Emery Academy of Martial Arts

My 10-​year-​old son has been attending Emery Academy of Maritial Arts for almost 3 years now. He truly cannot get enough of the environment that Mr. Emery and Ms. Kimmi have created. It is undeniable how they have put their heart and soul into creating an arena that promotes learning a wide range of martial arts skill, building confidence and teaches the importance of self discipline and respect for others. MR. EMERY TEACHES EVERY CLASS and engages each student in a personable manner. He is very invested in his students and they learn to invest in themselves! The mutual respect in an Emery Academy class is evident and it demonstrates that the students gain much more than a martial arts lesson. The students are learning life lessons and I cannot think of a more caring and qualified individual than Mr. Emery to teach it to them!

This Martial Arts studio is fantastic! Mr. Emery and Ms. Kimmie are so friendly and welcoming. The studio itself is very well maintained and clean. Parking in the back lot can get a little tricky on Saturdays, but there is plenty of residential parking just around the corner from it, so it’s not a problem.
First off, Mr. Emery is a very talented & skilled Martial Arts instructor. Not to mention, he has an AMAZING gift of patience working with children that not everyone has. I say this especially because my child is not exactly the calmest. Mr. Emery has a direct, but non-​intimidating approach to get the children to listen, respect and follow the instruction. You can see that Mr. Emery and the students enjoy what they are doing/​learning.
I took a chance of having my 6yr old son try out this Martial Arts studio (based on a recommendation) because he has the tendency to try something new and then not like it; but he absolutely LOVES it! It’s definitely worth the distance & traffic we deal with to go here.
