Prestige Martial Arts Reviews

My son really likes the classes here and he is more open minded to the changes than before!

My children attended classes virtually with Shihan throughout the pandemic. It kept them happy and healthy and I couldn’t be more grateful. He is a kind and patient teacher and truly cares about the development of the kids. The *only* reason we are not continuing with Prestige is because we live in a different state and my children want to switch to in person. I highly recommend this program.

My daughter has joined Prestige since two months now and we have seen great difference in her. She has not only leaned the Karate skills but also soft skills, confidence building and leadership skills as well. Shihan is the best coach and does excellent job. I highly recommend this Karate class to anyone.

My son has gained confidence and is learning discipline throughout his daily life that will help him in everything he does, all thanks to Prestige Martial Arts. He loves class and is excited to attend. I love how this martial arts school focuses on building the character of its members every bit as much as it teaches karate. So glad I found Prestige Martial Arts!

I am very impressed with the Prestige Martial Arts Troy method of teaching karate. The students learn MUCH more than karate skills. From my experience with my son during the Covid-19 pandemic, I highly recommend the 'Little Dragons' program to parents who want to help their young children re-adjust and re-enter into the post-Covid world particularly to prepare them for their first years at school.

This is our first time doing Karate with our 9 year old son, and he was admittedly a bit shaky at first. He wasn't used to regular exercise, and had difficulty finishing the class without sitting down a few times for a "break". After a few weeks, under the patient and encouraging teachings of Shihan Denny Strecker, he's showing much more vigor and confidence, getting through classes so much better and really embracing the course. I highly recommend the Leadership class offered as well, as our son is showing much more initiative talking to friends and outreaching to new people, as well as setting up his own personal goals for success!

My son and daughter have been members at Prestige for about a month and couldn’t be happier with our decision to enroll our children here. SHIHAN (the teacher) has a wealth of knowledge to share and has created a very welcoming community. It is clear from the moment you walk in that he is truly dedicated to his craft and to helping kids reach their highest potential. Prestige Martial Art Troy is the best place for kids to acquire the biggest life skill that lacks somewhere else. Our children have already shown improvement in coordination, confidence and seems to have gained a stronger sense of personal responsibility through the program. I love and appreciate the hug I’m getting from my children at least twice every class and the time I spent on discussing on the leadership skills. So If you’re on the fence about trying out the martial arts, definitely start here!

Physical, mental, behavior, discipline, and confidence. All are challenged in a positive manner, the kids have fun, and the results are noticed quickly.

The owner is a nice guy and keeps the kids engaged. My only complaint is the time of the class. I work every week day and it is a challenge to make it to a 5pm class. Otherwise, my daughter loves karate class!

Our boys have been doing karate at Prestige since the end of 2021. Their self confidence has sky rocketed and they are over all happier kids. The structure and discipline is exactly what they needed. They look forward to karate nights and so do us parents! It has been a great family bonding experience both inside the class and out. We highly recommend Prestige to everyone!

The kids truly enjoy learning and Shihan makes Karate fun for them with discipline. Well structured and great principles taught.

We continued our kid's Karate classes even during COVID lockdowns in 2020 since Prestige Martial Arts offered virtual classes. Even today, you have the option to attend Karate classes either in-person (preferred by Shihan :-)) or Virtual.

Great program! It is a perfect balance between physical growth and mental growth. There are not many programs out there for your children that address the many different aspects of your child’s development. Some areas are: Endurance, Confidence, Discipline, and Responsibility to just name a few. We highly recommend this program.

My son started in Little Dragons at six years old, and has been in the kids karate program for almost one year. The improvement I’ve seen in him is tremendous - he has more confidence in taking on tough tasks and he’s able to more effectively work through failure and learn from his mistakes. He has become more positive through the life skills taught by Denny Strecker and has found opportunities to employ new skills at school as well as at home. He is also involved in the Leadership program, learning essential skills and techniques to be a leader at such a young age. His confidence with public speaking as well as his overall demeanor when talking to people - stand tall, eye contact, clear voice are improving with every session. Denny is wonderful with the kids, enforcing standards and expectations in a positive and productive manner to enable each student to grow to be successful in their future. His dedication shows in every class, email, and in all communication to the parents and kids. I highly recommend Prestige Martial Arts for any kid and their parents.

Prestige is a great place to be! My twins tried 2 Martial arts that were close to our house but we weren’t satisfied. When we stumbled upon Prestige, it was a HUGE difference than other Martial arts that we’ve tried.it’s not just about Martial arts, it’s about learning life Skills like discipline ,self esteem and many more. With Shihan ,my twins now are more confident and spread kindness in their school. I highly recommend Prestige!

This has also been a great source of one on one time with Dad. The virtual class option allows us to fit karate into our schedule twice a week, and he does offer a free two week trial. So If you’re on the fence about trying out the martial arts, definitely start here!
