Excellent martial arts academy. Brian combines practical, no-nonsense training with traditional techniques, creating a welcoming and challenging environment. Highly recommend for anyone looking to grow in both skill and discipline
Brian, the owner/instructor at Full Potential Martial Arts, does a great job of teaching a traditional style of karate with a focus on practicality over doctrine or ideology, all while making the art accessible and providing a welcoming environment. My daughter, a martial arts newbie, and I, a martial arts oldie, both greatly enjoy Brian's instruction. Like others posting here, I am very glad to have discovered Brian's school.
I have been training at Full Potential Martial Arts Academy for some time now, and I have to say, it’s been a fantastic experience. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the welcoming atmosphere. The instructor is not only skilled but genuinely passionate about teaching. The time is taken to ensure that everyone, regardless of skill level, feels included and supported. Highly recommended!
We have used other martial arts outfits for my 12 year old in the past. Full Potential Martial Arts is by far the best we have encountered. It is taught by the owner/sensei Bryan who has a genuine interest in spreading the knowledge. It focuses on true self defense techniques which are very practical rather than endless drills that most other places require. My 12 year old really enjoys the classes and looks forward to them . This is a hidden gem and I am so glad we found it. I would highly recommend Full Potential Martial Arts and Sensei Bryan.
Our daughter has absolutely loved her experience! New to martial arts, Full Potential MMA is extremely empowering for our daughter. The self-defense skills she's learned have helped her become even more confident. She looks forward to class each week. The other students -- teens and adults -- have been incredibly welcoming. If you're on the fence, try an introductory class. Brian, the instructor, is incredibly kind and focused on helping each student be the best version of themselves.
