are great and really connected with the kids. They really care for the kids to strive and be the theirbest. I think the learning curve here compared to other karate places is higher. Two thumbs up…

I practiced martial arts here for about 7 years until the end of high school when I had to leave for college. The great thing about the studio is that it is curtailed to what you want to learn. The instructors ask you what you want to work on and you get to practice that. Besides forms and defense maneuvers, there are two nights of sparring each week.
What really separates this studio from other studios is that you always feel comfortable challenging yourself and trying new things. In sparring, the experienced martial artists go easy on the new members so that they feel comfortable throwing punches back and going on the offense. New members don’t feel like punch bags. By going a little bit slower at the beginning, I had the opportunity to work on my form and developed better martial arts habits.
I have done a year of Shotokan at my university, but I really miss this studio. During my breaks, I go back in for a few lessons to not forget everything I have learned, although I would argue that after a while it becomes engrained as second nature.
