I would give this place 6 stars if I could! Hands down, this school is amazing! The instructors are all wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable! The other students quickly become friends; from day one I felt welcomed! The vast amount of knowledge at this school is mind blowing (which is often how my brain feels at...

I’m a practitioner under the PTK-SMF/ Filipino Martial Arts and DX programs and I’ve been so impressed with the dedication and experience Edwin imparts on me and his students.
