Grandmaster Carlito Bonjoc (Founder of MATA SA BAGYO Serrada Escrima-Filipino Martial Arts)

My two daughters, ages 8 and 11, are gaining crazy amounts of self confidence and body awareness from their martial arts classes. They have both told me that they love learning how to defend themselves, and love challenging themselves to learn new techniques. We hope this will be a life-long journey for them!

Discovery Martial arts has been much more than just a "Dojo" to me- it has a very family oriented feel- the owners & instructors make students feel welcome and confident from the moment you first step in the doors. In my personal circumstances I haven't been able to attend as many classes as I would like due to ( off site ) injury and hectic work hours- but whenever I do have the time to walk through those doors there is a genuine feeling of acceptance and a high level of thought that is put into each training by the instructors- I only wish that I had more time to take advantage of the wonderful classes offered at the school- it truly is a home away from home that just happens to teach a very effective and modern ( although deeply rooted in historical lineage) form of martial arts that is relevant from class #1.

Love love love! The Sensei's are AMAZING with the little kids! They teach focus, strength & self control. My son is thriving from these classes!
