This has been such an amazing experience for my 7 year old son. After only 4 months we have noticed a boost in his confidence and self esteem. We regularly catch him reminding himself to focus which he learned from Mr. Sackett. He takes these lessons into school and sports now also. Highly recommend!
Mr. Sackett is amazing with my son. He has tremendous patience and understanding with Neurodivergent kids. Very accommodating to families in all aspects. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for Martial Arts classes for their kiddos. We attended quite a few trial classes and by far he was the one with the most understanding and patience.
FMAC is absolutely fantastic. Our organization has partnered with them for years now because they align with our mission to keep our youth engaged in healthy behaviors that promote wellbeing long-term. Each year, the dojo shows up full force to do a karate demonstration and the crowd loves it. Adam is a great guy who really cares about his community and it shows through his involvement and the passion of the kids he teaches. I don't have kids, but if I did, I would be sending them here.
