Vinjos Martial Arts 408 Upchurch Street, Apex, NC 27502

"We LOVE Vinjos!! Thank you for your amazing teachings, teaching style, everlasting encouragement and helping our daughter feel strong and successful while also learning focus and discipline and respect. Such a gift you both give and we are lucky to have found you."

"Vinjos Martial Arts provides a great environment for my boys. Vinjos is a fantastic local martial arts shop that has truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by the friendly smiles of the owners, who went above and beyond that day and ever since. What makes Vinjos truly exceptional is their commitment to the martial arts community. They have an after school program and frequently host events such as Nerf night, dodgeball, and parents night out. Around the holiday, parents night out is key! Plus, the owners are involved with business events and parades so you see them active in the community. They create a welcoming and inclusive environment for practitioners of all levels. Prices are competitive. The best part of this is what the boys get out of the end of each lesson with topic of being better, whether it’s about listening to your parents, being kind to everyone, handling bullies or conflict at school, or being the best version of yourself, it makes it all worth it. If you're passionate about martial arts and are in search of a hidden gem in our local martial arts community, we couldn’t recommend them more!!"

"My 7 year old daughter currently attends Karate classes at Vinjos and absolutely LOVES it! The husband and wife duo are amazing! They’re fantastic with the kids, they stay on them to be respectful to others and teach them to avoid fighting but also how to defend themselves if they’re attacked. In addition to karate they frequently talk to them about values and remind them to listen to their parents, even to clean up after themselves at home. Highly recommend this family owned dojo!"

"If I could design the perfect martial arts program for my 8 year old son, this would be it. Every class is a combination of classic martial arts skills, self defense, respect, life lessons and wisdom that we all learned could use. Combine that with instructors who could teach an army boot camp but have the skills of the greatest kindergarten teacher and you have perfection. Not only have I seen growth in my son with how he treats others but I’ve also gotten to see him have pride in himself. We joined after hearing about it from our neighbor and I am thankful they let know about it as this seems like something my son needed in his life."

"My 10 yo son has recently started classes at Vinjos and it has been a wonderful experience for him! I love that they teach a variety of martial arts disciplines with focus on self defense…And always tying lessons about effort, attitude and respect with each class. We’ve seen great improvements already in our son’s level of motivation and self confidence. He looks forward to every class!!"
