I love how the instructor waits to gear everything the kids have to say with patience and ackowledges what they say no matter if it's right or not. Yesterday in particular the instructor told one of the kids, when she was reluctant to one of the drills after she realized her mom had stepped out, they would do the front roll after her mom came back. She said she promised. And after class she did what she said. Everyone stopped to watch and after she was done we all clapped for her. Even though she needed help it didn't matter she was so happy and I was so impressed the instructor followed through. This is something not all parents do for their kids, establish trust.
Great place, amazing people! Ms. Nila is my favorite. And Mr Kpandja is so awesome and chill.
Fantastic instructors who care for the students progress. Safety is stressed while the classes are entertain and fun.
My oldest daughter has attended the summer camp 3 consequative years. It was her first choice for summer camp these past 2 years due to the coaches, activities, friends she made, positivity, and learning opportunities. The coaches all work so hard to help kids reach their full potential, meet their goals and make friends. They are also SO communicative with family. 10/10. Awesome summer camp run by awesome people!
I've been going to Murrayhill Martial Arts for years. I love training here. It is great group of people I train with.
For the last four years, since my three kids started classes at Murrayhill Martial Arts, I have noticed considerable improvement in their lives with increased self-confidence, developed self-discipline and seem better skilled in self-defense should there be an imminent threat in school or in daily lives. Not to forget, the Belts earned.
I love that Master Kaari is strict about the rules of her dojo, does not allow distractions with the kid’s goals. She controls the class environment and maintains order, something that us parents need help with at home.
The coaches and instructors are very engaging. My kids love, love, love Coach Neela, Paige and the super talented, Coach Sophia, who makes a strong impact as a coach and trainer. Thank you so much for your diligence in all you do for kids and parents.
Summer camp service during holidays and no school days are very helpful. Stops the craziness of finding a babysitter while we are at work.
Saturday Parents Night Out are such a treat for kids and parents. Kids can be dropped off just for a fun party night while parents can go on a date till 9pm. Basically, babysitting while parents have some time alone.
Thank you for just being there for us!!!!
Murrayhill Martial Arts is the BEST! My son joined almost 9 years ago and is doing fantastic. The instructor's have done so much with him. First starting my son would not communicate, or participate much but they were very patient and kind and worked at his pace. I am proud to say that last October my son tested for first degree black blet. His confidence has grown tremendously and he absolutely loves being part of a team he now calls his second family. All the instructors are fantastic, and I would recommend Murrayhill Martial Arts to everyone! I promise you won't regret it!
I absolutely LOVE how my 10 year old daughter went from being shy and bullied at school to a strong and confident girl that can defend herself even if I’m not around!! And for THAT I am eternally grateful! And along the way she has found new friends and she’s ALWAYS excited for her classes!
Instructors and office staff always go BEYOND taking care of my concerns and are very pleasant to talk, to deal and to work with!
My family LOVES and THANKS Murrayhill Martial Arts!
I promise you won’t regret giving this opportunity to your child!
This organization is first class. We enrolled our son, who was having behavioral challenges, at age 4, and over the past 3 years MHMA has helped shape him into a confident, accomplished, and attentive little man. The staff are incredible and they offer opportunities for kids to not only learn martial arts but also to participate in the teaching. Highly recommended to anyone looking for the best in martial arts training.
My family joined Murrayhill Martial arts almost a year ago. The quality of the classes and attitude of staff is incredibly good. My son loves every class, staff at Murrayhill plays a great role in shaping his character. They earns my highest recommendation.
My daughter loves going to Murrayhill Martial Arts! The classes are organized, engaging, and fun.
Fantastic organization. The instructors and coaches are wonderful with the kids and do a great job teaching/practicing kindness, respect, patience, perseverance, etc. Their positive coaching and teaching style is valued and appreciated. Our kiddos have enjoyed attending their classes, camps, and after school program. I also greatly appreciate how easy they are to work with. Highly recommend.
My kids absolutely love it here! The instructors are amazing, and they know how to combine fun with discipline in a way that kids respond.
Awesome instructors and always a positive environment. Awesome for kids AND adults!!! Always something new to learn!!!!
Ever since the Covid pandemic rocked our world, we have been searching for ways to maintain our mental and emotional well-being. For teens, this has been an even more difficult feat. Adolescence is already fraught with stress and moodiness but adding in the social isolation and fear have led to an even greater rise in […]
As children grow and develop, it is important that they engage in activities that stimulate various regions of the brain, including the release of neurotransmitters such as oxytocin and endorphins.

Every day children are faced with increased amounts of pressure to work harder, learn more quickly, and manage their emotions. This is especially true for 10 to 14-year olds due to their intellectual growth during this period. However, this pressure is unhealthy for them and can lead to anxiety and depression. The premise of the […]
When we hear the word “learn” we often think of children sitting in a classroom, at a desk, with a teacher educating students on a particular subject. We rarely ever imagine playing a game as a teaching and learning tool. However, the benefits of utilizing this can span more developmental areas than learning about a […]
When people generally think of “play” they think of fun and games…something simply for amusement and nothing more. However, there is a bigger, and more important, piece that is often overlooked…learning. As Kay Redfield Jamison said, “Children need the freedom and time to play. Play is not a luxury. Play is a necessity.” The same […]
Play is often overlooked as a learning tool for children. Dictionary.com defines play as “engaging in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose.” It is seen as a type of “free time” when nothing else important is happening. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth. For 3 to 4-year-old […]
The tween and teen years often feel to parents and teachers like they are back at the “terrible twos” stage. The challenges of working with children at this age can be frustrating.
