Martial Way Self-Defense Center

"My kids (ages 6 & 8) have been here for over a year, Sensei Dave is magic. He is literally the best teacher we've ever encountered, he is knowledgeable, patient, encouraging but creates solid boundaries and sets expectations and goals. I can't imagine doing martial arts with anyone else."

"Great Place for kids to learn martial arts! Sensei & Mr. E are great instructors!"

"What a gem! This is a wonderful studio with committed teachers and a remarkable philosophy. My rambunctious 5 year old looks forward to his class each week, and I get to see a side of him that I don't usually see -- he is focused and determined, takes his practice s9 seriously and has a ton of fun. Dave (Sensei) & Mr. E are so calm and encouraging, they lead with positivity and it inspires my kiddo to achieve. I'm so glad we found this studio and I expect we'll be returning for many years. Highly recommended, especially if you're looking to introduce your kids to the world of martial arts."

"We had such a great time at Martial Way! My partner and I both train in different martial arts (karate and capoeira) and are visiting friends in Burlington who train with Sensei Dave at Martial Way. We asked if we could attend class with them, and Sensei was incredibly welcoming to us. The class was wonderful, really informative with a great mix of techniques as well as flow from one exercise to the next. We would love to come back and would definitely recommend Martial Way to anyone looking to try martial arts, whether experienced or brand new to it."

"I’ve been coming here for over a year and absolutely love it. I had never taken martial arts before, so I was a little nervous about whether or not I would feel comfortable. Martial Way is such a welcoming, inclusive, and genuinely fun place to learn martial arts. I feel empowered through all the practical self-defense techniques I’m learning, and I always look forward to coming to the mat."
