I highly recommend this school. He offers multiple martial art programs. My 11 yr old followed him for his kickboxing classes. She is the only child/female in the class. He, and the other students, have treated her as an equal. Everyone is welcoming, helpful, inclusive, and respectful. Master Isaac is an amazing instructor and is wonderful with children.

We couldn't be happier with Legion Martial Arts. Master Isaac is incredibly kind. He really sees everyone's individual needs and provides great hands-on instruction. The studio is always clean and welcoming, the pricing is great, and they offer so much more than just martial arts including day camps and summer camps. Most importantly, my son is always excited to go.
